Breanne Potter left a comment on my blog and told me that she frowns upon thank you notes. She is so hard core that she akshully rejects candidates who feels the need to write thank-you notes.

(To summarize: ‘Don’t be desperate, yo. You either get the job or you don’t. There’s no need for pleasantries.’)

Holy crap, dudes. She does not mess around.

I wondered, “What else makes you rule out candidates, Breanne?’

She told me. Go there and check it out.

I also wonder — what makes you rule out candidates?

Typealyzer will analyze the content of your blog and tell you what kind of writing you do.  It’s sort of like a Myers-Briggs personality test for your blog.

Turns out my blog is a Do-er (ISTP):

The active and play-ful type. They are especially attuned to people and things around them and often full of energy, talking, joking and engaging in physical out-door activities.

The Doers are happiest with action-filled work which craves their full attention and focus. They might be very impulsive and more keen on starting something new than following it through. They might have a problem with sitting still or remaining inactive for any period of time.

I definitely love starting new projects, but I’m also one to see them through to the finish.  In fact, I have a hard time stopping once I get going on a project I’m passionate.  And if you’re losing track of time, you’re definitely doing work you love.

Breanne Potter will have something to say about this site guaranteed!

It’s that time again! It’s time to share the standout blog posts, websites, and social media tools that I discovered this week and would like to share with you.
