“What Else Should I Be Asking You?”Detecting Thinking Skills

Guidelines for Candidates

October 19th, 2005

Christian Sepulveda has a lovely post, Guidelines for Being a Strong Job Candidate. Some of his gems (these are all from his post):

  • A prospective employer has no attention span whatsoever.
  • You are selling yourself to an employer.
  • What would make it a “no-brainer” to hire me?

Notice his emphasis on communication skills given that he does Agile projects. It’s worth a read.
