How do managers know if a person is a good or a bad programmer? gee thanks... if so that'd be my very first meme. In case it's not obvious to anyone, it derives from the 'herding cats' analogy. |

Recruiters intentionally present one good candidate for an available job @Jeff well maybe, but I think that would be unintentional and entirely dependent on the quality of the candidates they had in front of them... if they had 2 candidates that looked equally good it would be mad to deliberately hold back one of them and instead send a couple of weaker candidates in their place. When you're down to a handful of candidates, the final choice is the hiring company's problem/responsibility. |

Need advice: Staying techie or going the MBA way? excellent... I will be an avid follower of your blog. What I hate about not being technical - watching the architects, programmers and testers leave a room you've had them in for the last 3 hours to hash out a problem knowing they will be having a ball in that way we all understand from making something work, while I DON'T. What I hate about being technical, standing back & watching some twat screw things up when I know I can do it better... ker-splat (that was my brain imploding) |

Recruiters intentionally present one good candidate for an available job The second recruiter was most likely mad about missing out on the bigger commission he was hoping for - it's right he should have told you to keep him in the negotiation... probably would have got you more money. If it works for footballers, it might as well work for you. |

Recruiters intentionally present one good candidate for an available job +1 for cultivating the very very few good recruiters out there - their work is brutal, I know I couldn't do it. |

Project Manager that wants to lock in time estimate with a signed contract @bold Sorry. I know it was a loooong post, and it won't always be like that but this was a topic dear to my heart - enough to turn from long time listener to first time caller. I only bolded to mark out where to go for the counter strategy & skip the guff. Plus I used paragraphs the way the English language was designed before the internet even ;-) You can just scan the first line of each one to get a general jist. |
