I try to make a connection with the people I meet and then I sell myself.

Paula and Fan ~ You both hit the nail on the head! That is exactly my point.

What – I was not trying to sound arrogant. Rather, I was sharing experience as the basis for discussion.

My boss and I were just talking about how most highly successful people we meet are very confident people. I think that’s where “what” gets the idea that the author is boastful. The author of this article is absolutely correct. With all the applicants employers must sift through, something special must stand out with an interviewee for the employer to want to hire them. Anything that builds a rapport with the potential employer will help!

David, your article went completely over the above reader’s head!
“WHOOSH!!!!!!!!!!”

Personally, I thought that your article has many fine points in it and I agree with your statements 100%.

I think that reader may be just a tad envious.

Did I just spend the last 2 minutes reading a post about how great you are?

Come on! Stop being so arrogant, jeez.
