You have to be careful how you let people go if you want to attract good talent. There is always a chance of a misfit, and the right thing to do is to part ways as soon either party realizes it, but you want to do this in a way that is not unnecessarily damaging to either party's reputation. Otherwise, good people with a reputation may think twice about working with you.

- kaolti 9y agoExactly, not everyone is interested in playing the pc game. What if they mean exactly what they say: not a good fit. That doesn't mean he is bad at his job.
- psadri 9y agoYou are contradicting yourself. Being an A player is your reputation. No one is going to hire your into a senior level role without you first having a good reputation.
- alexashka 9y agoA players don't worry about getting hired into senior level roles. They don't worry about their reputation either. If you worry about any of that, you're not an A player :)
