The art of conversation improves odds on the interview

If you’ve been on an interview (or a recruiter who sets them up daily) then you understand when an interview goes right.

Why I Love BSG Alliance

First, I have a crazy sense of loyalty to Steve Papermaster. The man gave me my first job out of college,

and kept in touch with me in the intervening years. When he was ready

though I’d been out of the paid workforce for 6 years. He’s engaging,

funny as all-get-out, and someone who people just… Continue
