As a career recruiter, I’ve definitely seen some wild reasons for declining candidates for roles. I’ve had feedback that candidates didn’t smile enough, were “too much”, asked too many questions, or didn’t ask enough questions. Being back on the job market and on the receiving end of it has been eye-opening, but this one takes the cake…

One of the most common hiring mistakes in small businesses is recruiting someone to “help out” without being clear about what success actually looks like.

Because no matter your age, stage, or bank balance, being made redundant f*cking blows.
