Going to the Portland Recruiting Roadshow?

June 19, 2008 · Filed Under Current Events 

If you are going to the Portland Recruiting Roadshow tomorrow, I will be there. I would describe what I will look like but I haven’t arranged my outfit for the day. If any HR/Recruiter people are going to be there who regularly (or irregularly) read this blog, I’d love to hang out and make fun of the presentations. Or you could sit over in the corner and just stare at me and wonder “Hey, is that the guy from that blog?”

      I sat in a chair that was reserved for a speaker to sign copies of his book. Turns out I have no manners and I just assume that an empty seat is mine to take.

    • Kennedy Expo: The Cyber Lounge & Politics
      I’m hanging out in the cyber lounge with Maren Hogan and Sarah White. Sarah just gave an interesting perspective on work ethics in America. I won’t paraphrase her very passionate argument, but I wonder: Do some Americans lack a worth ethic? How many people do you know who try to buck the system and take advantage of federal [...]

    • Q: How do I work with people who don’t like me?
      A: Ha! Trick title. People who don’t like you don’t work with you. They tolerate you. Out of a lack of options. Until a better option comes along. In fact, the only thing that keeps them engaged with you is the fact that—while unlikable—you’re at least predictable, and they’ve figured out how to get what they need from [...]
