Job Applicants

Interestingly enough I received two job applications tonight.

I am not hiring. In fact, I don’t even own a business. I do not even advertise myself as a business.

I find it kind of interesting though because it says something toward my branding efforts.

What else was interesting is that both applicants had the email subject of “Looking for a position”, were from Toronto, were marketing graduates, were both fluent in English, Cantonese and Mandarin, and neither included any information about HotPepper.ca in their email. Just a resume.
