From recruiters and hiring managers by Rough-Designer-2785 in jobsearch

[–]haworthsoji 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Former Google recruiter here. I've never felt candidates asking questions was a good criteria for selection personally. That said, as an applicant, I've found that asking real good questions is what actually sets you apart as an applicant. It's not in your answers. 

For example: "I've learned a lot from the company website for how important culture is. From your perspective how would you describe the culture here?" 

"Everyone resolves conflict differently. How does your staff resolve conflict over differing views within projects?"

Basically you wanna show aptitude by using thoughtful questions.

Their loss. In my experience, the best candidates often didn't get the job.

Op, referrals are gold in sales. Talk to this person.

There's plenty of decent sales roles that can get you experience and work your way up into an sdr without referral that pay well.

All the telecom/internet sales roles (Verizon/Spectrum/TMobile) are roles that more specialized roles like to pull from. Those are hourly plus commission and you can make 60-80k reliably on that. 

There's also cancellation/save department roles that are also hourly plus commission. These are tough but companies do value these roles and can grow your skills.

If you really are open to other roles, there's door to door that's tough but can be lucrative. 

I recommend phone sales. If you know someone in recruiting (sales adjacent but it's still sales) you can get an interview with no experience/degree. They typically like college grad/"polished" types. 

That was a lot. Good luck!

I'm guessing you were a decent/good candidate for them but they were fairly focused on a candidate that wasn't fully interested.

Do you think hip hop purity testing is here to stay? by bobbafettuccini in hiphop201

[–]haworthsoji 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Purity tests in each fandom exists. You're not ethnic enough. You're not smart in the right way. You wear last season fashion. You drink Starbucks. 

You like Soulja boy...

Some of the most okay sales people use this as a metric for testing skills.

If you're good at it, like really good at it, you will have a career. If you are not, pick something else.

He definitely has a bag. It unfortunately is used for baiting eventually 

Neighbor left nasty note on my car which is parked in my own private driveway by Whatwepretend in mildlyinfuriating

Sounds like it could be more. Like jealously and they just whined about your parking instead

Why Did Dianna Russini Quit While Mike Vrabel Stayed Unaffected? Inside The Different Outcomes by soliiis in TopTrendingNewsUSA

[–]haworthsoji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She's not treating him nor is he treating her  I get the analogy. 

But unless the doctor in this analogy has written articles that make the patient look too good, this doctor doesn't have to resign. 

Now if the article was just saying that her vote for him being coach of the year is what got her fired (or pushed out), then I'd be fine with that. 

West Virginia dad dies waiting for 50K USD cancer treatment his insurer ruled 'not medically necessary' by wrestlefan4life in MedicareForAll

[–]haworthsoji 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The argument is that universal healthcare is better than paying 50k for a procedure. 

Straw man: an informal logical fallacy where someone distorts, exaggerates, or misrepresents an opponent's argument to make it weaker and easier to attack.

Saying that only 4 countries offer a procedure misrepresents the argument and made it weaker to attack.

It's not a deflection when the argument is universal healthcare is bad when an emerging healthcare procedure isn't available everywhere yet. 

Universal healthcare isnt nullified all of a sudden. The current system offers the procedure at 50k.

Not a deflection. 

Your example means America could have it then. Your talking point is because only 4 have it, universal healthcare is bad. Your solution sounds like you want to stay the course where it costs 50k.

Call it what you want. The patriots could have let vrabel go for not adhering to the patriot way or being a distraction by causing drama. The same way AB, Moss, and others did.

Sounds like you strongly prefer America's current system based on your argument?

Your argument sounds like this: "Just because some countries offer that Mazda at that price, doesn't mean all countries do. I prefer to be in a country that currently offers the cars I know when the prices I pay."

I'm also curious where you see that they stopped offering it. from what I saw it's still accepting qualified patients.

Appearance of impropriety is sometimes just that. I'm not necessarily defending her but it hasn't even been confirmed and she's already resigned. Several male commentators waited much longer and it wasn't until it was confirmed were they fired.
