Hi, I’m Steve Patrizi, founder of Career Cantina, where I share what I’ve learned as a hiring manager to help people be better job candidates.

Over the past 25 years I’ve hired hundreds of people and interviewed thousands of job candidates at LinkedIn, Microsoft, Pinterest, & The Wall Street Journal, and I’ve seen the good, the bad, and the ugly when it comes to how candidates approach the interview process.

Since a lot of job candidates have never been on the “hiring” side of the table, it’s not always obvious what’s really going on or what hiring managers are really looking for during the process. And while there’s tons of content from career “gurus” and coaches, a lot of those people haven’t hired anyone in a really long time—if ever—and so a lot of their advice is really high level.

That’s why I started Career Cantina. I’m sharing advice as an actual hiring manager, and interviewing other hiring managers who will share their advice and tips for how to be the best possible candidate.

Let’s do this!
