  • interviewing workshop

    from vhamer on Jun 04, 2008 04:30 PM
    hey talkers -
    
    a couple of people have requested a 'how to do an interview' workshop.  
    tips for grilling people who want to work here, reading into what  
    they're *really* saying, and making them feel comfortable enough that  
    they spill their soul, etc. i've been really remiss about actually  
    doing this, but i'd like to, and i imagine it could be pretty fun.
    
    1) is this still an interesting topic? i'll make a special effort to  
    get relatively new folks to it
    2) any date prefs?
    
    i could do it as early as june 17th. i might actually like to do it  
    that day if that wouldn't cause talk overkill on the schedule. i'd  
    probably want to hold the talk on the first floor.
    
    -v

    I'm interested in this, even being one of the not-new people.  As an aside, I've found interviewing people a very rewarding aspect of working at TOPP.  I'm sure my skills have grown since being here (before, I had zero experience at interviewing), but still would like more guidance.

    I'm very interested, but I will be gone to Portland that day!  As  
    will a lot of people I think.
    
    If you can wait, I would love to hear it, but I'm happy to check the  
    notes after too.

      Hm, it does look like we'll have quite a few people out of the office 
      that week.  I've already talked to Phil about (updating the wiki!) and 
      giving a talk on the 26th, maybe the week after that (um. July 3 if 
      you're going for the Thursday?) would be good.
      
      Definitely sounds like a good talk, I'd like to make sure this one gets 
      well documented on the wiki.

        Sure, that week sounds good to me. I'll plan on July 2nd (say during  
        lunch? 12:30?), as I imagine some people won't be around on the day  
        before July 4th.
        
        Es gut?

    Hey -
    
    So I hadn't officially announced it I guess, but I was thinking of  
    doing the interview workshop next Wednesday, July 2. Looks like I  
    probably won't have time to prep for that day, so I need to  
    reschedule. Any objections to July 10th?

          Ah, summer travel. Yeah, looks like a ton of people will be out that  
          week. Let's plan on the week after then...that's Thurs July 17th.  
          We'll still have some folks out, but far fewer.
          
          Does that sound better? Dwinslow, does that sound alright to you? I  
          (maybe incorrectly) associate you with Talks knowledge and decision- 
          making.

            Sounds good to me (and yes, I am the knower and occasional 
            decision-maker for TOPP Talks so it actually matters ;)  However, Bryan 
            has a talk in the works and a bit harder deadline for giving it than you 
            so I'll reserve the right to bump you if needed to make that happen 
            before he leaves.  I don't think it'll be an issue.
