Why is it important to know how to interpret non-verbal Communication for recruiting?
I have been recently attracted to all social behavior studies, call it in person or online, I did not study a psychology related major but when you have to interact with people pretty often you tend to get interested in these subjects. As a recruiter knowing how to see what people are “not saying” can help you in making a much more efficient decision, this doesn’t mean - that you will know when people are lying - but that you will know when to find yellow flags and make more inquiries about it.
Just like when they say about people talking to you, and rolling their eyes to the right means they are making things up and when they roll them to the left they are remembering something, or if they are looking away from you while talking they are not being truthful. I don’t honestly paid attention to it, mainly because I can never tell my right from my left!, but the important thing is, everyone is different and lately there has been a great deal of studies mentioning that eye contact is not a sign of people telling lies.

How to Create a RESTful application using MVC Rest library
By Fernando G.
Overview
First off, we need to have a quick overview of what REST means to the development community, and we can start by what does REST stands for? It stands for Representational State Transfer. Right, it did not help a lot, right?
In the SOA era, we have Service Oriented Systems interacting between them exposing Services, some applications act as consumers and some as producers. At the end, a Service Oriented Architecture allows an organization to create a well thought and organized set of libraries being used uniformly among all of the participants with no redundancy of business rules and specially having a single set of Services. Well, not always the case. It results extremely painful when the Services are done in different technologies; Interoperability between the different implementations is the major issue among Service consumers and producers. Another problem is that development teams do not take in considerations to other areas of the company. This ends up with duplicate Services because they do not provide what the potential consumers need, it is too painful to reuse.
Well, REST style architecture is one alternative to SOA. REST is all about identifying Resources and not Services. These Resources are Stateless, Cacheable and in consequence are stable, scalable, with high performance and simple.
Asp.Net MVC
Microsoft saw a huge potential to MVC pattern for web development. They already tried with a library called Microsoft User Interface Process (UIP) implementation back in 2003, but it was not very popular among developers so it lost track and its last update was version 2 in 2004.
