Said candidate arrives for an I terrier ?..........................
I always schedule my terrier...............
I wish it would be worthwhile writing book on this. I’ve interviewed a few hundred people during my career and have seen and heard some really screwed up things.
My counterpart recently interviewed a woman who volunteered the reason she left her last job ..... because people kept staring at her cleavage. This is a professional position too. Who says this stuff?
Young people today who actually have it all together will do very well indeed. Not much real competition out there.
It was my experience when I was a business owner that most of these people didn’t REALLY want a job, they were just satisfying a requirement to ‘try’ to find work to keep getting unemployment benefits. If you actually gave them the job you would never see them again.
what’s an I terrier and a hair filled short? Don’t give him a job.
Just had this conversation with the general manager for my employers warehouse.
He just reviewed 75 applications and did a bunch of interviews. He said it was clear they were all just punching the ticket and had no interest in working.
Don’t expect it to get better, I know tons of employers and I am one also. the vast majority are lazy, have no drive, goals or initiative to do anything except go home and play with thier friends, smoke weed and play video games.
What is your starting wage?
In regards to the comment about people applying just to maintain their unemployment benefits:
I manage a jet charter operation. I had an opening for a Cessna Citation Bravo pilot. It clearly said in the advertisement the necessary pilot credentials, experience, FAA requirements, medical certificates, passport, etc. that were necessary for the job.
One day, via the web site Indeed (a job search website), I received two resumes. The resumes were from two ladies. In reading their resumes, their job history showed multiple jobs at fast food restaurants and housekeeping at various hotels. No job lasted more than six months. Nothing about education was listed in the resume. Based on their unique names, I suspected they were Amish.
Did I trash the resumes? Absolutely not! I brought in our office manager and turned on the speaker to the telephone. I called each lady. These calls took place at mid-day. In both cases, I got them out of bed. I inquired about their pilot experience, total time, time in jets, charter experience, etc.
After a few questions, it occurred to them they had applied for jobs as jet pilots. “I ain’t flyin’ no airplane. I be scared of them things.”
The interview went no further.
One of the executives at Indeed flies with us regularly. I showed him both resumes and teased him about the people he ‘sent us’ to fly him and his family.
He responded that he had no control over who applied for what job.
Where do I sign up for the racial sensitivity training that I so desperately need?
In other words, the entitled little snots expect you to accommodate their schedules. I hope you make them wait.
(What’s a “hair filled short?”)
Dressed for success?
No, dressed for contempt
