A recent post over at Steve''s HR Technology about jobs that require degrees got me thinking. believe that how well someone will do at a job has more to do with who they are than what sort of degree or experience they have. There are exceptions: If you''re going to perform surgery on my brain or represent me in a court of law, I want to see a degree or two after your name and I don''t want to be your first client after graduation. But for a lot of the jobs out there, an understanding of the basics is enough to be going on with. Marketing. Tokyo. knew it must be mine. plotted his downfall.

Dear Evil HR Lady, I lost my job over a year ago. It paid very well and since then I have jumped around to about 4 different jobs trying to find a good fit and reasonable pay. Most of the jobs were beneath my skill level but I needed to earn more than unemployment so I took them. finally landed an interview with a job that is comparable to my lost job in qualifications and pay, as well as skill level. Should I disclose all my past employers on the new application? Will any be found on a background check if they were less then a few months? Can you offer me any advice as to how to handle this?

Dear Evil HR Lady, I have a manager, who for 6 quarters, did not deliver on his sales targets. He gets away with it by shifting blame on team members and wrong customer account selection. After missing his first 3 quarters, he blamed it on team and almost got an entirely new team on board. Now with new team he on board, he is still not delivering on his sales targets. Now he blames it on wrong account selection. How can one expose this behavior to senior execs in the business, as this individual has wrecked havoc in other good sales people by managing them out of the company.
