    The hard skills you’ll need to be able to solve technical interview problems are necessary, but it’s also critically important to work on your soft skills. From a high-level, there are two qualities you really want to exhibit in a coding interview: Confidence and humility. At the end of the day, companies don’t hire people. People hire people who are enjoyable to work with. Don't trash talk your past coworkers. No one going to hire you out of pity.

    Job hunters are not getting an accurate picture of the job market. Companies place phantom jobs to build a pipeline of candidates for the future. Fake jobs are used to show that the company is doing well and growing while everyone else is floundering. Many jobs are posted on the company website and end up on job aggregation sites. To the job seeker, the roles look new, but they are months old, and most have been filled already. The company can gain a sense of the marketplace by posting phantom jobs.

  • 10 Characters That Will Teach You How to be Charismatic

    This story was originally published on HackerNoon at: https://hackernoon.com/10-characters-to-draw-charismatic-guidance-from-81b653c7eecf.


    In the book, The Charisma Myth, by Olivia Fox Cabane, she presents an overabundance of great advice, some of which may sound odd at first, but it always proves worthwhile. One thing that has stuck with me was her advice to think of 10 charismatic people or characters. Then, I should imagine these 10 people sitting on a board of directors inside my head, and whenever I face a challenge, I can refer to my 10 board members for guidance. I can ask them questions, and imagine what they would say.

    Job recruiters don’t require a college degree, certifications, licensing or accreditation. Fast-growing sectors, such as the tech industry, attract recruiters, some of whom might move on to the next hot industry later. Most job recruiters and firms work on a contingency basis, with no exclusivity offered or a monetary reward for trying, but not succeeding in the search. The life of a job recruiter is intensely competitive. The dynamics make the recruiter lavish time, attention and love on the few strong contenders.

    It's becoming increasingly important to keep your team motivated without using a "carrot and stick" approach that puts employees at risk of a nervous breakdown or burnout. There are simple ways to help your team thrive and be happy. Here are three unconventional life hacks that I use myself. One of them is the practice of forced vacation. This is a day off that I give to a person without giving them prior notice. I send a funny certificate with a checklist of "duties" for the day: eat right, sleep well, take a walk, breathe fresh air, and relax. Everything is strict: the certificate is canceled when the person begins to respond to emails and messages.

    Reflective writing about your work history is not normally considered a step towards making a résumé. On the other hand, it may actually become a great way to advance the process if you engage in it and then use tools like ChatGPT to atowards a draft.

    How To Use the "10/50/99" approach to give feedback to your team can save you from making your team cry. This is when the 10/50% approach saved me. It gave me a way in. It saved me from getting upset and allowed me to share the missing context at the right moment. It’s been written about once or twice and those reads might be too Google-like. It's a simple framework that can be written about how exactly is exactly 10/99/99%.
