Colorado's H1 VC trends | Jerky company makes a comeback

HackerNoon Reporter: Please tell us briefly about your  background. I’ve been in Colorado since 2006, navigating my career through various-sized technology and marketing/brand companies, learning a lot about growing companies and finding the right talent to grow a successful company. I was also involved in a workplace shooting that gave me purpose to help talent find work that helps them feel meaningful, safe, and included. I also joined the Colorado Technology Association in 2008 where I began to grow my network of tech professionals who would help make the launch of our first company (that would become interviewIA) successful. All this to say that it has been an amazing journey to get to this point. What's your startup called? And in a sentence or two, what does it do? We are interviewIA. For organizations looking to achieve an equitable, data-driven, and repeatable interview experience, interviewIA offers an intelligent interview collaboration platform that powers the interviewers in the talent acquisition process and guides unbiased interviewing and hiring decisions. What is the origin story? We started our first company 5 years ago to research and develop our talent methodology that now powers our tech startup. We all have backgrounds in recruitment, brand awareness, organizational change, training, and technology, all of which helped us develop our interview collaboration platform last year. What do you love about your team, and why are you the ones to solve this problem? We believe that we are uniquely situated to address two key areas where the world is currently experiencing rapid change. First, COVID has created a new way of working, a new way of hiring, a new focus on remote capability, and many challenges around reskilling and hiring overall. Second, the conversation around social inequality, unconscious bias, Black Lives Matter, and a need for systemic change has truly created an opportunity for real action. Our team is so aligned with the passion to help companies match their work with the right candidates who find that same work meaningful to them. We are not only building a technology to facilitate change, we are creating a solution and an ecosystem to support systemic change so that we all learn to hire inclusively and create opportunity for everyone. That’s why I love this team, because it’s the right team to make this a reality. If you weren’t building your startup, what would you be doing? I would most likely be conducting trainings about Bias and Empathy and Team Interaction through the training company I started two years ago called Breaking the Bias. At the moment, how do you measure success? What are your core metrics? Our core metrics as a startup are very simply focused on Monthly and Annual Recurring Revenue. Our success will be measured on velocity and traction to increase those numbers over the next year. What’s most exciting about your traction to date? The most exciting part of our traction as a company is the fact that everyone we talk to absolutely understands how we can help them solve their hiring issues. And our product team has taken an innovative approach to continuously find ways to improve the product and bring new and relevant functionality to the public as quickly as possible. What technologies are you currently most excited about, and most worried about? And why? We have been keenly aware of artificial intelligence’s role in perpetuating bias in the hiring process. Any technologies that are powered by AI that focus on the evaluation of human beings, without involving human beings in that evaluation process, is most likely biased and doing more harm than good. We focus on the ethical use of machine learning and technology that can aid human beings in the interview process, not replace them. Technology, when developed correctly with a diverse group of engineers, product roles, software developers, etc., can most certainly help a person, a team, and an organization get better. I’m excited about scaling the ability to help more people become better interviewers. What drew you to get published on HackerNoon? What do you like most about our platform? We were nominated as one of the Startups of the Year for Colorado Springs. It’s exciting to be recognized by this publication because it’s a recognition by the people who we are trying to help. What advice would you give to the 21-year-old version of yourself? My advice would be to lean into being more curious about all people and looking for ways to create equal opportunities and benefits for all, no matter what I’m doing. What is something surprising you've learned this year that your contemporaries would benefit from knowing? I’ve learned that it takes an intentional effort to become a founder and leader of an organization when you’re used to being an individual contributor. This transition is not to be taken lightly and involves self-reflection and learning from many other perspectives to find your footing. Vote for InterviewIA for Startup of the Year in Colorado Springs!

