That's my thoughts as well. I expect each contact to be part of the application/interview process. You would be amazed at the 'resumes' I get for each opening at work, makes for a lot of laughs. I suggested to my better half to walk each person out to their car and take a glance on how they maintain the cleanliness of the interior, she didn't get the point.I have never regretted moving from management to technical, I have enough problems without having to babysit or be a marriage counselor. Went from managing 300 directs to "lead" of 8 and never looked back.
That is a great idea, walking them out to their car just to see if they are driving a vehicle full of garbage. Man, you are thinking!
