Boom. Hired.
If any of the candidates I've interviewed and hired had this sort of independent and outside-the-box thinking, I'd have doubled their salaries when I hired them.
- nine_k 9y agoHave you actually made an offer to that person? Do you have the power to double salaries of people in your org?
- PakG1 9y agoThe implication seems to be that gp has never interviewed and hired people who "had this sort of independent and outside-the-box thinking".
- nine_k 9y agoIf the implication is true, that would be a data point. If the implication is false, it would be an exciting data point! HN being what it is, here is quite a non-zero chance to meet a person with real hiring power who really could have made an offer to the person in question.
- StavrosK 9y agoThe GP's sentence was in the conditional perfect (would have), which means he never met someone like that (otherwise he would have said "did").
- sharemywin 9y agoBut, did you use a recruiter for hiring? Seems to me like an org that uses a recruiter isn't looking for "outside the box" employees. Obviously they aren't sourcing candidates with outside the box processes.
