How To Lose Your Shot at a Job Interview

Question of the week comes in from Brian in Pennsylvania. Yes for the second time in a row I am answering my own question.

“What are the big problems you are seeing first-hand as you review applicants to your job openings?”

Great question Brian. As you all should know I’m hiring for three roles, and I’m in the weeds of resumes, phone calls and interviews. It’s awesome. Seriously, I love being in this conversation. BUT, there is also a ton of tidbits I want to share with you all.
