Job Interviews

Let’s just say there are a few ladeens abroad in Hyderabad with the feet up on the desk, Arijit Singh on the headphones and they haven’t done an honest day’s work since before Diwali 2019… They need some guidance.

Did you buy a lock a sheep?

Better lads than you have tried and failed miserably. Maybe you need to travel over there and show them pictures of the calf in the boot to get their attention

How did the interviews go @Copper_pipe @fenwaypark

I was a bit surprised to be someone else interviewing me but it was the same questions so I said the same as I did on Monday. No curveballs.

Went for a tour of the site after with the lad I thought I was interviewing with. Went well. Small talk etc.

Hopefully hear back next week

On my 2nd interview back in 2007 (1st job) the head of function I was joining described where Id be sitting.

I walked out the door to see the other candidate and couldnt help but smile.

You’ve got it mate. Cash the cheque

I went for a 2nd interview once where the head man stuck his head in the door, shouted at the HR woman “is this the guy that worked for xxxx ? I told you that’s who wanted to get it” then looked at me, asked a really mad IT question which I answered positively, and he just looked at her and walked out.

You have that gig surely. Fairplay.

Never in doubt lad

Back in early 2007 when things were going bananas I went for an interview that turned into 3 for a competitor, I wasn’t overly interested in moving just testing the water so to speak, anyway I get a call from the recruiter shortly afterwards saying they were making me an offer, grand says I she then told me what it was and immediately I said can you repeat that, it was €27k more than what i was on :hushed:! In hindsight I’ve always felt no wonder we crashed and burned shortly afterwards.

A few years ago, myself and a good friend and colleague were the only two applicants for a promotion. It meant alot to both of us, but we played it fair and helped each other in preparation, worked through practice interviews and discussed what the best direction to take the department once either of us got the post. We also agreed to fully back the other once the cards had fallen with the appointment. We both did fairly well in the interview and I was privileged to be offered the position. Pat was content enough with the outcome, his only regret was that fucking fire alarm that went off in the middle of his interview. The half hour interruption made a right cunt of it for him.
