Stroopy121 Posted May 12, 2011 Report Share Posted May 12, 2011 Now the question is do you repeat the arriving late with facial piercing tactic for the next round?Think I might take it up a gear; I won't show up at all and I'll pounce on my interviewer as she leaves work and pierce her face. If she has big tits, I'll pierce it with my dick. LADxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he's the best candidate then he should get it. He was only late because he was locked inside the carpark in the wrong building... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good thing having facial piercings in the first place doesn't make you look like a tit, otherwise he would be in trouble! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I later spoke to one of them who said he was called up while on the bus back from the football, he was absolutely steaming on a bus full of steaming football fans!

Soda Jerk Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 I once got called in for an "immediate interview" whilst I was playing shitty arcade games down at the beach. Didn't have time to go home and change into a suit or nothing (which I let them know about on the phone before I arrived). Turned up in 3/4 shorts and a hoody. Nailed it. Got the job.CV's/Application forms and references play a more important role than interviews, so I've been led to believe from working in HR. I imagine every company will view it differently though.

Jaaakkkeee Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 I turned up for the SECOND interview of my current job and forgot the boss' name. I'm horrible at interviews. If you're CV is good and your covering letter talks you up I think all you really need to do at an interview is seem friendly and enthusiastic.

Stroopy121 Posted May 13, 2011 Report Share Posted May 13, 2011 I figured the piercings couldn't make too much difference with all the swastikas and cocks tattooed on my face and head anyway.Plus, I'm applying for a technical engineering role - when I spoke to the interviewer afterwards he said I interviewed really well but he felt he had to point out that if I were to be meeting a client I'd have to take them out. The penny then dropped and I apologised for still having them in, told him I meant to take them out this morning but it completely slipped my mind. The interviewer told me it's absolutely not a problem, piercings and tattoos are just that and have no impact on your ability to do the job - unfortunately some clients can be more closed minded.I'm lucky in so much as it's fortunate my interviewer was as open minded as he is but when a company are looking for good employees then only a few would turn you away if you're a good candidate because of some jewellery.As as for this 'you don't deserve the job' shit, fuck right off. I left a lip and nose ring in to go to a job interview and that somehow makes me less fucking worthy? I suppose if I'd forgotten to gel my hair or if my pen burst in my pocket and I had to do the interview with an ink stain on my shirt then I should've been told to stop wasting the company's fucking time?xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
