|summary=It's well over a decade since I was involved in hiring staff for an employer but over the last seven years I've been active in bringing reviewers to Bookbag. Certain reactions stand out from both experiences. The first is that skills rarely matter: if they're important for the job I can usually teach or polish them. In fact ''well, this is how we did it at...'' can be a disadvantage not least because the temptation to throttle someone can become quite overwhelming on a bad day. Paper qualifications are not really that important either: for the most part the bare minimum will suffice and I've often found that the more highly-qualified applicants can find it quite difficult to adapt themselves to the job I'm offering. At the other end of the scale I've taken people on and after a while thought that if I had half a dozen people of this calibre I could send the rest home. What marks these people out is their attitude. Nowadays it's called mindset.
