You Asked, We Answered - Listener Grab Bag #1

What is Wrong with Hiring

For this episode, we "randomly" select five questions from Listeners Like You (thanks!) and attempt to give quick (well, as quick as Laura ever gets) answers to each of them.

• What's up with unpaid take-home assignments as part of the interview process?
• How many rounds of interviews and assignments is actually reasonable?
• Should I apply to a job if I don't meet all the qualifications?
• What the heck is going on right now with huge companies paying peanuts for contract positions? Is the market REALLY that flooded?
• How do conversion salaries typically compare to hourly contract rates?
