HP's Shame Reminds Us Why Talent Joins Start-ups
We have heard from a number of people who are not surprised to learn that HP spied on its board members, as well as tech journalists. Big company execs often get to the top by being more sinister than others. We believe this is one of the top reasons that talent flows to start-ups were people feel they are out of reach from the kinds of freaks who control HP.

Seth Godin Says Job Interviews Are For Fossils
Seth says: "I’ve been to thousands of job interviews (thankfully as an interviewer mostly) and I have come to the conclusion that the entire effort is a waste of time." Seth has us cheering by the end of his rant. Most companies invest heavily in a process that makes no sense. Seth's suggestion:
"If a person is really great, hire them. For a weekend. Pay them to spend another 20 hours pushing their way through something. Get them involved with the people they’ll actually be working with and find out how it goes. Not just the outcomes, but the process. Does their behavior and insight change the game for the better? If they want to be in sales, go on a sales call with them. Not a trial run, but a real one. If they want to be a rabbi, have them give a sermon or visit a hospital."

$150K Salery For CFO @ AdultFriendfinder
FriendFinder is not the company that you want to take home and introduce to your mom, but it does mint money and can't stop hiring people. Still, $150K plus bonus for a CFO in Palo Alto at a scuzzy company seems awfully low-ball.
