Interesting interview with Spiceworks recruiter and IT manager on their
company and hiring process. They do have some good advice. It is over 2
hours long, so stretch and get some coffee before you start.

Lucas I’d also like to know that ratio. My last employer kept going
through non-college people for design engineers. They kept going through
them because they always failed. I was very lucky to get hired because
they needed a real degreed engineer for a project certification but I also
was laid off after the project was finished.
I think unless something from a resume jumps out at the reader in the first
5-10 seconds, it gets trashed. Unless, it is an employee referral, like
the lady said. In other words, they hire friends and family. My
experience has been that companies flat out refused to let me network with
them because they did not know me and they did not want to know me.
Companies will work around the deficient worker because the worker is a
friend or relative. This was commonplace at the places where I worked.
End of story.

I respect these two interviewers but do they seem to be a little cocky and
on a powertrip?

The interview is great but you should improve the sound quality, there is
so much noise. Keep the good work.

Good information, thanks for giving us a peek behind the curtain. It’s
pretty much exactly like I thought it would be 😉 Also I think that
recruiter is wasting her talents, the way she masterfully dodged your
questions and judo’d BS filler into the response without missing a beat.
MUAH! Perfection!

would be great if you purchased some decent mic’s and reduced the amount of
room noise you constantly get.

Thanks for this interview Eli! The insights are very helpful.
On a side note: Jen is one foxy lady ;)

Question: How do you go about advertising as a tech consultant?

This isn’t a question, but along with these long daily blobs, it would be
nice to have shorter 15-20 minute videos for those people that don’t have
the time to learn up on these things. Another thing to add could be a sort
of table of contents that gives each topic a video time in the ‘about’
section. Great stuff though.
