Top 10 Things NOT to do during an interview
I've been starting to conduct interviews at my company, including some women. I've come with a list for the ladies of things that will definitely earn you a bad rating:- Chew gum
- Paint nails
- Argue with me (unless you're absolutely sure I'm wrong...and can prove it...that's bonus points!)
- Cry (I'm not that bad)
- Give birth (being preggers is fine)
- Try to bribe me (you can't afford me)
- Try to seduce me (umm...well it's OK to try...still won't get you hired)
- Bad gas attack
- Not knowing the difference between the final keyword in Java and the const keyword in C. That's bad mmmkay?
- Challenge me to arm wrestling (and win...it hurts my tender man-feelings)
How many of these things have actually happened during an interview?
ReplyDeleteThe arguing definitely...crying almost...have had some really frustrated people...and sometimes #9 too.
ReplyDeleteThe other stuff I just made up...but would be funny if they happened. ;)

ReplyDeleteI will remember when you will interview me:)
Have a nice week end!
I conducted a phone interview the other day. The (male) interviewee did NOT describe the final keyword to my satisfaction...and didn't get the job.
