Iced coffee during an interview?

What’s your take?

642 applicants and still no hire. You don't need more resumes. You need 3 people who can actually do the job. Hiring in claims? Send me a DM 🤘

that's the whole point

Sometimes the grass isn’t greener. But it’s nice to know that for sure.

Awkward silence in an interview isn't a problem. Filling it usually is.

Job seekers, when you finish your answer, stop. The interviewer is taking notes or thinking about what's next. You didn't do anything wrong. Keep talking and you start walking back a good answer.

Hiring managers, ask the question and then wait. The first answer is usually the rehearsed one. The real one tends to show up after the pause, and you only hear it if you give it room.

Some of the best conversations I've had with candidates and clients happened right after a few seconds of nothing.

Which side of the table struggles with this more?

Job seekers, it takes minimal time and is completely free to optimize your LinkedIn profile. Even if you're not actively searching, an updated profile opens doors to unexpected opportunities and valuable conversations.

Is anyone out there actually doing a robot interview?

100% of people with 15+ years of experience who answered our survey want fully remote jobs. Experience matters, but so does flexibility. Many won't even consider a job unless it's remote.

Pay came in fourth.

I surveyed 64 working claims adjusters about why they'd leave their job. Bad management won. Lack of growth second. Burnout third. Pay came in behind all of it.

Everybody says people quit their boss.
