    Nice work! :D

    I'd never heard of Unicru, but it sounds like a stupid system. All those cookie cutter interview questions are one of the reasons I never got a real job (and hopefully never will). Interesting reading indeed.

    How long until someone makes an online 'practice' Unicru form that scores users against the "correct" answers ...

    Thanks for all your good thoughts. I actually had a lot of fun writing the post and am excited to see what this does for me in the future. I am hoping to see more regular traffic on this blog. Right now, however, I am focusing a large part of my time on another blog and hope that I can start building a network of really good blogs.

    I didn't know the WSJ had such bad grammar.

    The [melbel.com] is what I added to reference my blog to tell readers that they were talking about my site. I didn't want to reword a quote so instead opted for the grammatical error knowing that (most) viewers would know they were reference brackets.

    Let me guess, to write a post about Unicru? Don't waste your time, it's not really searched that often to really even make an article worthwhile. Although I often rank first in Google search for the term, it brings me little traffic and little money.

    That's not what I was talking about. When you want to add something to a quote, you're suppose to add it in brackets. You did the right thing, it's proper English.
