I once handed an app to a guy and he handed it back and asked me to fill it out for him because he couldn't read or write.
I can vouch for Katy. She's a cutie.![]()

Wow, I've never had that one happen to me. There have been several people bring in people with them to fill out their paperwork, though.
Don't face the person interviewing you.
yeah, yeah, I don't care how nice a woman is, if she doesn't look nice I won't bother flirting with her. Especially on something as important as a job interview. I'm already nervous enough as it is when I go on those things....![]()
I want Katy to interview me.
I would face the out of her.
Then, I would ask for the real thing.
katy, why did you not start this when I need a job?
I thought you already found a job?
needed was the key word.
Well, if you ever decide you want another job, refer to this thread.
Someone once told me they wouldn't hire anyone who released a "meat fart" ! I guess I understand.
What a good day for this thread...
When I say wear slacks and a polo, please don't wear a shirt with the golden arches on the sleeve. Please listen to my explanation when I tell you that " the Pain Away" isn't an appropriate incoming dialtone for a job seeker's cell. Four months is not "good tenure". Never list your mom as a professional reference.
Don't bring your Whopper and fries into the lobby when you're waiting for an interview, even if you are fifteen minutes early. Set your effing Myspace profile to private so I don't have to explain any references to sex, drugs or rock and roll to a prospective employer when I'm helping you hide those in the first place. Every third person doesn't have car trouble causing cancellation of an interview, so don't be surprised when I call bull .
OK, I feel better. Carry on.
Jack, I know you and I can go on forever with this thread.

When responding to job ads, if a specific requirement is listed and you don't have that requirement, don't bother. No, it's not okay to apply for a Physical Therapist job when you're a Massage Therapist. Really, you don't qualify.
I haven't been on an interview in a long time, but the last interview I had was before a panel of 4 decorated police officers including the captain. Lets just say that prior to the interview food was the last thing on my mind. But even before then I never even thought about doing any of the crap that you guys have listed....If it was a job I really wanted I always made it mandatory that I wore a suit. And thats saying alot because I can't even stand wearing those preppy polo shirts to be honest.
Katy how much? I have U.S. dollars...
U.S. dollars no good.
When I saw this thread I thought of a scene to a movie or show...but for the life of me I can't think of it. He gives the tip to his friend that during an interview you have to be the one asking the questions and take control of the interview. In the movie/show it goes horrible, but I think the person still gets the job. I don't think it's The Office, but it might be.
Anyone know what show I'm thinking of? I can't get it for the life of me
I can't think of the one you are talking about, but I do remember the scene in White Castle when Kumar was on the interview with the Doctor and his cellphone went off and he answered it. Then he went on to talk about getting stoned and finding some pussy. All this during the interview...![]()
Do give a web site of your modeling pics, some that show a hint of your large breasts.

It's been a long time since I have been on an in-person interview. As a remote freelancer everything is email and occasionally phone. But the last time I did, the thing that stood out to me was the way others in the waiting area were dressed. Sandals, shorts, shirts not tucked in, sneakers. It was crazy. Do people still dress this casual?
Sounds like a movie I've seen. She got the job.

Unfortunately, yes. I have a funny story about the way people dress on their interviews, actually. I met with an Accountant who came dressed in a pant suit to our interview. After meeting with her and corresponding with my client about her, we decided to have her go meet with them. She wore a pant suit to that interview as well but my client told me they looked down at her shoes and noticed some other material hanging out from one of her pant legs that resembled pajama pants. WTF? Apparently this young lady didn't have time to take off her pajamas before putting on her suit? She didn't get the job.
/werd!
I have to disagree with the job qualifications part, I've been hired for jobs I wasn't totally qualified for, I'd have to imagine for one of two possible reasons:
1. I'm a good bull ter
2. They needed people
And these weren't crappy jobs either.
Just my .02