Hello everyone! My name is Alex Cloudstar, and I've been to over 500 interviews, and let me tell you, it's been quite a journey. Okay, maybe not exactly 500; I obviously didn't count them, but there could actually be more. Whether you're a fresh graduate seeking your first job or an experienced professional looking for a change, the interview process can be intimidating and exhausting. Over the years, I've learned some valuable lessons that can help you ace your interviews and increase your chances of landing that dream job. Here are some tips I've gathered from my extensive experience that could make a significant difference in your next interview: Show Your Passion with Personal Projects: One of the most crucial aspects of a successful interview is demonstrating your passion for the role and the industry. Employers want to see that you're not just interested in the job; you're genuinely enthusiastic about it. A great way to convey your passion is by sharing your personal projects or side hustles. These projects not only showcase your skills but also demonstrate your commitment to your field. If you know me, you probably know that I'm not a fan of CVs, so I usually share my GitHub for this matter. Research the Company: Before you even step into the interview room (or log onto that video call), do your homework. Learn about the company's history, values, culture, recent achievements, and any industry-specific trends. Show that you've taken the time to understand what they do and how you can contribute to their success. When you can speak to your knowledge of the company, it demonstrates your genuine interest in the role. Or at least know the company's name; learn from my past mistakes, haha. Prepare for Technical Questions: If your role involves technical aspects, be sure to brush up on your skills and knowledge. Search online for potential technical questions that might come up during the interview. This preparation will not only boost your confidence but also help you answer with precision and clarity. You don't want to be caught off guard when asked about something fundamental to the job. Also, you can search a fun fact to share about your preferred language, why not. Ask Questions: Interviews should be a two-way street. Remember that you're also evaluating whether the company is the right fit for you. Ask thoughtful questions about the role, the team, the company's vision, and the challenges they face. Engaging in a genuine discussion rather than a one-sided monologue shows your interest and helps build a connection with the interviewer. If it feels right, don't be afraid to make a small joke. Maybe the person interviewing you had a tough day and will appreciate it. Remember, only if it feels right. But here's a vital piece of advice: don't ignore red flags. If the job description is vague or inconsistent, take heed. Negative company reviews on platforms like Glassdoor can reveal concerning patterns. Unrealistic expectations, poor communication, high turnover, or subpar compensation should be red flags. I ignored some in the past, and it wasn't nice. Interviews can be nerve-wracking, especially when you've been to as many as I have. However, each interview is an opportunity to grow and learn. By following these tips and drawing from my experience, you can increase your chances of not just acing the interview but also finding a job that truly aligns with your interests and goals. So go ahead and put these strategies into practice, and remember, each interview is a step closer to your dream job. See ya next week with more valuable info! Also published . here

Everything I've Learned by Interviewing at Hundreds of Companies

Behavioral interviews are the most uncertain type of interview in the tech industry. I've seen many people underestimate the importance of preparing for these interviews, only to fail to receive an offer precisely because of their poor preparation. Fortunately, nailing behavioral interviews does not require months of preparation. In this guide, I will describe the key steps for success in such interviews. I’m a software development manager at Amazon. This article is a reflection of my thoughts and has nothing to do with Amazon or its subsidiaries. Why Do Behavioral Interviews Exist? Companies use behavioral interviews to assess whether you would be a successful hire based on your previous experiences. Thus, the most popular types of questions are example-based, such as “ . Companies test whether: Tell me about a time…” you are a “culture fit,” your previous are sufficient for the role you applied for. scope and impact Not all companies place equal importance on behavioral interviews. You can forget about receiving an offer from Netflix or Amazon if you haven't read about their principles or values. Meanwhile, companies like Google or Microsoft may place less emphasis on this aspect, and you might pass if you avoid showing red flags. Do your research to understand how important the behavioral part is at a particular company. Step 1. Prepare Examples It can be incredibly hard to come up with a good story during an interview, so I’d recommend preparing at least two examples for each bucket of behavioral interview questions. What are the buckets? A I like includes: categorization — challenges involving specific technical skills or knowledge. Technical Problem Solving — learning new skills, mentoring, taking feedback, managing failures, or achieving growth. Professional Growth — situations where you delivered results that impacted the business or project outcomes. Impact and Results — managing