UX, Engineering, and Technology. Recruiting and Hiring in a Digital Age. December 26, 2011. Prospective employees should be excited about the job and the company before they even reach the interview. Often, hirers function in a vacuum of feedback. Those looking for jobs often tread cautiously, and, once they have the job, there’s little point in giving a review to the hiring manager or recruiter who handled them.

Voices in my head. Dr Werner, you are a singularity of stupid. We all know that homeopathy is really stupid, just like most alternative medicine. However, when I saw this “lecture”.

UX, Engineering, and Technology. December 30, 2011. And now for something completely different! I wrote this as an assignment for a creative writing class when I was 14 — Looking back, I have no idea how I had any friends either. I Wish I Were Prime. 8220;I wish I were prime,” said number 9. 8220;instead of divisible by three. It must be heaven, for 3, 5, and 7,. But the pattern stops with me! 11 and 13 can be disconcerting,.

UX, Engineering, and Technology. January 10, 2012. 8220;What do you do for fun? Of all the questions in a job interview, “What do you do for fun” is the one that constantly trips me up. My typical response (after a brief look of panic) is something like this: “Well, I like… the internet… I spend a lot of time on it. I like researching, stuff… Like programming… and internet stuff.”. Even hobbies that are remotely related to the job (“I love learning about cool new things to do with jQuery! No, no, I’...
