in reply to (OT) Number 1 mistake to not avoid during an interview
-
So why do people feel compelled to display about as much emotion as they do when filing their fingernails? Is this supposed to be "professionalism"?
His answer to me floored me. I expected maybe "yeah that would be great" or "no thanks I don't touch the stuff" or something like that. Nope! His answer to me was "No! I came to interview for a job not drink coffee and engage in small talk!"
Needless to say the interview did not progress too much further. I expect some social graces from co-workers...
