Interviews are a two ways process

In this period, I am struggling with interviews.
I spent a long time consulting, which took off all of my energies, mainly wasted to deal with the owner’s bad temper.
Nowadays, I am still consulting for a different company, and I am struggling with interviews.
It’s a jungle out there. Despite the Industry you are working for, sometimes I think that this virus went to the head of some!

Lately, I have come to the following conclusions.

It’s not a good idea to show up late without apologizing.
It’s not a good idea not to smile during an interview.
It’s not a good idea to neglect your grooming when you know you have an interview.
It’s not a good idea to come unprepared for an interview.
It’s not a good idea not to pay attention during the interview and repeat five times the same question.
It’s not a good idea to look down on your interlocutor during an interview.
It’s not a good idea not to drop a line when you said you would have, right after an interview. And yes, one month later is already too late!

It’s not a good idea even when you are the interviewer, and I am just the applicant!

“After careful consideration, I have decided that I will not be moving forward with your company”.

[The facts mentioned above happened in real life, only my answer has been more diplomatic!]


#respect don’t forget that #interviews are a #two-ways-process

    1. 🤣🤣 They made me call from a fourth person, not aware of all the messes they already did. I have been polite with him but they don’t deserve anything.
