☆ Don't make these 5 virtual interview mistakes—they can 'sabotage your candidacy' and cost you a job
  + stars: | 2022-11-03 | by ( Morgan Smith | ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +4 min
Between August and September, TopResume asked 330 U.S. hiring managers, recruiters and HR professionals to rank the worst offenses a candidate can commit during a virtual interview. How do you make proper eye contact with someone on a screen? The best place to conduct a virtual interview is a room that's clean, quiet and has good acoustics, Jeff Hyman, CEO of Recruit Rockstars, says. As for decorations, "if you would think twice about having something behind you in a cubicle at an office, then you probably shouldn't have it up during a job interview," Augustine says. Surprisingly, technical difficulties did not make the list of virtual interview deal-breakers.

These 15 power players are just a handful of the people designing workplaces to balance productivity, interaction, and employee well-being through indoor-air-quality monitoring systems, building amenities, holographic meeting spaces, and more. AftershipCities like Austin, Texas; Nashville, Tennessee; and Raleigh, North Carolina, began offering business-relocation incentives during the pandemic to boost their workforces and help increase occupancy in office buildings. Room's office suite includes a phone booth, a meeting room, an open meeting room, and a focus room. Room also makes a soundproof meeting room that fits two people, a more open meeting booth, and a focus room designed for quiet concentration. "The future of office work needs to be guided by a new, genuine form of flexibility in which the work, not the workers themselves, become even more malleable," Petersen writes.
☆ Gavin Newsom says Joe Biden is 'hard-wired for a different world' of 'compromise' that's gone

California Gov. Gavin Newsom says taking on MAGA Republicans doesn't come naturally to Joe Biden. "He's hardwired for a different world, but that world is gone," he said on MSNBC. Asked whether it's a "fool's errand" to try and bridge the gap between the left and right, Newsom said it is at the moment. After campaigning on finding unity, Biden has more recently blasted MAGA Republicans as a threat to American democracy.
☆ American Airlines passengers report 'unnerving' groans and moaning noises from PA system that sound 'somewhere between an orgasm and vomiting'
  + stars: | 2022-09-25 | by ( Bethany Biron | ) www.businessinsider.com   time to read: +4 min
Passengers on at least three American Airlines flights reported bizarre moaning and groaning noises from in-flight intercom systems. In a viral video, one passenger described the sound as "somewhere between an orgasm and vomiting." According to an American Airlines spokesperson, the PA systems "are hardwired and there is no external access." However, it appears this wasn't the only American Airlines flight that has been subject to strange noises. The American Airlines spokesperson told Insider the company is reviewing the additional claims, and also noted that there is no WiFi component to the PA systems, which would make an external hack difficult.
☆ These startups are beating Elon Musk in the race to let you mind meld with your computer

That's when I started reporting on them, and like any good nerd I was compelled by what scientists could learn with these "brain computer interfaces." The race for implantable brain chips has been a long, deliberate marathon. Graham Felstead, who has severe paralysis, was the first person to have a BCI inserted via the blood vessels. Brain chips will enable them to perform simple actions on their own and reduce the need for round-the-clock care. "When we started in 2015 and I was pitching venture capitalists on brain computer interfaces, no one knew what a brain computer interface was," says Matt Angle, the CEO of Paradromics.

Colin Smith worked in a senior accounting role at a Big 4 firm for years. Getting my start in public accounting seemed like a perfect fit at the time. For an industry that's notorious for long and grueling hours, public accounting seemed like a place where I could learn a ton and exercise those muscles. In 2015, I landed a senior manager job at a Big 4 firm. When I started looking around for other opportunities, I wasn't satisfied with the options I found outside of public accounting.
☆ How psilocybin, the psychedelic in mushrooms, may rewire the brain to ease depression, anxiety and more
  + stars: | 2022-06-11 | by ( Sandee Lamotte | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +14 min
CNN —Shrooms, Alice, tweezes, mushies, hongos, pizza toppings, magic mushrooms — everyday lingo for psychedelic mushrooms seems to grow with each generation. Yet leading mycologist Paul Stamets believes it’s time for fans of psilocybin mushrooms to leave such childish slang behind. “The SSRI did not increase brain connectivity, and it actually did not improve well-being as much as psilocybin,” Nutt said. A typical microdose is 0.1 to 0.3 grams of dried psilocybin mushrooms, as compared with the 25-milligram pill of psilocybin that creates the full-blown psychedelic experience. “Our hope is that we can use this information to ultimately make drugs that mimic the benefits of psychedelic drugs without the psychedelic experience,” Roth said.
