Another Job Interview Today! YEAH ME!!!!

So, today I get to interview for a job.  Never thought it would happen again so quickly.  And I got an email from the company last week stating that the job had been filed, so it is a pleasant surprise!  Definitely a good day to take my Ritalin!!  Got to get my head on straight and be ready for all those stupid interview questions that really don’t tell you at all what kind of employee you are interviewing with.  I remember those questions.  I always liked the “what are your weaknesses?  what are your strengths?”  Blah, Blah, Blah…. 

What a waste of time most of those questions are.  Of course nobody is going to give you their true weaknesses, only weaknesses that the interviewer can perceive as strengths.  Duh.  And who is going to go in and say “Well, I sometimes I get distracted and forget where I am and what I am doing.”  Hmmm, would that be a problem..  No of course  not!

I hate standard interviews.  They just flat out suck.  It is worse for the hiring manager.  You have these people all coming in putting their best face forward and you just never know who will actually rise to the occasion and who will crash and burn.  I have hired both, so I know how difficult it is.  Those who crash and burn are people you will never forget!  The people who rise to the occasion are people you can be proud to say that you hired. 

So, I am off to impress hopefully my next boss!!  Wish me luck, I need it.  Jobs in the middle of nowhere are few and far between!!  And I really, really need a job right now!  Not only for the income, but also for the sanity!!!  Then again, sanity is pretty over rated now isn’t it!!!
