The moment you press play, the sound of piercing violin washes over you. Suddenly, you’re pulled into one mesmeric alternate reality after the other.

You don’t want to go through the trouble of adding a new member to your team, only to find they don’t actually have the knowledge base to do their new job successfully.

You spent hours poring over your manager’s sourcing tips from your last 1:1, polled your friends to see which one of four recruiting emails they’d actually reply to, and even put holidays like National Cupcake Day (that’s today, by the way) on your calendar so you could have something to talk about in your LinkedIn messages.
