Why Leaders Shouldn't Be Afraid to Push Past Surface-Level Interview Questions
by Bob La Loggia
If you've been in a leadership position for more than a couple of years, you've likely interviewed dozens of job candidates.
You know all the textbook tactics, and you've seen every character imaginable - from the guy wearing an Armani suit and too much cologne to the recent college graduate nervously shaking in her boots...Perhaps, like me, you've fallen for the act in the past. Remember when you were excited about the candidate who knocked the interview out of the park, only to find out that she was a dud a month later?
So to guard yourself against this mistake, you try to be shrewder than the interviewee. You ask her sly behavioral questions, have her come in for multiple interviews, and make her take a series of tests. But unfortunately, no amount of testing will reveal the real person, especially in the artificial environment of an interview. You can't really know whether the candidate will be a self-starting, knowledge-hungry superstar or a clock-watching D-list player until you give her the job.
So what should you do? Click HERE to learn more.

by Merrill J. Reynolds, Jr.
While robust credit risk management always occupies an important place, the need intensifies during periods of expansion.

A Look at FHA Mortgage Insurance Premiums Through the Decades
Where does MIP sit today?
by Brena Swanson
Up until
this year
, the
Federal Housing Administration
has not reduced annual mortgage insurance premiums since January 2015. But before that, there was long history in how the MIP has seesawed up and down.
The 2015 reduction came in a series of increases and reductions that have taken effect since 2010. And before the increase in 2010, there was a long standstill in mortgage insurance premiums, which the Mortgage Bankers Association puts into context in its latest chart of the week.

Gen Z: The Dawning of a New Disruption 
by Linda Bennett
Just as brands were beginning to really perfect how to interact and engage with Millennials, a new generation with different trials and tools is coming up on Gen Y's heels to challenge everything we think we know. Defining Gen Y as 20-34 and Gen Z as 16-19, we are taking a deep dive into the 'what's next' for brands.
In our research and approach featured in the
Journal of Brand Strategy, we discuss the importance of our audience first methodology. "In order to really understand audiences, our approach hinges upon the concept that 'we must be or become them.' That means that our approach helps us see the world through our audience's lens... Long gone are the days of brands quickly generating messages and throwing them out to see what sticks." Now, just as brands were perfecting their interactions and engagement with the Millennial audience, a new generation with a whole new set of trials and tools is set to bring Disruption 2.0.
Change is Coming, Ready or Not