conflicts, stakeholders, negotiations, or leading people. Communication and Team Dynamics — handling ambiguity, adapting to change, or offering innovative solutions. Adaptability and Innovation Research the typical question buckets for the company you're applying to. You can’t prepare for all questions, but with a good set of stories, adapting them during the interview becomes quite easy. Don't have enough examples to prepare strong stories? Some might suggest making them up. It works, but I don't like that approach for many reasons. It is not ethical, and it takes more effort than building upon real stories. A better strategy would be to slightly augment your existing stories. That way, you can be more confident in your responses, answer follow-up questions more effectively, and spend less time on preparation. If you don't have a good story to tell during the interview, consider skipping the question. It is much better than giving an inappropriate example. Skipping five questions in a row isn't good, but skipping one or two doesn't hurt, especially if these aren't mainstream questions. Step 2. Use Examples Appropriate for Your Level Telling a story about a conflict with an intern over class naming might be acceptable for a junior-level engineer but not for a senior. Your stories should reflect your seniority level. For a principal or staff level, the examples should impact multiple organizations; for a senior level — at least your team; for a middle level — several people; and for an entry-level position, impacting even one person is acceptable. Strive to broaden your impact as much as possible. Name all organizations and teams impacted, and mention senior-level people involved. Failing to do so may result in being downleveled. Note that having many people involved is not a universal rule. Saving millions by introducing a clever optimization may be within the scope of your team, but this story could be strong enough for a principal-level position. Keep in mind the level you aim to land at and calibrate your answers. Step 3. Demonstrate "Culture Fit" Each company adheres to a specific set of values or principles, which they might call , , or . In essence, these are sets of attitudes and behaviors companies want to see in their employees. Google these values before the interview, and try to frame your answers according to these values. Culture Memos Leadership Principles Core Values Many companies do not document their values; however, behavioral interviews remain as crucial as any other type of interview. Even some well-known businesses, such as , fail to clearly communicate their corporate culture. In that case, I'd recommend the following: Apple Find a YouTube interview with the company's founder or a top manager discussing its culture. Talk with someone from this company, such as a friend of a friend or someone on LinkedIn. Research questions and answers on platforms like Glassdoor. Step 4. Structure Your Answers The standard recommendation for behavioral interviews is to use the (Situation, Task, Action, Result). Unfortunately, even candidates familiar with this method often fail to apply it effectively. The sections that usually present challenges are actions and results. STAR method For actions, it's critical to clarify your personal contribution — use “I” to articulate this. Statements like "We optimized this..." or "We escalated to..." do not clarify your specific role and contribution. Were you the one who optimized this, or was it a team member? Did you personally escalate the issue to a product manager, or was the escalation handled by your manager? Ideally, spend about half of your story's time discussing your actions. For the results, avoid vague statements like “it became faster” or “the project was delivered.” Instead, articulate the specific impact with numbers, even if approximate. More compelling answers might be: “The loading time decreased from 1s to 500ms” or “The project received 4.5 stars on the Apple Store and generated $5 million in revenue.” Adding a brief summary at the beginning of your response can enhance the STAR method. Briefly describing your story from start to finish helps the interviewer follow along and quickly determine if they need to hear more, potentially saving you several minutes of interview time. Step 5. Answer the Specific Question It's easy to misunderstand the question or drift into irrelevant stories due to nerves or misinterpretation. This often happens when candidates fail to actively listen or assume they know what the interviewer is asking without seeking clarification. Providing an accurate and relevant response is critical for demonstrating that you understand the requirements of the role and have the necessary skills. For complex multi-part questions writing them down is a good idea. That way, you can ensure you're answering all parts of the question, not just what you’ve remembered. If the interviewer asks about contributions outside of your area of responsibility, do not describe how you refactored a piece of code belonging to your team or resolved a bug introduced by a colleague. These are your core responsibilities. If the interviewer asks about a conflict, don't describe a brief disagreement where you accepted either point of view after five minutes. Conflict implies prolonged periods of disagreement, such as several weeks. Got a multi-part question about a difficult situation with a customer that significantly affected the business. Don't only describe why this situation was difficult and how it was solved. Write down the question and also explain how it affected the business. Step 6. Ask the