X-Therma Inc.’s Post

Sad news. The first 55 rejections have been sent for the role of "Head of operations". These were all on CV-scanning only. We're rejecting more tomorrow, and we're sorry that it took so long to assess - this is a more difficult task than we already anticipated! But let's share one insight, so you can better prepare for other applications. One thing we selected on, is the duration of the last job. When less than 1.5 years, we rejected. There were some exceptions, like somebody who stayed longer on the previous job than the current one. There were multiple reasons to filter on this. An obvious reason is that we wanted to hire somebody who would stay with us much longer than 2 years. Another one is that the really difficult problems arise after 1.5 to 2 years. So if somebody had 5 jobs of less than 2 years, and also the last one did not work, then we were not convinced that this person had solved those complex problems. We found that there was quite a group who hopped every 1-2 years for the first 4 jobs, and then stuck with one job for much longer - these all got through. Of course, we could very much be totally wrong, but that's the risk of CV-based selection. We could also have chosen to talk 30-60 minutes to all 135 applicants, which we obviously could not do. So what should you do to get through this specific filter at other companies for the same role? 1) make sure that you don't split up experience under one company too much, as this was difficult to read and maybe mistakes were made here. 2) read on the hard problems of management, and learn to love these problems. 3) stick with one company for 4 to 5 years. :) 4) don't hop too much. Or you could focus on "interim manager" and "company fixer", where such shorter times make total sense.
