What Recruiters Really Look for in Remote IT Candidates
What Recruiters Really Look for in Remote IT Candidates Remote IT roles are more competitive than ever. With companies hiring globally, recruiters are no longer limited to local talent — which means candidates must stand out in new ways. While technical skills still matter, they are no longer the only deciding factor. In reality, recruiters evaluate remote IT candidates through a much broader lens.

The Interview That Tested More Than Skills
The interview was scheduled for ten in the morning, but I arrived at the building an hour early. I didn’t want to risk being late, not today. This opportunity meant more than just a job. It felt like a doorway to a future I had been quietly working toward for years. As I sat in the lobby, watching people pass by with confident strides, I realized how small the moment looked from the outside—and how enormous it felt on the inside.

Today’s Good Lesson
During the era of Caliph Harun al-Rashid, there lived a spiritually absorbed and unconventional saint known as Bahlol Majzoob. He was a man who appeared eccentric on the outside, but his words often carried deep wisdom. Harun al-Rashid enjoyed Bahlol’s humorous remarks and witty conversations, and at times, in his state of spiritual ecstasy, Bahlol would speak profound truths in the simplest and most unexpected ways.

"Why the U.S. is Obsessed with Greenland – The Global Power Game"
We’re about to make a move in Greenland—whether the world approves or not. This icebound island has suddenly captured global attention, and the United States is intensely focused on it, not just for minerals, oil, or national security, but for its potential to reshape global power in ways that could change the balance of nations for decades. Greenland, the world’s largest island located near the North Pole, with 80% of its surface covered in thick, ancient ice, surpasses the land area of Saudi Arabia, Mexico, and Indonesia combined, yet only about 57,000 people inhabit this vast, frozen land, mostly along the relatively ice-free coastlines where survival is feasible. Temperatures here are extreme, ranging from -30°C in common conditions to as low as -50°C in the northern regions, with summers fleeting and barely reaching 10°C during the day, making this one of the harshest habitable regions on Earth. Despite these brutal environmental conditions, Greenland has become the center of a new Cold War, drawing attention from superpowers due to its strategic location, untapped resources, and geopolitical significance.

Communication. AI-Generated.
Introduction What is Communication? Communication is social process that is essential to life and fundamental to survival (Stacks & Hockings, 1999). It permeates every level of society and influences how we think, act, and engage personally and professionally. It is derived from the Latin word, communicare, which means to impart or share (Merriam-Webster, 2017). One of the most important aspects of effective communication is the use of a common language to create a shared understanding of messages between the sender and receiver. This process can take many forms: face-to-face; through mediated communication, such as written letters and books; or via electronic platforms, such as computers. Over the past 50 years, the media landscape and, consequently, the ability to communicate to mass audiences have greatly evolved. From radio and television to the invention of the internet and mobile technology, a range of platforms are now central to how and with whom we communicate. Communication studies have proven applicable in a range of fields, including business, law, film, education, computer science, advertising, and health. In recent years, strategic communication and promotion have gained prominence in the field of public health. Today, both approaches draw on theories to understand human behavior and facilitate disease prevention (Rimal & Lapinski, 2009). This makes sense given that communication is essential for the exchange of information, coordination of social actions, and the encouragement of behavior, including the dissemination of messages to influence health and wellbeing. Rimal and Lapinski (2009) refer to intervention efforts to change behaviors as “communicative acts” that often include both a function of information exchange and rituals of a social community. It is, therefore, important to understand the beliefs and value systems of a community when designing health communication or behavior change interventions, as different audiences may interpret messages in different ways. Human communication is indeed complex. Its long history and varied processes have been studied across multiple fields and practices for many years, this is a testament to the significance of communication to human existence. From these investigations, De Fleur and Ball-Rokeach (1982) present five major perspectives through which human communication can be viewed: • Human communication is a semantic process. It is dependent upon symbols and rules for their use that have been selected by a given language community. • Human communication is a neurobiological process. Meanings for particular symbols are recorded in the memory functions of individuals. Thus, the central nervous system plays a key role in the storage and recovery of internal meaning experiences. • Human communication is a psychological process. The meaning of words or other symbols to a given individual are acquired through learning. These meanings play a role in perceiving the world and responding to it. • Human communication is a cultural process. Language is a set of cultural conventions. It is a set of postures, gestures, and symbols, and their arrangements have shared or agreed-upon interpretations. • Human communication is a social process. It is the principal means by which human beings are able to interact in meaningful ways. Roles, norms, and social sanctions are understood through a system of shared values.
