Sean and I have approx. 12 people who applied for 2 spots.  There are some quality folks among the 12 so if any of you are light on good applicants, let us know.

Can we put all of their apps in our board dropbox? we can delete once they get access to it, but I think it would be good to read everyones to see who works best where. Does that make sense? Obviously, take your first choice based on their choices, but for the others, it might be good to see.

Is anyone doing interviews with their applicants? I'm thinking a 10 min chat with each of my applicants will be more successful than reading their resumes.

Planning on 30min call interview with top candidates (3 or 4 max).

 

I'll send you my top ones to see if I have conflict with other VPs. btw, we should set up a google doc to see our tops. let me know if this is a good idea to set up one.

 

Have a good one!

Can you please upload your apps to the dropbox asap actually? We're meeting with EA right now and they are telling us who their directors might be to see if there's overlap.

Did we receive any First Year FEMBA Director applications? I'm guessing not?

I will hold the kickoff this Saturday from 5.30 - 6pm and invite applications this week.

Are you in the HTBA Board 2013-2014 folder? I started a subfolder in there called "First Year Directors."

ok - if I go to dropbox.com I see it.  For some reason the dropbox installed on my computer thinks it is up to date.

Hey guys,

 

I just created a google doc with my top candidates. I need to do one more interview/chat with one of them and I'll decide tomorrow afternoon. Please fill out your options to avoid conflicts.

Thanks Noelia! I was hoping we could all share resumes/applications. There will certainly not be overlap among us, because they emailed their first choice priority, so in many cases, their second choice directors haven't gotten a chance to read theirs yet!  For instance, if you pick Rana, and Katie Jones is awesomer than all of our candidates, and we're her second or third choice, we could read her resumes and give her the job. It's better if we're picking from a pool of people who want to work for HTBA, not just the people who gave us their first choice. 

YOU get your first choice, but then we can see who else is great who you don't want. Make sense? If you haven't dropped resumes/applications into the folder, it would be super helpful if you could. (Everyone) 

Thanks!

Hi all - first off, thanks to Kate for sorting out hot to  shuffle 1st year director applicants- and to Noelia for starting the google do . Please follow the instructions Kate laid out for selecting/placing directors. 

ADDITIONALLY one quick note- we don't want any excited htbaers to slip through the cracks so... if you have a really strong candidate/applicant and you have tried but not been able  able to find a team for them, and you really want to find a directorship for them on the board because they would be an asset to HTBA, email me by Thursday morning and let me know. I'll try to work out a way to have them participate. We don't want the board to swell to an unmanageable size, but we do want great htbaers to continue to participate! 

Thanks again everyone!

Ashley

Hi guru-

Glad you brought that up. The FEMBA-specific director positions are done separately to make sure we get good directors to meet the FEMBA needs. There are 4 Femba director positions, and I know at least 1 of them is filled already by Joey. Ill email you offline to set up a time to meet next week and discuss what needs have been voiced and how to fill those 3 remaining positions accordingly. Please do keep track of any Femba  who expresses interest in the meantime! 

Copying the whole board in case anyone is asked questions- please refer them to Guru and I!

Thanks.

I just added all of my application and resumes to the folder.  I also included an excel sheet illustrating their top choices.

I think a lot of these guys are great!  My top choices are
  1. Michael Robinson
  2. Neil Kapur
  3. Adam Hammonds
  4. Kit Swain
  5. Max Mauro

I'd like to bring them all into the HTBA. :) Check out their apps.

FYI - Sean and I have identified 5 of our top candidates and are interviewing them for 2 positions we have allocated.  If the three we don't select are strong we will refer them to you guys.

Thanks. I too, have found a strong candidate which I have already interviewed. However, if you can send more candidates my way, that would be nice.
