What you said was not the best thing and tehre aer some good answers to what would have been better to say. But I wouldn't worry about losing a job where they told you they don't care to hire quality people. | |

One way to handle a shocking remark like this might be to simply ask a probing question rather than suggest a root cause. "Really? Do you agree with this?" "Why do you think that is?" "Is it just a few people or is it widespread?" If you've already said something you regret, a recovery strategy might be just to re-engage - "I'm really curious about the perception some team members have that others are unqualified - tell me more." | |
