EP 2154 Office hours are open! Today, I answer 6 questions from people:   How do recruiters filter low-quality job seekers who apply for a job in hundreds of companies?   If you apply to a big company but decide to reject the job, do you get put into a negative candidate list so you can't apply to other jobs there?   Is it a good or bad idea to mention, "20 years of experience" on a resume? What's a better way to say it?   What should I do when I send lots of job applications and I receive many calls for interviews at one time?   When applying to jobs, should I apply to multiple software positions at the same company at the same location, or would I essentially be spamming HR?   What do interviewers look for as warning signs and/or automatic dismissals when meeting with potential employees?

EP 2149 Office Hours are open!   Today's questions are:   When a recruiter or interviewer asks you why you want to leave your job, what is the best answer? I usually say 'I've been in the same industry for a while and I'd like a change' etc. but is that a good answer?   What should I put in the subject line of an email while applying for a job?  Renegotiation is possible. But shall I wait to see the agreement based on the first offer (I proposed) then renegotiate?   Can a recruiter ask a job candidate if he or she owns a car?   A hiring manager contacted me soon after I sent job application and wanted to do an interview at that day via phone call. He said the interview would last only for 15-30 mins. What does it mean?
