The resumes are comparable. One applicant is arrogant/pushy/conceited while the other is modest and low-key. Which do you hire and why?

  • That would completely depend on the position that the applicant is applying for. If I own a car dealership, I'd hire an arrogant, pushy, conceited person. If I was hiring a nurse to take care of my mother, I'd want a modest, low-key person for the job.

    Good Morning Not Flo! ;)  It's nice to meet you :) :)   We seem to go to similar questions and have similar ideas on a lot of them.  It's cool to find people with thoughts you can relate to. 
    I look forward to seeing you soon!  ~ Merlin ~

  • Nice to meet you too Merlin. I'm relatively new to this site and I'm enjoying it.........after wading through all of the political hate questions.
