Here’s Why You Don’t Bring Your Mom to a Job Interview

on January 15, 2014

Has anyone ever called your mom for a referral? Probably not, and that’s a good thing. Your mom knows way too much about you. And while she’s definitely your advocate, she may reveal some things you don’t want people to know.

At the SFBeta event sponsored by SmartRecruiters, I asked attendees, “If I were to call your mom for a referral, what would she warn me about you?” Here are the embarrassing results.
