What are your opinions on Personality Hires? With the job marked being where it is today, skills and experience sure aren’t the only things setting a candidate apart. I feel like I am also a personality hire because I had less experience than the candidates who interviewed with me.
Do you consider yourself to be a Personality Hire?

Prob depends on your job! Especially, if it’s 6 figures. That might work though in other fields. Skillset & culture fit & soft skills.

Hi Everyone. I am applying for a few design positions and I just got a response from a company that wants me to do a short video as part of a campaign.
