Talking about people...

Mike Harris of Garlik joins Be My Interviewer

The latest (the eighth I believe) person to be added to the Be My Interviewer line up. And possibly the most exciting yet.

I think this one is most exciting for anyone who is looking for a role in the banking, finance or IT sector.

His present role is working as Executive Chairman of online identity experts Garlik who develop software and services to help control and protect your personal information and identity online. Just a slight responsibility there then!

Aside from that, as the founder of Egg Finance and First Direct, Mike is one of the most influential people of the last 20 years, working in that sector.

One of his most interesting present titles is as Chair of Group Innovation at RBS. I love those job titles!

So I for one, will be interested in what he has to say. It will hopefully add another dimension to a wonderful tool. Happy virtual interviewing!

PS On a separate note, it was interesting to see the amount of flak the newspapers gave Prince William for landing his helicopter in his girlfriends garden, and for using it on a jolly on the Isle of Wight. It's not a common problem I grant you. Most of the ladies I have been out with do not have room in their garden for a Prince in a chopper.

However, when does convenience become abuse of power? What is the difference between that and a company car? Obviously cost is one, but security for the Royals must cost so much anyway it probably saved money. Do you think he had sign off for this before hand?
