interviewing
This has been a week of interviews. Each day at work has included at least one interview for engineering candidates (and I did my first phone screen today). Then I spent a long evening interviewing architects for some work we're doing at my synagogue. As worship chair I get to sit on the renovations committee, and tonight we had five firms in to tell us why they should get the job and what great ideas they have.
One thing that was refreshing about the latter, and that usually doesn't come up in the former, is that the questions "is choosing X ethical?" and "will it appear ethical?" got serious consideration. After all, hiring someone is about more than getting a job done for the lowest price. (I won't talk publicly about the details, but my questions were answered positively to ny satisfaction, just in case anyone was wondering.)
