Mic Drop Moments:

🎤 Adam at (05:25) - The last thing I hate is someone asks me to pick my brain. When someone asks me for more time than I’m willing to give.

🎤 Adam at (06:40) - When someone says to me how can I provide value, you’re asking too much. Now, I gotta think about how someone maybe I just met, how they’re gonna provide value to me.

🎤 Adam at (08:13) - If you won’t do any of that upfront work, I’m not gonna give you any of my time. If I have to spend that time, giving you all of that upfront, that’s a waste for me and that’s a waste for you.

🎤 Foster at (11:36) - We say in recruiting good people refer good people and you will find that to be true.

🎤 Adam at (12:32) - What I’m saying is enhance your resume to what your job description is looking for.
