I am a corporate executive with over 23 years of experience in the technology industry. I have directly or indirectly been responsible for hiring and managing over 100 employees throughout my career.

I am also a husband and a father of two wonderful children, and we call Denver home.

I have personally witnessed the same mistakes being made OVER and OVER again in interviews - regardless of whether it is an entry level position or a senior management position. I wish I could stop these interviews mid-stream and let the candidate know what they are doing wrong - however, HR will not allow me to do that.

So I have taken to the written word to share my collective experience over 2 decades to help YOU avoid these mistakes and get that job you've always wanted.

The difference between my books and others you will find on interviewing: I'm an actual hiring manager, and I make the decision to hire someone. Too many books are written by other participants in the process - recruiters, human resource individuals, resume experts. While they may all provide good guidance, these people do NOT make the hiring decision, and can't know what is influencing the decision in real time. This is the value I bring to the table.

I've worked for both Fortune 500 companies as well as startups. I've hired call center workers and Directors. My career has included time spent at giants such as Microsoft and Motorola. I've also been at startups and experienced the anxiety of wondering if we would make payroll each week.

I can't promise to answer every request, but will certainly include common questions in upcoming blog posts and possibly my next edition of this interview guide.
