"Obviously in Cleveland, you're sitting there mad: 'We've got to find a way, we've got to find a way,' And then when I get here I'm like, 'Wow, we just won.' Obviously I didn't play, but we just won. So, yeah, it feels amazing. I'm just going to try to do my best to help them keep this upward trend up."

I've seen companies with job postings for Drupal developers that require applicants to have expertise with PHP, but no experience with the platform. Drupal is based on PHP, and any developer working with it must know that programming language. However, there's so much more to Drupal than PHP, and the platform and community have numerous standards and practices that aren't involved in knowing PHP. As a result, many companies hire competent PHP developers who, despite their best intentions, didn't use Drupal effectively from the outset.

Nair found the interview process at both companies to be "fairly similar," he said, with strong emphasis on problem-solving, coding skills, and system design. "Each company evaluated candidates for both technical expertise and cultural fit," Nair said, through four to five technical interviews and then a cultural-fit assessment. However, he found Google's technical interview process to be the hardest out of the Big Tech companies he's interviewed at.

Prolonged skills gaps impair productivity. With rapid rates of change in the workplace, the needed skillsets have changed by approximately 25% since 2015 and are set to change by 50% in 2027. Economists caution that more efficient matching of worker skills to job requirements would help to increase productivity and reduce unemployment by a significant margin. Training software is used to fill these gaps by proactively creating and training competencies, thereby avoiding the time, errors, and turnover that result when competency gaps are not addressed.

Where do you start? There are so many moments in a customer's lifecycle that seem to demand a touchpoint.

Below are five email lifecycle programs you need and should be in your starter list - followed by one you should say a fond farewell to.

I can't figure out how to connect with my co-workers, which is ironic since I am a behavioral health provider. I'm located with doctors who refer patients to me for counseling. I love the work! The doctors like and respect my work! Clients say I'm helpful! When I do interact with doctors and other staff, they are friendly and I can always reach them via email or Teams. There are several people on staff who I think could become great work friends.

First, von Ahn said new hires should not come in with "massive egos" or be duplicitous in their dealings with colleagues. "Don't be a jerk," von Ahn wrote. "Duolingo has an allergic reaction to toxic behavior, and our culture quickly identifies and rejects it," he added.

AI Agents are Entering Production Faster Than You Think AI agents are already helping teams triage tickets, summarize logs, provision environments, run basic tests, write code snippets, and answer developer questions. But here's the rub: them are being deployed without formal ownership . A developer experiments with an LLM wrapper, gets useful results, and suddenly it's a critical part of the toolchain. No review. No plan. No infrastructure.

Companies that adopt immersive learning don't just improve training outcomes-they unlock a competitive advantage. This guide explores how XR, AR, VR, and AI enhance learning, engagement, and skill building.

Getting started with WordPress is challenging, particularly for first-time users who often find the next steps after log-in unclear, risking abandonment.
