Query:
Person. TV. Camera. Trump recently bragged that he was aces on a
cognitive test. When I first heard the story, I thought, "Okay,
but those tests are famously inaccurate." Then a friend told me
that he had to complete a similar cognitive test as part of the
interview process for getting a job at a big tech firm. Some
outlets are calling pre-employment cognitive testing a new
trend. I would like to talk to psychologists and job seekers
about what they think.
This pitch is for a longer, reported piece, so right now, I am
interested in hearing quick opinions from psychologists and HR
folks about this practice. I would also like to hear from job
seekers who have had some experience with this. Tell me what it
was like for you. If it seems like you are a good fit for the
feature, I will reach out with further questions.
Thanks and have a great day!

A controversial op-ed questioning the usefulness of 401k plans

someone from the C-Suite) became "the millionaire next door"
because of saving in their 401k.
2) Why did your examples in question 1 reach the millionaire
level? How did their 401k plan make it easier them achieve this
goal (be specific).
3) Explain whether or not this same strategy can be repeated by
similar employees just beginning their careers today.
4) Given today's circumstances, who might a worker employee a
better strategy (either with or without a 401k)?
5) How should 401k plan sponsors update their older 401k plan
documents to better account for today's circumstances?
6) State your name, title, firm, and city/state location.

We noticed that many remote marketers had no idea how to fill
out their profiles so clients would hire them immediately.
How to hire top marketers?
When you hire designers, you can ask them for a portfolio. When
you hire software engineers, you can ask them to do a test.
What should you ask marketers? How can they build their
portfolio to show their experience? What questions do you ask?
Would you prefer a video résumé?
Any tips for marketers would be great!
Requirements:
It would be great to get some insight into these questions from
other marketers, HR, etc. Thank you so much!

questions answered: 1) How can a company tell when a vendor is
marketing a true AI application instead of a dressed up legacy
application in order to jump on the AI bandwagon and 2) what
questions should a company ask itself to determine whether it
really needs AI in the first place. Perhaps it would be better
off with older technology.

To Glacial Relationships.
I'm looking to hear from people whose relationships have slowed
way down, or have been put on pause, due to quarantine. (I'll
only share your first name/age.)
A glacial relationship means you were making plans for the
future, but quarantine has put a stop to them temporarily,
because you aren't able to see each other as often.
Questions: 1. What was your relationship like prior to
quarantine? And what were your hopes for 2020 as a couple? 2.
In what ways has quarantine slowed your relationship so that it
feels "glacial"? (Has it prevented you from moving in together,
going on your first vacation, meeting family?) What kind of
impact has that had?
Thanks!

inevitably move to defund police? 2. Will cuts to police benefit
or harm communities? 3. If local and state governments are
forced to make budget cuts, does it make sense to cut police? 4.
