Interview tip: always, always come prepared with thoughtful questions to ask your interviewers. These questions are often a key factor in me recommending for or against a hire - they tell me a lot about someone's preparedness for the interview and genuine interest in the role.

What's the story you're telling yourself about why you can't separate from work? When can you say I'm NOT available? Such good advice from Dr. Daniel Shore. #CTISummit

We're kicking off Day 2 of the #CTISummit with a keynote by Dr. Daniel Shore on mental health and burnout - an issue we all need to pay attention to. He's kicking off with an example from his own life around summer camp.
