Good Old-Fashioned Manners

Please share your TIY (they're . . . into you) anecdote about what a candidate said or did that was the key to getting hired. If you're not logged in as a registered user, the post will be anonymous, if that is what you prefer. Postings from hiring managers, recruiters, as well as the candidates themselves are welcome. Please devote each posting to a single anecdote (if you've got more than one to share, post more than once.) To keep format consistent, anecdotes should be a single paragraph and they should all end with "TIY". Feel free to express yourself. Please check you post for spelling mistakes before submitting it. And thank you for sharing your story!
