Post client interview behaviour - email follow up/linkedin request?

Is there any part of contracting that you can understand and make a decision on by yourself? Anyone can follow process and say everything is great just because the basic steps are in place. The real test of a person or system/process for that matter is when things go a bit off the rails. That is the test to see how good someone or something is. Do they understand enough to deal with the ambiguities of the situation. You clearly do not. Does this not worry you?

NLUK. Its a discussion forum - you clearly do not understand that. People discuss things on a discussion forum. Someone posts something and then someone gives their opinion.

If you aren't interested in said topic then no-one forces you to read or even comment if you don't want to.

If everyone thought like you and didn't post because they wanted to make their own mind up and appear clever then there'd be no forum.

So why do you mind NLUK giving his opinion?

Probably because it's a petty and rather unpleasant personal attack, not a response to the OP. Not saying PC doesn't annoy the bejesus out of the CUK populace most of the time, but even so.

thanks aoxo. But to be honest, on a scale of 1 - 1000 rating opinions I care about.

Friends, family, 'real' colleagues score near the top.

My cat does quite well too.

But random strangers on the internet who I've never met don't even break double figures.

But as PC says, it's a discussion forum, so we should welcome a wide range of contributions - both in content and style. If people don't want to read a particular poster's contribution, they can always use the Ignore function.

I interviewed a guy earlier this year and he made a bit of a mess of the technical interview. After he got home he sent the hiring manager a follow up email detailing the correct answers to the questions that he got wrong or didn't know in the interview that he researched on Google. I have yet to work out what the point of that was!

For someone who cares so little about the opinions of random strangers on the internet who you've never met, you seem to spend an awful lot of time asking for their opinions.

Agreed but general consensus is that on a discussion forum one should stick to the subject of the thread.

If NLUK had an opinion relating to the thread then fair enough. He didnt - it was his opinion of how I do things again.

Agree with you about ignore though. I should use it more.

And is that what you're doing?

To show he can look things up like the rest of us do. Everyone I have ever worked with - including me - does it.
