| Executive Recruitment | Visit my website 1d. I had a candidate once that wouldn't participate in an interview at 7am. It was too much of an "early start" for him. + Follow He said "I'm not chasing after them mate, they can meet me at a reasonable time of day or I'll pull out". So, I cancelled the interview. I told the client, and we both agreed, that we'd done a Donald (Dodged a bullet). In the construction industry, where early mornings are part of the working world... It was genuinely a moment that took me back. Some people would consider 7am, lunch time in construction so this was on another level. And just to make matters worse He was unemployed. 181 18 comments

Joseph Jewell • 2nd + Follow Recruiter that Codes 5d. Pro tip: Thank you notes are a thing of the past. You can't send a thank you note and expect it to change the outcome of an interview. If you want to set yourself apart in this market, you have to do more than that. If you want to truly stand out, truly be unforgettable... send a ransom note. Make sure it's hand written(by the person you have temporarily acquired possession of) and have it delivered via certified mail, requiring a signature. Boom, immediate feedback.

Coltin Caverhill • 3rd+ Engineering Manager at Yelp 4d. • + Follow Managers, be very careful what you say to your engineers! I commented in a slack thread. It was a simple comment of "I wish we had feature X". I thought I was being fun. I thought it would get emoji responses and we would move on. The engineers solved it. Do you know how much we pay Software Engineers!? I did not mean for them to work on this thing and solve my issue. But they wanted to make things better, and if the manager points out an issue, they felt like it should be solved. This was not a big deal, and not a ton of time was spent, but it was a good reminder for me that I am not an engineer, I am a manager. And while that title is mostly meaningless to me, it means something to others. What I say magically holds more gravity not because of the merit of the statement, because of the title I hold. By not being mindful about what I share in our public channels, I led my team to spend time on the wrong thing. CO 2,345 297 comments • 52 reposts
OPENTOWORK Jason Roeder. 3rd+ Copywriter/Comedy Writer/Editor/... 1w. + Follow I immediately remove my shoes and socks upon entering any interview. Why do I do this? If they say nothing, I know they will not enforce even the most fundamental dress code. I cannot work in such chaos. If they tell me to put them back on, I know conformity reigns in this workplace, and my creativity will suffer. I cannot work there. If they tell me to put one sock and shoe on, I know they value balance and compromise. Only then will I work there.
