    This is one reason why competent recruiting operations continue paying attention to you and building excitement between you accepting the offer and your start date.https://twitter.com/kevinakwok/status/1076533241258168320 …

    I've come to believe everyone systematically underestimates how influenceable people are in the last inning of deciding major life decisions like jobs. The smallest moment magnifies. Managing the last mile so key. And conversely getting lazy for a second so fatal pic.twitter.com/sC9zbt0I3a

        Totally What are examples of what you guys do? Who are others you'd consider very strong? What percentage of tech companies would you consider competent. Feel free to answer any to none of these haha

        You have to be obsessive. Oftentimes you have to sell to people's family too. Understand what drives people, make it make sense in the full picture, not just for the individual.

        +1000!! Reading this as I literally get my stuff packed to move for the new job. It’s emotionally hard to leave x behind; great people ops (should) know this, and (should) keep the excitement to counterbalance the loss of x emotionally.

        On the flip side, there's an important lesson in #retention here for management – don't peeve your top talent. It's not about never saying no, but saying no without the other party leaving peeved.

        75% of mine was because Dal's acceptance came much later than Ontario universities' and up until then I'd been unable to make a choice.

        And from the flip side, the candidate can do the same throughout the interview process. That’s why sharing an expected salary early on can be so detrimental—the company’s perception of the candidate’s value to the firm could change (increase) throughout the interview process.
