Godin identifies 7 questions that underlie every good job interview. Then he points out one question (not asked during the interview) that leads to a bad job, one where politics will be more important than creativity or productivity. I strongly recommend this short post for its practical wisdom.
Seth Godin is like the poet Billy Collins. His writing often sounds simple, especially on a first reading. When you feel that way, read it again. It’s deep. Start diving.
