Going to start interviewing for jobs I don't want just so I can say this, get it off my chest.

@ChrisExpTheNews if your employees are as passionate as you are about your business, they would be running their own business

@averykimball "We want to have the top people in the field for our entry and mid-level positions!"

"What are your your long-term goals?" None of your goddamn business?

@ChrisExpTheNews You don't have to lie about this. My current job I simply told them it looks interesting, that I'd like starting a greenfield project, smaller company would be interesting change of pace, and that it helped move my career in a good direction as I want to change industries.

@WilliamGrobman Depends on the type of person you're talking to. When I did warehousing for a local place and talked directly to the manager? Yeah, the dude understood that. But man, plenty of HR people just do not have the awareness...

@ChrisExpTheNews I love my job, but I've honestly considered interviewing just to let off steam

@ChrisExpTheNews First job I interviewed for, 16 years old: "So what makes you PASSIONATE about groceries?" ... ... I just want to make a little money working in the summer dude.

@ChrisExpTheNews I would hire you on the spot.

@ChrisExpTheNews "Do you have any questions?" "Yes. What is it about your job that makes coming to work worth the time and effort you put in it?" If HR isn't happy to work there, you are not going to be happy there.

@ChrisExpTheNews I said this at my last interview and was rejected for the position, almost assuredly because of what I said. It was a news agency, so no regrets. Essentially freelancing now.

@ChrisExpTheNews I once interviewed for a position where this was the first thing they asked. They didn't even put the company name in the ad, just the general location and job. It was just the first sign that the interviewer was terribly inept, and it was a terrible experience.

@ChrisExpTheNews What they don’t tell you is that they DO know this is bullshit. What this question is a test for is, how well you can LIE about how you really feel to please “The InGroup”. You’ll notice, that’s the next question and the one prior as well. It’s #dark .

@ChrisExpTheNews This is the part of the interview where they wish you to shower them in platitudes.

@ChrisExpTheNews @MorlockP My daughter got a job cleaning houses. Her trainer said: don’t do this just for the money. Me: Right. Do it for the fame and glamour.

@ChrisExpTheNews Entitlement and privilige on display right here.

@ChrisExpTheNews I applied for a job I wasn't interested in. I didn't prepare at all, Turned up late, gave crap answers, didn't ask any questions, interviewers were dicks, I was a dick....... and I got the job. Two years later...... Here we are.
