Successful companies hire people.
My biggest problem in my life is I’m cheap and I didn’t hire a publicist. In every awkward interview, normally actors get these things scripted.
I am an affirmative action hire.
I think it’s fun to fantasize about the idea of NXT and ROH butting heads and seeing which one will do better, especially with WWE looking at ROH guys to hire.
I mean, if people still want to hire my 34-year-old fat butt for campaigns and let me be myself then I’m all for it.
If cheap immigrant labor is made unavailable, employers can hire Americans at a higher wage, or replace low-wage immigrant workers with technology and automation, which will create a smaller number of skilled jobs for Americans.

I offer my expertise and experience for hire in order to help a group of people reach the summit.
I met a lot of hackers, and some of them were very arrogant. They thought I was stupid because I couldn’t follow what they were talking about. But then I met this great guy whom companies hire to find their security holes, and he was very good about explaining so I could understand.
For creative tasks, the best approach is often just to hire great people and get out of their way.
I’ve been on predominantly ‘white’ shows before, and I had also been on predominantly ‘black’ shows. I would complain that when I was on a white show, they would only hire me because there was a black character or they needed a black voice. But then I would be mad if they went and hired a white dude in my position.
When you can’t afford to have the best, you hire the young who are going to be the best.
Why hire these geniuses if they’re forced to stick with the script? You want to empower your actors as collaborators.

My goal is to get a real film industry started in Washington. An actual one, not where features come to town and shoot second unit for a few days. I would love to get something started here. Hire local crews. People could work year-round and raise their families here.
I think in industries riddled with bias, you tend to hire women only if their previous work is very masculine, which is hilarious given that this is not how male directors are chosen.
If you think it’s expensive to hire a professional to do the job, wait until you hire an amateur.

The trend in entrepreneurship is up, but an entrepreneur’s ability to hire is down.
I was hired as a sous-chef at a restaurant on the Upper East Side. The chef liked to drink – some mornings we would find him sleeping. Two weeks after its opening, I became the chef. I was 20 years old, and way over my head. I had to hire the cooks and do the menus.
I tell people, if you really want me to look that good, why don’t you cough up about $2 million more and hire Alec or Billy? If you want me to do it, this is what you get.
What you see with me is what you get. I don’t have to conduct a poll to figure out what I’m going to tell somebody. I don’t have to hire some consultant to come up with some cute catch phrase. I just call it like I see it.
When I was in casting, we would bring somebody in, have them read their lines, maybe give them a few pointers, and hire them, and then once they go to the set and you have a director who’s directing them, that performance may not be anywhere near what you had in the audition, either good or bad.
Sometimes fans land up at my home. Some time ago an 80-year-old lady from Chandigarh came home and wrote off her property to me. I had to hire legal help to get rid of the unwanted gift.
Journalists always want publishers or editors to leave. They’re creative troublemakers – that’s why you hire them.

When you hire directors, you’re most concerned about whether or not someone from the outside will get the jokes.
I’m not even an engineer. I don’t have a college degree; I hire guys with college degrees.
My job is to hire the best and brightest employees and empower them to do their best work. As a manager, I am not a mind reader nor an expert at every job function. Therefore, it is incumbent on all hires to feel empowered to tell me what resources they need to do their job.
I was a writer for hire. I wrote to pay the bills.
The Cantor reputation is one we get from clients and those we hire.
Never hire someone who knows less than you do about what he’s hired to do.
Foreman told Ray to plead guilty and he’d then give his brother $500, if Ray didn’t cause any problems at the guilty plea hearing, and he could take that $500 and hire a lawyer to set aside the plea. Foreman actually put that in writing.
Don’t hire anyone – no matter what they offer – who promises you they’ll sell ‘X’ copies of your book. Every book is different. The best any marketing company or PR firm can do for your book is make potential readers aware of it.
You hire well and just make sure you have enough runway for everyone to grow in the company’s success. It creates loyalty and opportunity, really.
We’re all in the service business. If you hire me to do a job I expect everybody else to be where I am. A little bit of crazy is good. It keeps things – balanced.
Nobody’s ever going to hire me to choreograph fights.
I’m not trying to be anyone. You know why other executives always hire phonies? Because they’re phonies. They hire phonies because they like phonies. They’re comfortable with them.

My third hire when I came to Spotify was Tiffany Kumar, who came on as our global head of songwriter relations. The whole idea was to put our heads together and figure out how to build and contribute within the songwriting community.

Washington has got to, across the board, lower taxes for small businesses so that our mom and pops can reinvest and hire people, so that our businesses can thrive.
But my view is that you need a system at the border. You need some fencing but you need technology. You need boots on the ground. And then you need to have interior enforcement of our nation’s immigration laws inside the country. And that means dealing with the employers who still consistently hire illegal labor.
I’m interested in the opportunity that people can self-create using social media and the online dialogue. Before social media, you needed to have a lot of personal funds to break through to hire the right people and build a presence to start a line. It gives the opportunity and platform for people to be discovered.
We will hire someone with less experience, less education, and less expertise than someone who has more of those things and has a rotten attitude. Because we can train people. We can teach people how to lead. We can teach people how to provide customer service. But we can’t change their DNA.
What’s amazing is that so many leaders who value teamwork will tolerate people who aren’t humble. They reluctantly hire self-centred people and then justify it because those people have desired skills.
My vision is to hire qualified employees that may have not yet had the opportunity to create a better life for themselves, or did have one but might have came down on hard times and need a hand.
Any number of scoundrels, having money enough to start with, can establish themselves as a ‘government’; because, with money, they can hire soldiers, and with soldiers extort more money; and also compel general obedience to their will.
