Don't ask people negatively slanted questions. That's not an energy and creativity and calling on the best in people inducing strategy. Makes people shrink and worry about how to answer in a PC way in order to appease your expectations and you learn nothing about what makes them excited about who they are and what they bring.

I would ask them about one or two projects in their book(s) in some depth

Ask them about their concepting process. If they have one. Pick one project in their book and ask them to explain three things that make it work so well. Both questions show their thought processes and ability to describe and present good work

What do you two fight over the most? Who usually offers to make peace first?

I’ve always wanted to be asked why we think we work as a team .... I feel like I have a good answer for that but no ones ever asked.

Love it.

I need some insight. Just had a phone interview for a management job in healthcare. I felt comfortable and felt like the interview went well. I ask questions and the ACNO said that I asked great questions. They said that they had other interviews to do as well but said the next step is to bring me in for an on-site interview (I live 1,000 miles away) and that the recruiter would be reaching out. Thoughts? I’m going to drive myself crazy analyzing everything.

Does anyone think it’s a good idea to beg for a job and put your personal life out there to get sympathy, because that is what I am seeing every day on LinkedIn and then the recruiters and everybody will comment and send the jobs and they will end up with a job or interview the next day.
I’m getting close to the point of doing that because it seems like it is working.

Hi! So i've been doing "all the things i was supposed too" since i graduated. I have two masters dgs, my admin cert, 15 years teaching, and all that good stuff.

I have a photo business that I have been doing part time for yrs and it's becoming just as lucrative as teaching, with so much less stress. A part of me wants to just quit and do that full-time am I wasting all that education? Thoughts? do it?
