I’ve noticed contractors often get evaluated on outcomes while full time employees get evaluated on politics. It’s an interesting dynamic. Have you noticed this difference too?

Definitely yes! How much you are getting in the way vs helping the right people... Instead of the business. But also I see consultants making up their outcomes big time... I don't know what is worse

That’s a fair point. Outcomes can get fuzzy on both sides. Contractors can overstate impact, and full time roles can reward alignment over results. In the end, when incentives are unclear, everyone optimizes for the wrong thing.

Definitely!! I know a contractor who wants to stay a contractor for that reason. Less politics and potentially more pay. But no stability

Had a really bad day 😞 I don’t know why I keep doing this to myself. Things will be going well and then out of nowhere I get blackout drunk. I am tired of feeling sick and anxious from drinking. I don’t really even want to drink sometimes but do it anyway. Blacked out last night, and still feel sick now. I’ve never shared with anyone that I have this problem, until I found this message board. I have so much anxiety that I won’t be able to get this under control. I feel isolated and sad.

I have a friend who was let go a few months into his first job after college (reason: the manager felt like he wasn't grasping the training content to the level that was expected). He's worried about if he should put the experience on his resume anyway, if he does will recruiters ask why he had such a short time at this place, and what will recruiters think if he explains he was let go. What are some things recruiters expect from candidates in this situation to continue considering them?

Does anyone have a go-to "odd" or unconventional question you like to ask candidates to keep them on their toes or see how they react when put on the spot?
