Bleeeaaaaggghhh.
So... why can't potential employers just call your references and ask them to describe how perfect you would be for a job? Why do they sometimes preface the conversation with "well we really want someone with more experience but let's talk to you anyway" (hooray for self-fulfilling prophecy!)? Why do they always want to know your life goals and career plan when all you want is a steady job that you can leave at work at the end of the day? Why is the only area I feel comfortable talking about, the area of creativity?

Interviewing for a job is really intended to show how well you play the role of interviewee. Not to mention playing dress-up.
ReplyDeleteNow that I think of it, I can imagine one of my least favorite coworkers doing really well at job interviews...
