2021-07-30 at 4:29 PM UTCThe most important thing at an interview is not your qualifications (which you'd already have been screened for anyway)... it's how you come across at the interview.
I've interviewed plenty of people in my time and I'm not hiring anyone I don't like regardless of how qualified they are. I'll give someone who isn't fully qualified a chance before a qualified person if I like them better and they seem like they'd fit in with the culture of the business.
I interviewed one guy at my last job who had worked there in the past...my office had a window that overlooked the other workers and during the interview while I was asking him questions he'd keep looking out the window and waving at people he knew...he was so cocky and convinced he was an automatic hire because of his past history there.
I didn't hire him because I thought he was a twat. -

you have your back to the window ?
thats not very fengshui and/or àlpha. -
2021-07-30 at 4:40 PM UTCYeah that's why I always get hired ON THE SPOT I am lot different on the computer. I know how to be normal and I despise people that can't keep up that mask.
I HATE the crazies that talk to themselves in public i think they aren't actually mentally ill and they just do it to be attention seeking faggots so I ignore them when they go HURRR DURRR LOOK AT ME because I don't look at faggots.
I look the employer in the eye and tell them what I can do, why I want to work there and anything they need to know about me. They pick up on the fact that i'm fucked pretty easily but they can tell that I am a bit wild but have the capacity to get shit done, people see things in me and like to give me chances.
I have never had trouble with interviews it comes naturally to me somehow, same with sales I am good with people because i'm depressed and want to die so I have no time to be rude to people I Just want to enjoy what time I have left and try to be a positive person which people seem to like -

No, I was overlooking them...he has his back to the window and kept turning around to wave at people mid interview...which obviously was disrespectful and earned him NO JOB.
His "Buddies" came in my office later "why didn't you hire Nick (or whatever his name was I don't remember)...he's a great worker!!!"
"Because nick is a twat, get back to work this isn't breaktime" -
2021-07-30 at 4:43 PM UTC"I value health and safety very much and I like to be a productive worker while also being a safe one" that's the kind of shit I say in interviews
-
2021-07-30 at 4:46 PM UTCI don't have friends I am not a social person I don't know anyone anywhere and I have no past experiences or entitlement and don't even really want to be there or do anything but I know when I am there I gotta keep up and I can work circles around everyone.
Having a panic attack at work just gives you an adrenaline boost I am a literal super human and go twice as fast as everyone else. I find other people with anxiety disorders and give them positive reinforcement and tell them that anxiety is a super power and they believe me and say YEAH MAN YOU"RE RIGHT LOOK HOW FAST I AM and then i tell them to slow down because health and safety.
I am good at making friends ( not too friendly i got written up before and learned my lesson) at work until I show up puking from heroin and miss a week and then ghost them all forever and burn the briges -

o. i guess he didnt respect you then.
did you wonder why over a glass after he left.
why didnt the twat respect me. why. -
2021-07-30 at 4:48 PM UTCThey need more safety oriented people YES I will join the health and safety committee if I worked for Amazon because I have experience working safe, I have been injured at work and it fucking sucks so I avoid it as much as possible.

everyone in the management who is competent at managing knows this. -

No, as mentioned I quickly determined he was a twat. A person who doesn't show the basic respect that even someone with only 1/4 of a brain should show at a job interview clearly wouldn't work out.
3 types of "respect", basic respect for strangers (aka opening doors for them etc), earned respect and respect driven by fear.
I like to see all 3 in action. -

Is that how you get your jollies? by wasting peoples time? Because I don't do that I don't play corporate social games. How about you give me a time and I will be there at that time, I can do that if you can not waste my time by making me sit around for 30 minutes like everyone else does.
That's the kinda of employer I want to work for.
A couple minutes accounts for bad traffic and bad luck. Waiting sucks for everyone. Besides first impressions matter, whether they ought to or not is not is beyond our control.
I'm not trying to hire you fam. Just saying, if you want something above an entry level corpo job there is some basic stuff it'd be in your interest to adhere to.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

says the CHINK lmao okay pal even the asian immigrants when I tell them "hey man you know you can refuse the work right" they think I am trying to get them fired and get all upset.
But when they learn about workers rights and the safety shit their eyes go real wide YES you can REFUSE WORK and still keep your job and get paid. The government is up the asses of these bitches constantly and use that as an excuse not to give people a fair shake they always blame the government instead of themselves.
Which makes sense because literally any business or industry is heavily regulated so yeah when something does fuck up is it the companies fault? Partly for sure but government regulations can make people do some retarded things.
I have had to stare at the wall many times knowing I could easily move around and do something else but I can't because of regulation. Gotta follow the regulation you can't be some chink that says WATCH ME BOSS MAN I BREAK REGULATION GET WORK DONE FAST YOU SEE I WORK GOOD and nobody wants that.
You will be physically stopped be security if you try because liability exists.

I know how the corporate world works and I usually end up showing up early waiting around. I have showed up early most of my life which is how I learned it's a bad idea. I already adheared to it and learned that it was for the birds.
I doubt you have worked as wide a variety of positions as I have in all kinds of settings and I see the same shit everywhere. Very rarely do I ever get somewhere a few minutes early and start the interview right when It's supposed to start.
I have waited up to an hour before and even longer. I know for a fact that it's a game and by not playing it I am already a cut above most brainless idiots that only know how to bark and roll over. -
2021-07-30 at 5:07 PM UTCI have seen so many people show up late to interviews and it's so fucking easy to play off and nobody ever gives a shit. Maybe this country is just a third world shit hole but there is always some WOMAN that shows up 5 minutes late because of her kids.
And then the immigrant that speaks poor english shows up late and acts confused and they hire us all and I was there early. So what's the fucking point like honestly.
Every time I try to be normal and follow these supposed rules of society it just blows up in my face and I stand there feeling like an idiot -
