    No shit, during interviews one of my go to questions is why is this elrole empty? New hire or backfill? Did the person put in their notice? If they’re still here… Can I talk to them?

    Almost always got straight answers, and they actually had me meet the person leaving.

      I asked “why is this role empty” when interviewing for my current job.

      The interviewer looked sad and explained that he had died a couple of months prior. Oops.

      Still a good question to ask.
