This was my job seeking BLOG, but I missed Blogging so much I decided to resurrect it, and keep it going. Once again I have made myself available to the market

  • Dennis Smith
    Dennis writes a blog for the talent aquisition portion of T-Mobile. Yes he is a company flack, but he is a good kind of company flack. (And no, I am not trying to suck up to him for a fee account, job, or even the latest phone, although I would accept all 3). If you want to learn more about T-Mobile from the company side of talent aquisition, go to

    My brother works for the competition
    Friday, August 11, 2006
    I had an interesting phone interview yesterday that I may have blown. I started asking questions about the company and their business model. I wanted to make sure I understood the market and who they competed against.

    After a few questions the interviewer (and hiring manager) stated I was fairly knowledgable about the market and industry, where did you find this out, it is not in your background.

    I admitted that my brother was an officer in a larger competing firm, and we had discussed his firm from time to time. (Oh and I was a customer of his firm, as well as a critic when they did things poorly!) The other side of the conversation was akwardly silent for a few moments and I heard the scratching of her pen wildly taking a note.

    Question to all: Is there a problem if your brother is a competitor? Is it an advantage?

    A little history. my brother and I worked oposite each other during our days at FedEx, he was finance, I was pricing and marketing and we were poised to be on opposite sides of the fence.