Right Questions At the end of interviews, you have 5-10 minutes for your questions. Don’t fall into the trap of thinking the interview has ended — it has not. During the interview, everything matters, and the questions you ask at the end can influence the interviewer's decision on whether you pass or not. To use this time to your benefit, it's important to understand which questions to ask and which to avoid. Avoid HR questions about compensation, work from home, etc. Avoid personal questions about the country of origin, gender, mood, etc. Avoid mainstream questions such as “What does this company do?” or “What is the culture like here?” These show a lack of preparedness on your part. So, what should you ask? Choose questions that prove your interest in the company and suggest that you would be a valuable employee. For instance, ask, “What does success look like for this position?” “How do you manage to stay innovative despite being in the market for decades?” “What does a typical day look like for this position?” and “If I have an idea for a product feature or technical improvement, what is the process to implement it?.” Show that you've done your homework and are knowledgeable about the company and the position. Demonstrate your desire to succeed in this role and to be a team member that everyone would appreciate. Your future manager needs to see your independence (so they don't have to micromanage you) and your desire to achieve shared goals. Step 7. Practice Having impactful stories is critical, but effectively communicating them is key to resonating with interviewers. You might forget a story or struggle with detailing it due to anxiety. Interviewing can be stressful, and sometimes, is the optimal solution as many issues there can often be resolved. Fortunately, practicing behavioral interviews, also known as mock interviews, can significantly reduce stress during actual interviews and better prepare you to describe your experiences in a structured and clear manner. staying at your current job Many online platforms offer mock interviews on a paid basis. There, you can even choose interviewers from a specific company who can provide valuable feedback. This can be a bit expensive, so as an alternative, you can ask your friends to conduct such an interview. I’d recommend having at least three mock interviews before the real ones. Step 8. Impress and Connect Behavioral interviews are subjective by nature. The same story might be evaluated differently by different interviewers or even by the same interviewer under different circumstances. What can you do about this? Connect with your interviewer. Treat the interview as a dialogue, and listen attentively for any hints from the interviewer. Ask if your example fits well if they would like more details about the numbers or impact, etc. Demonstrate engagement and passion in your answers. I’d like to see that you’re interested in working with me. After all, this step is about making a positive impression on your interviewers. Final Thoughts Interviewing is a separate skill. You can be great at your day-to-day work but struggle with interviewing, and vice versa. It is a great investment to develop your interviewing skills, and every interview is a learning opportunity. Reflect on the feedback you receive and continuously refine your approach to become a more compelling candidate in future interviews.

Navigating New RWA Horizons: Rick Schmitz on Bridging Blockchain and Traditional Finance

In the course of talking about job hunting with friends, colleagues, and randos in Slack and elsewhere, I end up talking about resumes. A lot.  There is, (in my (not so) humble) opinion, a sizable misunderstanding  about what resumes are, what they do, how they should look, the effort  one should (or shouldn’t) put into creating them, and more. Given the current period of churn in the tech industry and the resulting uptick in the frequency with which I’m having these types of  conversations, I decided to commit to what’s become a standard part of my  “so you’re looking for a new job?” spiel to paper (or at least  electrons). So… what, in my (again, not so humble) opinion, are resumes meant to do? Contrary to popular belief, common use, and what you may have been told in school at some point, a resume is not a loving, insightful,  and/or detailed retrospective of your work history. It is not meant to  stand as de facto proof of your skills. It is not a biography of your  work. You create (and send) resumes because it’s a required step for the purpose of the application, not because it’s particularly convincing. In the long run, it does very little to make the case for hiring you. After all, people could (and do) write literally ANYTHING on their resume, and there’s no way to validate it until the hiring manager… wait for it now:  Sits down and talk with the candidate! This brings me to my main point: A resume serves EXACTLY one purpose: to entice the recipient to call you for an interview. If you  could send a blank page that said “will bring cookies and beer,” and it  would result in a phone call, you should do that. (Do not do this. It  doesn’t work. Don’t ask me how I know.) Therefore, your primary goals – which will inform both the format and the content of the information you share – are to: Get past the automated HR filters every company uses these days so that a real human sees your resume. Entice that human to set up an initial call, where the REAL interviewing will begin. Let’s talk about item #1 first. And I’ll start with a semi-well-known “resume hack”: White Fonting The idea behind the buzzword