So you're fresh out of grad school and you have what you believe is a great new idea; one that will potentially revolutionized the hi-tech industry, or any industry that is traditionally the playground of the young. You've got the expertise and the venture capital, now you need a team of brilliant, diligent, free-thinkers to help you bring your idea to fruition.

A few of your applicants are driving Buicks and sporting reading glasses, but they're smart and seasoned. However, most of their competition was born during the Reagan administration and rode to the interview on skateboards and hybrids. They are more in-tune with your ideal work environment and you don't have to educate them about the latest computer acronym. Would you hire the AARP crowd, or stick to what you’re more comfortable with? Or would you hire a mix and hope they blend?

When a job offer reads that "relocation is not offered" is that refering to paying for my trip to the area, or are they only considering local residents.

I'm fed up with my boring old office job at work. I'm working in a telesales role at a newspaper and have been there for about a year. The people are nice the canteen is amzing but I just don't like it...at all!! I studied drama at university and want to be a stand up comic but somehow I've got stuck in a rubbish 9-5 desk job. I'm lost and I don't know what to I want to do something that fits with who I am (e.g fun outgoing silly and funny) But I have no clue how to start. I don't want to do something pointless, and I don't want to do something that pays really badly. Where should I start looking? Websites, Papers etc....I'd like to work with children maybe or animals or fish...but they're just examples....ANY RECCOMENDATIONS. Please please please don't write silly or pointless messages.

I work helping a blind guy who is attending college. A few times recently he has been late or not come in at all-and I'm often dubious of his excuses, though I haven't said anything yet. Although it is his learning that is affected, I find myself being annoyed by this-when you are all set to do a job helping somebody, its frustrating when they don't turn up.
But I don't want to fall out with someone I have to spend 6 hours a day with. How can I say how I feel about this tactfully?

Hi,

I am interested in becoming a Pharmacist. If there are any Pharmacists out there whom can walk me through a normal day and what you need to know, that would be great!

Also, information on Pharmacy schooling, length/degree options, costs, transferring, etc. would also be a lot of help.

Thank you

If I left previous employment on excellent terms to accept a promotion and higher pay with another co, and now am unhappy with new job, is it ok to ask to be rehired. Previous co was very nice when I left, offered higher pay and also a promotion. But, I decided to go with the new offer. How should I approach my previous employer about applying for rehire?

I've always felt really guilty when I quit a job. But should you? I mean you're doing it for you, right? I'm contemplating quitting my job now and I of course feel guilty about it but my mates tell me that no one cares more about me than me. This job has me stressed and irritable and I can't sleep right so quitting would probably be the best thing for me. What do you all think?

My friend is feeling realy down because she went to an interview with AirTran and was not given a second interview. She said all the flight attendants and admin. where white and only white people got called back into the other room for a second interview. Is AirTran racist? Or is this just a fluke?
