Getting into the Mind of the Hiring Manager

- Job searches are so frustrating. But you know what? It's not your fault. The truth is, the hiring process is broken. Most job seekers believe that the hiring process is fair, linear and rational, led by people who are trained to hire, when it's not that way at all. It's unfair, circular, and confusing, led by humans who are, well, biased. You're likely aware of hiring biases that have to do with age, race or gender, but there are many other hidden psychological biases that can impede your progress. Many of which, job seekers don't know about, much less hiring managers. But when you understand what's really going on in the mind of the hirer, you'll be able to develop a proactive, targeted strategy that gives you a distinct advantage.