is simple: you take keywords and/or the job description itself and include it in your resume, using the smallest  font size possible and coloring the text white, rendering it invisible  to the human reading the page; but the text still registers with the  automated systems that ingest and auto-scan the resume. The required  keywords are detected, and the resume is passed to the next stage. Sometimes. Sometimes, the text actually messes up the experience section on the application, causing the resume to be rejected when it might have  otherwise passed. In other cases, a human sees what’s happened and  rejects the resume because it’s perceived as “cheating”. (My personal  feeling is that using software to auto-filter resumes is cheating, and  cheating a cheat is basically -ing the thing, and I’m 100% team Kirk on this.) Kobayashi Maru That said, it’s clear (to me, at least) that white-fonting is neither reliable nor guaranteed but does work in some cases. Use with caution. Sometimes, it IS Who You Know. As , there is a demonstrable value to having someone on the inside to help  shepherd your resume along the application journey. Internal referrals  often give your resume an automatic pass to the first real (hiring  manager) interview stage. Even when it doesn’t, at the very least, it increases the likelihood you’ll get feedback if you don’t make the cut. I’ve already explored If you don’t know anyone at the company in question, it’s time to trot out your LinkedIn skills to find people who know the people you  need to know. Get introduced. Offer to buy someone in your targeted  group/department/specialty a coffee and pick their brain about the  company and work. Don’t fish for a job. Reach out for a conversation. Once you’ve met and allowed them to understand who you are and what you are about, THEN  you can express interest and ask if that person would be willing to give  you a referral. You Get What You Give Be prepared to customize your resume. Highlight (or, in some cases, re-write) the resume to accentuate the needs expressed in the job description and de-emphasize elements that are less important. Does that mean more work for each job application? Yes. Should you do it for every single job? OF COURSE NOT. You’d do this for the  high-value opportunities, not the “this came up as I was scrolling  LinkedIn” jobs. But remember that the effort you put into an application  very often reflects the value of the outcome. Not always, but often. For the second part, I am going to emphasize that in every place you can quantify a result, you need to do so. It’s Not What You Said; It’s How You Said It Again, a resume is not just a list of “I did this sh…tuff.” It should convince the reader that you are able to produce results FOR THEM. By  measurably quantifying the effects and impacts of your past work, you  implicitly state your ability to do the same for them. Consider the difference: “Cultivated a healthy work-life balance culture for both in-office and remote employees by creating groups and events for in and out-of-work activities.” …vs… Improved employee satisfaction stats by 5% YoY by creating groups and events for in and out-of-work activities, with an average of 65% attendance over two years. Increased product visibility by integrating a new records management system to become a more competitive offering for new clients …vs… $5k revenue increase MoM for the first three months and +30% adoption rate by integrating a new RMS, making the offering more visible, competitive, and valuable. Obviously, you might not always have numbers for the things you’ve done. This suggests a few things to me: Start making a habit of noting these types of results – not just because they look good on a resume, but because the business you work for now is ALSO interested in these types of results. Challenge managers to provide these types of outcome statistics and question work when no perceivable value can be attained. As you are writing or updating your current resume, note the items where you can offer ranges, where you can stand by terms like “significant increase” or “measurable impact,” and which items simply defy quantification. For those items that have no measurable outcome, consider why you’re including it. Again, “At my old job, I did stuff” is not a compelling  argument to hire you. Sure, you need to show that you have experience  with a specific language or technology. But “I know how to do things” or “I can learn how to do things” can be communicated in other ways  besides taking up valuable inches of resume space as a laundry list of  tasks. Separate and Elevate Consider separating the work result from the work history. Have one section for “Places I Worked” that simply lists dates, company names, and job titles. Then, disassociate the tasks from the job by grouping them based on technology, results, or some other category. Nobody really cares that you  did these things at company X, but those things at company Y. It’s more  interesting to see all the ways you’ve used Java to create results or your various improvements to team productivity. By grouping the work  you’ve done by category, you create a compelling picture of your skills. The (mostly) Un-Necessary Summary You need to trust that the interview(s) will reach out to you and ask for specifics, background, or context. In fact, a well-designed  resume will cause the reader to want to do exactly that. As always, I hope this helps. If you have additional questions, contradictions, or corrections, leave them in the comments. Also published . here

What Exactly Am I Making a Resume For?

