When I interview for a job I interview the person interviewing me and try to get a feel for whether we will work well together. Good boss, bad boss On one interview I went on, when I met the two men who would be interviewing me, I met the first one and thought, "OK, so he seems like a nice man and I could work with him."

A manager has to have confidence that you know how to do your job. I had been for a short time years ago and thought it was just something I was not very good at, but years later, I became a manager again. I also worked by myself for many years and wondered if I would know how to share. Do you know what you are doing?
