So after taking the summer off, I either need to do my own thing full time or find a new gig. Job market here in this area seems tight and today's labor print confirms that. Things feel like there are slowing and I suspect a resssion is on the horizon if not already here, that is if they don't cook the books to paint a rosy picture.

How do you find it in your areas?

Being on the "finding" side it works in my favor. Less red tape is better. Having sat on the "hiring" side, it's always bothered me that we make a decision based on one or two conversations, but why put people through the wringer, just because you can. That's how you loose potential talent. It also surprises me how many mediocre candidates there are out there. Good people are always employable.

I still find the hiring process strange. One or two conversations and bang. Your hired. No multiple rounds with this team and that team, despite being a high level role. They found me, liked what they saw and the rest just seem to fall into place.


This is how it was before google started the whole modern hiring process fad and everybody else decided to ape it.


Don't forget Chindians lying on their resumes. You can't trust a single word there anymore.