When the interview comes to the “Do you have any questions for me?” part, your best use of time is to try to uncover things that would cause you to absolutely say no (or yes) to the job. “What gets you most excited about the company’s future?” is… nice, but no matter what answer they give, it’s not likely to change your mind about whether to accept the job or not. What you really want are questions that speak to the day-to-day experience you’re going to have. You also want questions that are more  difficult for the other person to “storytell” their way out of.  Questions like “What’s different about working here than anywhere else you’ve worked?” are so subjective and so broad that the other person could spin a complete fairy tale. A few weeks back, posted a series of some pretty . Because the internet is a funny place, I’ll include his original post down at the bottom, but I wanted to offer some reflections and additions  of my own here. Arpad Szakal kick-ass examples over on LinkedIn What I LIKE about Arpad’s questions is that they not only cut to the heart of the issues they address, but they also speak to some pretty solid deal-breaker aspects. It’s not even so much WHAT the person answers, but HOW they answer (and how consistent the answers are when asked across  the interview process). That said, the answers Arpad shared are very manager-specific. And I’ll go on record to say I disagree that you’re selecting a manager. In  my last job, I changed managers four times in the span of 2 months (and job and team didn’t change). While that’s an extreme example, it underscores the nature of IT work. my You are NOT, in fact, selecting a manager. You are selecting a company first and foremost and a team second. Even the team can change, but if you have a sense of the landscape beyond your desk, you can at  least gain some awareness of whether the role you’re interviewing for  is in an island of calm on an otherwise stormy sea or a waterlogged rowboat in the middle of an otherwise serene pond; or… at best, the team  you’re joining reflects the same stability, values, culture, and tempo  as the rest of the organization. But even with the manager-specific nature of Arpad’s questions, it’s fairly easy to broaden them to encompass a team, department, or company: Can you share a time when someone gave feedback on something that could be improved or changed in the team? How does this company handle mistakes or failures within a department? I wanted to add a few more questions, which I think have the same flavor but are possibly more helpful for folks pursuing a career in  tech: What’s on your “negative roadmap” – the list of things this role (team, department, company) will never do because it’s outside the scope of our goals? Teams (feel free to substitute “departments”, “companies”) spend a lot of time focused their responsibilities – whether it’s described as a  roadmap, service level agreements, etc. And rightly so. But sometimes, it’s important to be clear about what is NOT being offered. What are  some things that are explicitly excluded from this role (or this team or this department)? How is that list created, negotiated, and agreed  on? How do you recognize and reward people who “do it right the first time,” who pay down technical debt, and generally keep problems from happening rather than waiting for the emergency and then swooping in? It is pretty common to reward people when they save the day. Heroic effort is incredibly noticeable. But everyone understands it’s far  better to work in a way that the problem doesn’t happen in the first  place. But that’s so much harder to recognize, let alone reward. Thinking about the first 3-6 months of this job, what does “success” look like? The framing I love to use for this question is: “Imagine it’s six months from now. You’ve hired me, and we’re having a beer, and you are  so incredibly happy with the work I’ve done that you would be ashamed  NOT to give me a raise. Can you picture that? Great. Now… tell me what  it is that I did to make you feel that way.” How do we track when the goals or priorities change mid-way through a cycle? Typically goals are set at specific times (both for individuals and for teams, departments, etc), and are framed as things that will be  measured at the end of that period. But emergencies, course corrections,  and even the whims of leadership often (sometimes “usually”) intervene.  So, people end up hitting their review period with a list of goals that  are no longer valid and that haven’t been done in any case. How does  the manager (and company) manage that reality? Meanwhile, here are two more questions if you’ll be stepping into a job someone else recently filled: What is something the previous person did as they performed this job that folks loved and appreciated? What is something the previous person did as they performed this job that you’d have preferred they stopped doing? And finally, if you feel like you have a decent rapport with the other person, here are some that MIGHT yield unexpected insights: What is one thing people never ask you about in this role (or this team, department, or company) that you wish they would? What am I not asking that you think I should? That’s my extension of Arpad’s original list. I’d love to hear what you think of them and, even moreso, how they worked for you if you tried them during an interview. Meanwhile, here’s the original post, transcribed below: ************ OK, I’m going to let you in on a little secret. It is NOT easy at all to spot a good (or bad) boss during