Anyone hiring in the Twin Cities? Seems like it’s a LOT more of “who you know” here vs. other places I’ve been.

I’m from there. You’re absolutely right about relationships. I know it sounds hokey but the best thing I’ve seen is connecting with university alumni groups or tapping your LinkedIn network like mad to ask for connections. Minnesota nice isn’t so nice.

"minnesota nice” refers to the passive-aggressiveness of minnesotans. meaning, they’ll be nice to your face, but that’s all. so yes, who you know there matters a great deal.

Minnesota also loves to butter you up in interviews and tell you how much they like you... and then you’ll never hear from them again.

Lots of advice to not do BBDO Minneapolis (bad reputation in town) but thanks for the Wunderman tip! And totally agree- MN “nice” sucks esp when job hunting.

Very specific to retail and/or hospitality in-house roles: has anyone found a good solution for predictive scheduling? Our retail division has one set of software for scheduling and one for payroll, and neither of them can handle predictive scheduling compliance issues unless they’re used for both the scheduling and payroll functions. I’m coming up empty on ideas for them to bridge the gap, but I’m also new to my compliance counsel role, so I would be overjoyed if anyone has suggestions.

I had a job interview for a role that I really want. The hiring manager scheduled me for an interview and did not show up. Emailed me an hour later stating that he got super busy and couldn’t attend, and would like to reschedule. This is a major red flag, but I can’t help but feel that I am missing out since this role pays 50% over what I currently make. Should I let the recruiter know? What’s your take on this?
