If you're interviewing someone online and you *think* you hear something that is a red flag then it is in your interests to check you've heard that correctly.

Also conducting an interview with a bad internet connection in the first place is unfair to your interviewee

@FaizaYousuf I don't because trying to do that makes it impossible to listen to them. I *hope* they know I am fidgeting with my hand in order to listen and understand better.

@StooCrock Good luck! 'tis a worthy venture

[Syed Ali @simTesting]

From the silence on this tweet I'm thinking there might not be any other companies doing this?

[Syed Ali @simTesting]

I currently give induction sessions to ALL new joiners at @kinandcarta_eu about Testing at K+C, and yup that means even if you joined the Accounts team you get the Testing induction.

I'm very curious as to whether any other companies do this?

[Syed Ali @simTesting]

@MaikNog @AgileTFellow @diconium Sounds great! Look forward to hearing how this journey goes

The first time I've been able to play the dice game in person in a long time!

Been a while since you taught me the game in a Brighton pub @michaelbolton 💜
