- blueline 6y agothe linked blog post for that gave me some serious raised eyebrows > Within the first week, we had over 100 applicants for our content manager position. We easily passed on 90% of applications that: >Opened with something like: “Dear Hiring Manager” or “Dear Sir/Madam” am i taking crazy pills? why would you pass on someone just for that?

- aaresto 6y agoDon't pay attention to the negativity of users like this. Canny is great, not only because of the product, but also because you share your leanings with other people. Be proud. You have done something a lot of people want. Ignore those who only are able to see things from their perspective.
