Thursday, August 04, 2005 4:13:00 PM The saddest part about this is that the person who knows how to smooth-talk through this interview questions get the job. Meanwhile the true honest good deserving worker (who doesnt like to brag or is not as smooth) gets the mediocre position and pay. What a messed-up system. |

Tuesday, August 02, 2005 12:37:04 AM I thought it was very informative and made several good points. Perhaps in the future they will come in handy. The wording of the list was more in depth than I initially anticipated, but then again, it was primarily directed to those individuals included in the older set who have worked for numerous years to develop their skills and their careers. Nevertheless, I enjoyed it and more preparation concerning interviews and jobs can only be beneficial anyway |

Monday, August 01, 2005 3:51:05 PM Some good questions to keep in mind. Nothing worse than arriving at a job interview and being stumped. One piece of advice I give thought it to take your time. When asked a question, feel free to mull it over a few seconds instead of blurting out the first thing that comes to mind. |

Sunday, July 31, 2005 4:05:17 PM Wow. Thats good stuff. I think I'm okay at interviews but sometimes I have to think before I'm able to answer. These came on here at a good time though because I am looking for a job at the moment! |

Saturday, July 30, 2005 12:13:28 PM hahaha naoscaire. i liked this article though. made some good points but some of them were kind of obvious... like dont point out huge negative aspects about the job or company that you're applying for/to. |

Saturday, July 30, 2005 10:02:24 AM I once applied for a job in a toy store... I intimidated the manager when I told him about my martial arts and weight-lifting experience... I obviously didn't get the job... Also, don't tell them that you like knives. |
