Sounds like the interviewer is trying to get in someone’s pants.

Soft skills are also a matter of time in correct environment.

The cool thing about Zoom interviews is if the interviewer wastes your time like this, you can just disconnect and you didn't waste your whole day.

Not cringe. It’s thoughtful.

What are you supposed to say to this? “When balance sheets don’t balance…?”

Satire OP?

Soft skills are absolutely important and part of a good interview process, but hard skills are still necessary and important. Soft skills alone won't get the work done. You don't hire a candidate with 10 years of law experience to do software engineering work just bc they learned one coding language and are "ready to tackle some challenges!".

Inexperienced people should be cut out during the resume review process and not even make it to an interview. Typically by the time I’m interviewing someone I want to see if they’ll mesh well with the team, get some more information regarding experience, and see if their work style aligns with the culture. For example, our training program isn’t very robust so we need people who can learn independently. All that can be found without asking deeply personal questions. I’m not telling a rando what “breaks my heart.” The interviewer can go somewhere else to satisfy their drama fetish.

Interesting. Let’s see if the uptick In cases continues to drive an uptick in hospitalizations and then in fatalities. Depends on how many of the cases are incidental or in very young people not prone to severe cases. But either way, look at the hospital capacity utilization figures! This is the untold story. Were we bending the curve to avoid unnecessary deaths due to overcrowded hospitals, or were we bending the curve to buy time for treatments and vaccine, or just to slow fatalities?

on the way to an interview this morning eating a sandwich. I walked past a homeless man who had a stray cat perched on his lap. He asked for a bite of sandwich to feed them both as they hadn’t eaten in days. I gave the whole sandwich over and headed off to the interview. As I got to the interview room there was a large executive chair facing away from me. The chair turned and on top was a mirror. When looking in the mirror I could see the cat. I am the cat. Truly inspirational when you work hard

I woke up today tired.

My work cell was buzzing and then I remembered something.

I forgot to thank the bus driver that dropped me off a few days ago.

I got up and rushed downstairs to find the bus driver.

It was raining outside but I was already running barefoot to the bus stop.

I stood there soaked in my pajamas as the bus approached.

Then, the door opened. The driver got up and shook my hand.

I sat down and started my shift.

I’m the bus driver. Reminder to love and thank yourself.
