I've been very open in my interviews, and it's netted significantly regrettable results. So this time I'm going for people who can get behind and contribute to the common cause as soon after hire as possible. I don't have any aspirations of hiring for life, though I certainly do endeavor to have that kind of an environment for a person who wants that sort of thing. I just need to quit hiring backstabbing chaff with their own agendas.
