Jerry Seinfeld once equated job interviews with first dates, explaining that only with a job interview is there little chance you will end up naked at the end of it. He was right.
My face hurts from all of the false smiling, laughing at inane jokes (the interview panels told some too) Being politically correct ALL the time. Just having to sit up straight. It is hard to give a good impression all slouched over the arm of a chair with your feet tucked up under your backside. If they wanted that people would interview candidates in their lounge room. This could be a revealing interview.
In this weather when I am on the couch it is t-shirt and underwear. I would wear a tie, of course.
My suit has never had such a good workout and although I have a reasonable tie collection I have realised that I have a limited number of shirts that are suitable for wearing with a tie. Making a string of consecutive days of professional business attire quite the fashion dilemma. Only one thing for it, buy new shirts to add to my collection of 60+ shirts. It takes six weeks to complete the rotation of long sleeve shirts alone.
My favourite interview question so far has been, “If you were an animal what would you be and why?” I would love your responses to this question, either about yourself or your recommendations for how I should have responded to the question. Please leave a comment.
