This is exacerbated by me being afraid I’ll forget to come back to the topic, and feeling like I have to get to address it immediately or it will be lost. When you think I am riffing 🎸 /monologuing 🗣️ on a tangential topic that isn’t on the agenda, it's always ok to interrupt and tell me to my face, or send me a direct message.

 > If you notice one of these flaws, and especially if you deliver feedback about it and don't feel heard, or you feel hurt, or you feel like I didn't "get it", please send me a link to this section of the handbook, or just interrupt me and give me [feedback in the moment](https://fleetdm.com/handbook/company/communications#performance-feedback).  I will be extremely grateful, and value your bravery in pursuit of what's in the best interest of the company.  (And if I don't, keep trying.  I'll come crawling back.  Promise.)

-## Interviewing
+## Communicating with applicants 
 
-> TODO: Rewrite this section for the hiring manager as our audience.
+At Fleet, we use [LinkedIn](https://www.linkedin.com/company/fleetdm) to communicate with future team members. Allowing potential candidates to apply via LinkedIn direct message lets community members quickly introduce themselves and apply while providing the maximum amount of async data to the hiring manager. Community members will often inquire about positions that aren't currently being hired for. We [track all applicants](https://fleetdm.com/handbook/digital-experience#track-a-fleet-applicant) in the ["🧑‍🚀 Candidates (HRIS)" spreadsheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Ujw1Et4IT6vG6i59dy31uB9UdV6EM6DDrWvKNOWA0bY/edit?gid=0#gid=0) (Confidential Google doc) and respond within one business day. 
 
-We're glad you're interested in joining the team! 
-Here are some of the things you can anticipate throughout this process:
-  - We will reply by email within one business day from the time when the application arrives.
-  - You may receive a rejection email (Bummer, consider applying again in the future).
-  - You may receive an invitation to "book with us."
-If you've been invited to "book with us," you'll have a Zoom meeting with the hiring team to discuss the next steps.
