A test of patience... really?

Jerry Doubles @jerrydoubles Follow An employer invited six people for an interview by 7:00AM, they were all dressed and sharp before the time. He told them to wait. By 3:00PM, 3 had left. By 6:00PM, he came and met only 2. They got the job. That was the interview. Test of PATIENCE.

Red flag?

Sean Szurko. 1st Chief Technology Officer at Compounding Edges 11h- HUGE RED FLAG When Hiring a Developer I recently interviewed a candidate with a strong background. Solid experience, good culture fit-seemed promising. Then, after the interview, they hit me with this: "I'm currently making $75,000. I won't move forward unless I'm guaranteed $80,000." Immediate red flag. Their current role? Writing a mere few thousand lines of code a week. Playing it safe. Probably doing things like "testing" and "writing maintainable code." This role? A $75,000 base with a clear, realistic path to $150,000+-all performance-based, of course. Every line of code earns you a spot on our company leaderboard .Top contributors get monthly cash bonuses. The truly hungry ones are pushing tens of thousands of lines per day. And yet, this candidate was stuck on the base salary. Here's the issue... Great developers don't play for the guarantee. They play for the leaderboard. They know that true compensation isn't some fixed paycheck-it's about how fast and how much you ship. If a developer is worried about a stable salary instead of their ability to brute- force success, they're telling me everything I need to know: They're not a high performer. They'd rather coast at a comfortable 2,000 lines of code a week instead of gunning for the elite 20,000+ club. That's not a 10x Engineer. That's a red flag. #Hiring #TechCareers #CodeMore Earn More #Leaderboard Culture #RealDevelopersShip ECO Darren Terhune and 55 others 71 comments · 1 repost •

Poor guy

Imagine logging into LinkedIn and seeing your wife put you on blast Stacey Champagne in. 2° Founder & CEO @ Hacker in Heels Award-Winnin... 19 horas. + Seguir I had multiple clear-cut career accomplishments in 2024. My husband? Zero. No certifications. No college courses completed. No documentary features. No awards. "How do you *do* that?!" I asked from across the dining table, "how are you able to go through a whole year without doing any of these sort of things and be OK?" He didn't have a response. There is so much to unpack and learn from an exchange like this. Specifically-what's standing in the way of MY ability to be content without conventional markers of accomplishment? My gut says that this is a question that many people, namely high- performing women, grapple with too. I don't have an answer, but I'm curious what your thoughts are: Could you go a year without a single new certification, interview, award, promotion and be OK with yourself for it? Would you think of a colleague, direct report, manager, friend, or spouse differently for not doing so? #womenincybersecurity #cybersecurity #certifications #careerdevelopment

Attached is a photo in the hospital

Bonnie Oppenheimer. 3rd+ Real Estate Recruiter and Team Builder | ... 18h . + Follow This was me a few weeks ago, 24 hours after giving birth to my 3rd daughter. Why was I on my work computer? Great question let me tell you. My baby decided to arrive over a month early, and even though I thought I was prepared to transition to parental leave, I still had a lot to do. So- for all the expectant parents out there in 2025 let me give you some tips: Create a shared folder for you and your managers with whatever documents they might need. Write out a transition document that outlines what projects you are working on, what the status is on those projects and where you need them to take over. Build out a list of key contacts and relationships for your managers to have access too. Make sure everything is updated in your CRM or whatever software your company might use. Most importantly- start talking about your transition early (like 12+ weeks before you go on leave) so everyone can be on the same page. I never expected to have my daughter over a month early, but having clear communication with my managers and these documents were in all of our successes moving forward. I'm also using this as a formal announcement that I will not be online as much and will be soaking in all the newborn cuddles and focusing on my family. Feel free to send me a DM. And my posts will be back in a few months.

"Without batting an eye, I said, "Neither. I would rather pay you $10,000 a week." Shocked, he replied, "That's insane. No economic model would suggest to do this." "Insane?" I replied. "Not at all. If you give me money, I lose my drive. I go soft. I might as well roll over and die. If I give you money, it makes me hungry. I have to grind to make more. I have to hustle. The only thing 'insane' is that more people don't think like me."

That's just wrong

Drew Szurko • 2nd Chief Data Officer @ Compounding Edg... 5h + Follow I tell candidates the job is remote. They accept. Then I tell them it's in-office. They still show up. It's not lying - it's strategy. Companies struggling to hire are missing the point: the best candidates want remote work. If I listed a job as in- office from the start, I'd lose half the talent pool before the conversation even started. Here's what I do instead: 1 Post the role as remote to attract top-tier applicants who wouldn't consider us otherwise. 2 Take them through the hiring process and get them invested in the team, the mission, and the opportunity. 3 Once they accept the offer, I clarify the in-office requirement. And despite what you might think, most don't walk away. By that point, they've already committed. They've turned down other opportunities. They've built momentum. Starting the job search over is more of a hassle than just showing up to the office. It's not deception. It's strategy. And in a competitive hiring market, it's outright genius. If that bothers you, keep struggling to fill roles. I'll be busy building a winning team. #Hiring #TalentStrategy #WorkplaceCulture #AdaptOrLose OCO 20 41 comments • 1 repost
