I’d first like to point out I’m a true believer in the power of positivity. A negative mindset feeds itself and makes matters worse. In most cases it’s better to give people the benefit of the doubt; after all, no one’s perfect. Nitpicking is a toxic activity… I also believe self-reflection is an important part of spreading joy and positivity.

Keeping up is not easy and it’s very time consuming.

One moment you’re hounding interviewers for feedback, the next you’re coaching a hiring manager who’s barking up the wrong tree, or otherwise dealing with a candidate whose salary expectations are too far-fetched. It’s a ruff life, but you wouldn’t have it any other way.
