Straight up truth!

[motion denied]

Love it.

I seen this on imgur a while back, and thought it was great. I hate having to bullshit during job interviews.

[The Intransigent Faction]

YES! If I were religious, that interview is the sort of thing I'd be praying for every night.

I read an article not all that long ago about clothing retailers and some other places asking things like "You're a new addition to the crayon box. What colour would you be?" It's just inane at this point.

If not that, I'll settle for an interview like this:

the first job interview i had this is more or less how i responded and the person giving the interview was so weird about it. By the end they essentially expressed how exasperated they were because I was being perfectly honest. I did try and pass that off as a good thing to my credit 'well wouldn't it be good to have someone as honest and forthright as me working for you?'


I didn't get the job, by the way.

My friend had the most straight forward interview I've ever heard of. He just went in, was asked if he wanted to work there, he said yes, then they just gave him the paper work and he was off to get drug tested. Didn't even sit down.

[M-L-C-F]

I had a job interview last Friday, and the guy was a dick. It's a union job, and I said that was good. Cause it meant job security, and he spouted off something about laziness. Typical manager bullshit, and I said that at my grocery job, that I supported my union. I doubt I'll be hearing from that jackass tomorrow. I wanted that job, even if I'm critical of the UAW, like I was the UFCW. It has good pay, and good benefits after 90 days. I'd be able to live well, and not struggle at all. If they call me, awesome. If not, then whatever. He can go fuck himself.

If I do get it, then moment I'm in the UAW, I'm going to have a talk with my union representative. I'm gonna share my criticisms as a Marxist-Leninist with them. About the leadership's treason to our class, and to the Marxists who helped found the union. I'll show my support, but that's it's critical support. If it makes me unpopular, then so be it.

I hate when I go to a job interview and they ask, "Why do you think you're the most qualified candidate for this position?" I feel like replying, "I haven't met any of your other candidates so I'm in no position to answer your question honestly." :(

[Rosa Partizan]

oh God yes. My boss at the lawyer's office asked me "why do you want this job?" and I was like "because I'd like to learn more about juridical procedures" when all I thought was "a lot of money for not so much work".

[Slavic]

I think the worse are the ones where you have to talk about

"Experiences where you should leadership"
"Experiences where you worked within a group"
ect.

Most of these questions are just personality bullshit questioners. Like those 120 personality question tests you have to take for minimum wage jobs in retail.

[M-L-C-F]

Most of the questions they ask you are bullshit, if not all of them. Then those fucking tests are fucking annoying as shit.

I got a job interview at a dairy processing plant tomorrow morning. I hope I get it, it's $12.00 USD an hour. The job I'm interviewing for is packing. Where I'll be packing milk and/or ice cream into boxes. If it's tough work, it's worth it for the pay. I'll be able to live really well on that. Which will be nice for a change. I'm gonna make it rain up in this *****! :p

[consuming negativity]

"Why should we hire you?"

"Because I am not stupid and I will do the work."

I'll have had this same job for 4 years in January. :laugh:

Well off on 12? Goddamn I should move to Detroit. I've been getting interviews for jobs paying around that but here in Cali, that won't cut it. School is also fucking things up, but I gotta get my vocational certificate to make some real cash. Until then I gotta try to find a second job, and 1 new one. #ClassStruggle I don't know if I'm interpreting it correctly. Lol

No you shouldn't :unsure:

[Ethics Gradient, Traitor For All Ages]

Detroit is actually pretty badass, it's just even better now cause it's a like a themepark displaying things to come. But for real everyone there is nice and friendly, definitely feel for them. If I were going to reboot my life I think that's where I would do it.

[Magón]

I got lucky with my current job. I could say anything, and they would have hired me. And they did, because I was the only one looking into the position, and they were really desperate to fill it.

[M-L-C-F]

I did get the job. It's alright, way better than retail. It's harder than my last job, but the pay makes up for it for sure. :)

Well, that's relative to what I've made in the past. To be honest, I'd rather live in California than here. I wanna move to San Francisco, but I don't have the money to do so.


No you shouldn't :unsure:

Hey, Detroit is actually pretty cool. Other than Chicago, it's probably the best place in the Midwest, I think. If anything, because of the radical history here alone.

Other than the rich suburbs, yes, there are a lot of friendly people here. I love the city of Detroit, and even if I was able to move to the San Francisco Bay Area right now. I'd still miss this city.

I've had interviews that began with "do you have any questions for me?" And they never asked me anything, so I had to awkwardly keep the conversation going for 30 mins. I didn't get the job, but felt it was incredibly lame. They sèemed to have made it clear they weren't interested in what I had to say, only whether I was was able to show whether I gave a shit about them - which, come on, its a job, I only care about whether you who have the money and are going to give some of that to me in exchange for my labor. Not about why you like working for this place, what your hobbies are etc...

But of course I need the job so I act like I give a shit. They know this, and get to feel like being a celebrity interviewed by a sychophantic journalist for a short time. Assholes.