the hiring process. But worry not. Here are 5 questions to help you spot a good one (or a bad one!) in your next interview in 2024: “Of all the people who worked for you, how many have been promoted and how did you help them get there?”This can reveal a lot about how they develop and support their people. The best managers out there will have specific examples of how they did this. “Can you share a time when an employee gave feedback on something that can be improved or changed?”This can reveal how they accept and implement feedback (or not). The best manager makes people feel: heard understood and respected when accepting feedback. “How do you maintain the balance between achieving results and caring for the well-being of your team?”This will give you an understanding of their approach to managing stress and pressure within the team. “How do you handle mistakes or failures within your team?”This can shed some light on their attitude towards failure and whether they use it as a learning opportunity or a reason to reprimand. The best managers understand that mistakes are inevitable and use them as coaching moments. What kind of leadership development opportunities exist here?”This one is not just for you. The answer to the above can reveal how the company invests in its leaders. RememberYou are NOT choosing a job. You are also choosing a boss. Choose wisely. And with that, dear high flyers, I wish you all a Happy, Healthy & Successful 2024!#aviation #leadership #newyear2024 Also published . here

If The Interviewer Says, "Do You Have Any Questions for Me?” Ask Questions That Matter

As regular readers know, I recently . After all the interviews, the next part of that process was the offer  negotiation phase.  To be incredibly transparent, I hate that part of  the interview process like almost nothing else in my life. It’s gut-churning and mind-numbing and terror-inducing all at the same time. I  always feel like I’m doing it wrong, and at the end of the process, I’m  certain I’ve made horrible mistakes that will haunt me for the rest of  my career. changed companies In the 35+ years I’ve worked in tech, I’ve changed jobs several times, each time interviewing with several companies before making a  career move. After some back-of-the-napkin math, I realized I’ve  received dozens of offers over the course of my career. Anyone who’s worked in tech understands this is pretty typical, and not just in this current period of marketplace unrest, with the “great resignation/reshuffling/whatever”; weekly announcements of layoffs and companies getting acquired, spun off, or shut down like it was a game of  whack-a-mole where the moles were actually Russian nesting dolls. Moving around like that means I’ve negotiated my salary, benefits, days off, and so on a bunch of times. And you’d think that after so much  practice over so many years, it would feel like old hat. No big deal. A  walk in the park. Nothing could be further from the truth. There are, of course, plenty of resources to learn how to be a better negotiator and to take control (not to mention ownership) of one’s  career. I’m a big fan of Chris Voss’ book .” I’m an equally big fan of , who I’ve enjoyed hearing from on | | | | on Corey Quinn’s . “Never Split the Difference Josh Doody three separate appearances Screaming In the Cloud podcast But even with the information I gleaned from those (and other) resources, I’m still uncomfortable with the entire process. Negotiating  the purchase of a car or house is so much easier emotionally, because  objects aren’t tied to yourself worth the way a job offer objectifies  your value as a professional. This makes it more important than ever to take a principle we hold true in our data centers and apply it to our careers: Namely, if something isn’t a core competency for the business, don’t spend huge amounts of time, effort, or budget on building it internally. And it’s an  indisputable fact that – while salary negotiation is important to my  career – it’s utterly irrelevant to my day-to-day job. This is why, when my friend and former colleague Kymberlee Price (aka “KymPossible” on Bluesky, hence the title of this blog) offered to  help with the negotiation phase during my last job search, I jumped at  the chance. If you are currently in the negotiation phase of your own job, stop reading this and . If you are hunting for your next job and know that negotiations are on the horizon, write down her info and after you finish reading this. And if you aren’t looking for a new job  at this moment, I’d remind you that – in tech at least – your transition  to turning on that green “Open to Work” banner in LinkedIn can happen  at any time. So, grab and put it somewhere for safekeeping. contact her contact her her info If you’re thinking, “I’m just not comfortable with being super aggressive to my future employer”, you need to move over and make some room because I’m not either. In fact, almost every one of Kym’s clients says the same thing. And the truth is, nobody is saying you need to be.  In fact, aggressive is the very LAST thing that you need for effective  negotiations. Firm? Absolutely. Confident? 100%. But aggressive? Never. Like any great tech practitioner, helping people negotiate their salary is Kym’s SIDE HUSTLE. By day, she’s a kick-ass product security leader. Kym relies on data and analysis to identify how the offer on the  table stands up to industry standards, your current compensation, the  likely movement of the market in the next few years, and more. Kym’s  process takes the emotion completely out of the conversation. Her view  of “total compensation” goes way beyond what I’m used to considering.  