I’ve interviewed many terrific people in person via FaceTime and Skype. The competition is good. Tomorrow I have several more interviews and I expect to make a decision on the positions very soon. There’s so much thought that goes into selecting the right people. How they complement our existing staff. What their strengths are and more. For the right person who is really strong in one area and not as strong in another – I’m willing to adjust the original responsibilities to get her or him on board.
