A quick Sunday post with a couple twists.
First, the next BioBeers is happening at ImQuest on Friday October 28th. And it’s a costume party, so dress like something other than a nerd scientists. Come on. You can do it.
I have two sponsors thus far: Life Tech 
and The Scale People
I still need more sponsors, so if you’re intested let me know.
I was also contacted by someone looking to fill various positions in Frederick:

Were you able to hire a Quality Assurance Manager with 10 yrs of experience. Which other places u looked for such people ? Would you mind sharing your hiring process.

Mike,
I don’t know if that position was ever filled. It was not my company, I am self-employed (at least at the moment).
You raise a good issue with your question about my hiring practices. I should have a blog post about that some day, having been on both sides of the fence more often than I would like to be.
Mike said
Jim,
Hope you are doing good today.
Thanks for a quick reply. I would really appreciate a blog post on hiring. What I feel is sometimes fresh and young employs seems to be more productive then experienced ones. And other times it’s a different story. Please share in your post how would you evaluate the experience and passion to work and which one is more important as per you.
