I hired a candidate with a long gap in their resume.

I hired a candidate with a long gap in their resume. He took the time to take care of a sick family member.

I will not question people's reasons.

I hired a candidate with his most recent job title that did not exactly match with the open position.

I will not question people's ability.

I hired a candidate that was much older than the hiring manager. He is an amazing role model and demonstrated good teamwork.

I will not question people's age.

I hired a candidate that was junior for the open position. He learned via online courses only.

I will not question people's attitudes.

Companies, hiring managers, and recruiters - let's all hire for attitude and take a few extra minutes to really look at candidates that apply for your open jobs.

Everyone deserves the same opportunity! Agree?
