A candidate I interviewed last month sent a thank-you note even after being rejected. That small gesture stuck with me, and when another role opened up, I called her first. She starts Monday. Kindness really does loop back around in recruiting.
Early in my career I thought working harder was the answer. It wasn't. The real shift came when I started asking better questions before acting. Clarity beats effort almost every time.