Not only did she factor in the usual elements like stock options, bonuses, etc., but she also included out-of-pocket healthcare costs, 401k matching, PTO, and a projection of how the complete offer will “age” over five years, based on average raises, bonuses, etc. The approach is hard to argue against. It’s not a fierce contest of wills where one side insists they are “worth more,” and the other does  their best to convince them otherwise. It’s a frank and fact-based  discussion of how the company’s offer compares competitively to other  options available and proposes adjustments to close any gaps so you can  happily accept.  A company can still choose to say, “That’s not  something we can do.” However, this is a far cry from the standard pushback  of “We don’t believe we (or anyone else) should do this.” Which, I gotta  tell you, is a breath of fresh air. Now, all of this implies that you’re always going to get a lowball offer – which isn’t the case.  Kym tells me that when clients get a phenomenal offer straight out of  the gate, she provides them with a few key questions to ask the recruiter to  confirm it really is a great offer and ensure there aren’t any surprises  later. Sometimes, the base compensation is great, but you’re losing  $50-100k a year in benefits, retirement matching, etc. Maybe you’re okay  with that tradeoff, but you need to know about it upfront. As a Tech professional, I need to build and maintain my skills as a developer, sysadmin, and engineer. I need to stay up to date on the  latest tools, techniques, and technologies. But I don’t need to spend precious time learning the fine art of salary negotiation, even when I  will probably have to do it several more times before I retire. Not when there are amazing folks like Kymberlee Price around to do it and do it far better than I could ever imagine. Also published . here

Figuring Out Job Offer Negotiations: Lessons Learned from Kym Possible 

My generated some attention and conversation. The comments helped me clarify some of  the more specific lessons I’ve learned recently; or that I knew but  were reinforced by the experience. After taking time to organize them  into a somewhat coherent structure, I’m ready to share. Here’s the first  lessons on the list. post about my 6 month job search As always, if you have opinions, corrections, or experiences you want to share, please do so in the comments below. I get this question (“should I start looking now?”) a lot, both from people fresh out of school or boot camp; folks who are in their first or  second job but aren’t sure whether they should make their next move;  and people who have been working at the same place for a while, but  wonder about the color of the grass beyond the fence of their  organizational borders. I tell everyone the same thing: It’s never a bad time to look around the airplane and check where the exits are located and the parachutes are stored. As far as I can tell, there’s nothing to lose by semi-seriously applying for jobs that look interesting and seeing where things lead. At  worst, you’ll find out a job you’re not a good fit for or a company  where you wouldn’t want to work. At best, you’ll know your value in the  market and have a flattering offer in hand. “No, Leon. The worst is that I apply, someone blabs, and I lose my job.” Look, I’m not an employment lawyer, but if that happens, it seems like you might need one, because that kind of sh… tuff is patently  illegal. Yes, it’s a hassle nobody wants or needs. But it’s also  incredibly uncommon. The risk of taking out production with your next  change control is significantly higher. The secondary benefit of applying often – at least once every 6 months but better if you can swing it once a quarter – is that you keep  your interviewing skills sharp in a low-stakes situation. If you bomb  the interview, you still have your current job and nothing is lost. But  even if you bomb, what you’ve gained is valuable insight into what  happened, and why, and how you might approach that situation different. It’s hard to understate the value this mental preparedness has when you’re in a situation where you NEED (or really really WANT) the job  you’re interviewing for. Being a veteran of 4 interviews a year, you  enter each conversation with a set of stock answers to common questions.  Every question from every interviewer feels less like an surprise quiz,  and more like a conversation. The calmness and confidence this instills  can make all the difference. “That’s a pretty fairy tale, but what happens if my Yes. To be honest, I have started telling the companies where I work that I do this, up-front, just to avoid surprises. I’ll admit, this is a HUGE  function of the privilege I carry and I know it. Please use caution. That said, I tell them for a few reasons: First, I often interview because I mentor folks who are looking for jobs and I want to be able to  talk about the interview process credibly. Second (and this is the more controversial part) if my interviewing makes my employer nervous, it says more about their feelings of how I’m  being compensated than it says about my loyalty to the company. Again, I  know how risky that attitude is, and caution you to carefully consider  following in my footsteps. The upshot of all of this is that if you are wondering if it’s time to interview, it probably is. I’d love to hear what you think in the  comments below. Also appears . here
