“If you’re looking for a candidate, you need to understand what candidate you’re looking for and what position you’re putting them in and you also would have to consider the background the candidate is coming from.”

“I recommend always meeting the candidate face to face. I don’t think, when you are hiring for a sales position, a phone interview or even a video interview is sufficient for you to be able to judge the person.”

“Millennials nowadays, they’d rather be at an entry-level position rather than working for someone they don’t like. They wouldn’t put themselves in a position where they would be miserable everyday having to deal with a boss whose personality is terrible.”
