Update on the GM DDD WCW Recruitment

Posted on February 28th, 2010 by Paul McArdle1 Comment

As you may be aware, we’re in the process of recruiting a General Manager for Discerning, Developing and Delivering the Software our Customers Want (Need).

Up until this weekend, we have been receiving proposals from a small number of candidates shortlisted from the large number of applications we received in the first 2 weeks after the position was opened on 24th January.

Given the importance of this position (for us, and for the candidates) this has entailed investing many hours of time in getting to know each other, and to ensure the candidates could gain a clear view of our company (where it is now, and where it is headed).  We want them to come in with their eyes fully opened – both to the opportunities and the challenges!

This week I will be reviewing these proposals to determine which one is the best fit for where our bus is headed.


For those who have applied later than about the 10th February, I have not (yet) spent time to review the information you sent in.

This has simply been because of a lack of time – because of my need to spend such an intensive amount of time with the early shortlist.

I promise that I will review your information and get back to you, regardless of the outcome of the review of proposals noted above.
