Athletic Quotes
During the search ..I had the opportunity to interview some outstanding candidates that reinforced my belief that Penn is a special university with a great basketball legacy. I heard from scores of university presidents, athletic directors and basketball coaches, and the unanimous opinion is that Glen is a person of integrity, sincerity and uncommon coaching acumen. It?s a pleasure to welcome him to the Penn athletics family.

Answering Quotes
Think about what you want the other person to know so you don't spend the entire interview simply answering questions. By only answering questions, you miss opportunities to deliver key points if the other person on the other end of the phone doesn't ask you a question to trigger one of these points.

Candidates Quotes
Perhaps at no time in the recent past has the need for quality city leadership been more critical to Mesa than it is now. We want Mesa residents to know as much as possible about the people who are running for a chance to provide that leadership, and The Republic's forum gives citizens an excellent chance to eyeball the candidates and give them the kind of job interview necessary for an educated vote.

Advise Quotes
Details are still being worked out, but the point is that we're turning this disappointing situation into a positive new program that will benefit Rutgers as a whole. We hope that by setting up a committee of members of the University community who would interview potential nominees for the Rutgers Board of Governors and advise the governor on which candidates are most friendly to Rutgers, we can encourage greater communication between the state and Rutgers.

Bring Quotes
They're getting around it, ... They know who they want and they bring in a minority or two and interview them. They're circumventing the policy. The commissioner's office has to look at this and tighten the guidelines. They have to get more involved in the interview process, maybe have a representative from the commissioner's office at the interviews.
-
Bank Quotes
They regard this as a crime not much different from a bank robbery. Their philosophy's very simple: If you interview enough people, eventually you'll find somebody who knows something. They do not think this is a perfect crime. At some point, they believe, the people who perpetrated this will be bragging either to people they know or in postings on the Web. If you start leaving your handle around, you're leaving a trail the FBI can follow.

Bit Quotes
It's going to be a great opportunity for (Matt) to see the facilities, to meet all the people involved. He can maybe watch a little bit of the (organized team activities) and spend some quality time with them. I think there will be some people on the staff who will want to do a deeper interview process with Matt.
-
Call Quotes
It's peculiar how this worked out. I was doing an interview while I still worked at WAOL (radio station) and I wrote down his (Rogers) number for the Turkey hot line. I kept the number and called the (Briggs and Stratton) hot line from home with questions on how to get rid of moles. It was in late May when I called. A few weeks later my wife (Janet) received a call from someone that said we won a free lawn mower. I really didn't know what to think.

Best Quotes
The best for me is word of mouth, because all who know my work know how good I can be at what I do. It also makes the interview easier, because they've heard about me from someone else and know it's not just me boasting. I still dread looking. It's troublesome to be turned down for any reason, good or bad.
-
Collective Quotes
It's interesting - a lot of what you accomplish in your lifetime either as an individual or as a company is determined by other people. I mean, you can do interview after interview and defend a point of view, but more often than not, the collective kind of opinion will be the one viewed historically and taken as gospel.

Applied Quotes
It's time for this board to look hard and long at minority hiring. We don't have any minorities in technology. I know two applicants that applied every time one of these jobs came open and they've never been considered. The way I look at it, the good old boy system is coming back. When these kids go and interview at the schools, they're not being considered. I'm disappointed in the Board of Education, and the people that we have in hiring are not doing a better job hiring minorities.
-
Chances Quotes
Not too long ago we weren't getting those opportunities to interview and it's real good and exciting to me. The Rooney Rule and I think the success that Tony has had and Marvin had this year has done nothing but enhance the chances of minorities getting jobs. And that's the way it should be.
-
Attitude Quotes
Not knowing enough about the company or position, displaying a bad attitude or inquiring about compensation prematurely can all leave a negative impression with hiring managers. For job seekers, the interview represents a time to shine. Thorough preparation -- including researching the employer, rehearsing responses to common questions and understanding appropriate topics to discuss -- is the key to avoiding potential pitfalls.

Banging Quotes
I'm getting a lot of mail from shooting coaches around the country, ... They are banging the door down to come in and work with our guys and talk to our guys, so maybe I'm going to have to interview some people. No, I don't know. It's been our main guys missing. One game, everybody missed them. They're working on it. It's a long season and you hope that eventually we'll catch ourselves and improve.

Fact Quotes
in the studio that went unnoticed for the full hour... Like Matt Cooper, Russert had testified to the grand jury on the Plame affair, yet at no point during the interview did the salient fact sally forth to the viewer. The pretense was uninvolved journalist interviewing involved participant: the reality was one pea in the pod interviewing a fellow pea.
-
Accessible Quotes
I quickly learned that asking if an interview space was wheelchair accessible was a bad idea; it gave a potential employer an immediate bad impression. It was either a black mark against my name, or a straight up discussion of why I wouldn't be able to work there because they had no wheelchair access.
