Hey Mark, At Office Nomads, we're of the mindset that applications will more likely turn off folks who you want there than keep away folks you don't. We have a free trial day for anyone who wants to check us out, and a week-long trial period for any new resident member (those with 24/7 access to the space). Spending time to get to know a new person is a really great way to determine if they'll be a good fit (99% of the time), but more importantly the best way for the new member to determine whether your space is a good fit for them.
At the start of any coworking space, people are always quick to ask "what do you do with mean/cranky/disrespectful people?" I can now reassuringly tell folks that those types really don't stick around the space too long. People who don't get along well with others usually don't thrive in coworking spaces. Just my/our opinion from Office Nomads! Best of luck, Susan __ Office Nomads officenomads.com 206-484-5859 On Wed, Aug 17, 2011 at 2:14 PM, Mark in Iowa City <[email protected]>wrote: > Hey all, do any of you have an application for a perspective > individual to provide some information to learn if they would be a > good fit for your coworking community? > > Our goal is to make sure we are not letting anyone in that will be > detrimental to the space. > > Curious if others have a pre-screening tool they use and might share. > > Thanks > Mark > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Coworking" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/coworking?hl=en. > > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Coworking" group.
