		<description><![CDATA[Rules for job hunting and interviewing have become so institutionalized and complex that employers and managers make themselves look downright silly. My guess is that this is costing their companies dearly. It&#8217;s bad enough when job hunters over-think how they are going about it &#8212; but it&#8217;s sometimes scary when employers reveal how they judge people they [...]]]></description>
