Interviews

Careful or you'll start Southend_Lady off, diverting another thread with certain suggestions! :winking:

Im not really a fan actually. Its ok if your both into it but I tend to think unless you have a lot of peircings elsewhere then to have just your toungue a male or female can look gay/lesbian-ish! Although apparently it is in a lady's interest for a man to have his tongue peirced......:stunned:
 
Some of the ****ing dross we used to see was untrue.
I was part of the shortest interview ever held a couple of months ago.

I was hiring for a new position over here, which was clearly advertised (as with 95% of jobs here) that English is essential. Walks in, introduces herself to my Director & I and then sits down. My Director said let's switch to English, and her face just dropped. It was obvious to me even without knowing Dutch that she didn't have a clue! My Director was furious and just sent her packing! Quite how she got through the agency was another thing!! But from entering the office to leaving it cannot have been longer than 45 seconds. :thump:
 
I'll have a nice french crop please BA and something for the weekend :D

I would just like to point out i've had my tongue pierced for about 10 years, way before piercings became "cool" and were hijacked by all the trendy little pricks!

Thankyou!

Oh yeah and French crops are gay! :finger:
 
I've just sat in on three interviews for a role for a young 'un and a few things have bugged me. Take a note 17/18/19yr olds.....

1) Stupid hair. Bit shaved here, bit spiked here, this bit bleached. Fcuk me, who cares, it's going to be under a hard hat if you get the job.
2) Tongue Peircings: Makes you look like a gay hairdresser. This is an engineering job!
3) Chewing gum: Take it OUT before you start the interview.
4) SIT UP STRAIGHT AND DON'T SLOUCH.
5) INVEST IN A TIE.
6) INVESTIGATE THE COMPANY YOU WANT TO WORK FOR.


Thankyou for your time.

Your getting old arnt you Mk ;) . A tie proves nothing btw , if a person is organised and smart , and inventive they can look presentable without . Plus it would show creative and "outside the box" thinking , synergisting free forming... agggh sorry nearly devolved into managment speak there.

That is one way to go.....but i think as you say MK you need to research your prospective employer and that way you will know if a tie is called for or not at interview stage, after all the point is to sell yourself.

I still however think you can not beat a smart suit and tie
