Looking for hiring input. I have two great internal candidates. One has been with the company for 10 years and is well connected/respected/resourceful. She has a non-traditional path to the field.

The other candidate has 3 years at the org w/solid prior professional experience. Although, she is less known because she’s not all that visible based on her role/involvement.

I am torn on the decision as are my co-panelists. What factors do you consider when you have two very strong candidates?

Crying for my RSUs….started at my company about 6 months ago and got some RSUs split over 3 years.

Stock price has been cut in half since then, along with my RSU value. 😭 how do I cope?

Hi, this is a bit early but thought y’all might have some good insight. I’m exiting my current startup & have two offers on the table 1. A successful small startup in NYC doing PE/niche executive recruiting and 2. a fairly reputable PE consulting group in Austin. I’m going through the recruitment process at McKinsey for a middle/back office role (capabilities for a really cool space) but by the time I hear back, one of my offers won’t be on the table. Any advice on what’s best for MBA apps?

1) there were obvious favorites (coaches are not even hiding that fact);
2) some can’t even play and got on the team,
3) some that can obviously play but did not get on the team;
4) decision were obviously made before the first day was over.
