THINGS NOT TO DO OR SAY AT YOUR JOB INTERVIEW ~ See photo of interviewer's family on desk, point, and start laughing uncontrollably. ~ Ask if there is only one emergency exit, grin and say, "I bet this floor would be in trouble if someone barricaded that." ~ Inquire on office policy of friends staying over. ~ Over-emphasize your ability to use a copier. ~ Ask if it's OK for you to sit on the floor. ~ Admit having little impact on the overhead budget because you swiped all the supplies from your previous employer. ~ Although parking was free, insist they validate something or you're not leaving. ~ Mention your resume would have been stronger, but you didn't feel like making up anything else. ~ Walk into interviewer's office with a tape measure, measure office from a few angles, put away and declare: "NOW we can begin." ~ As you walk into the office for first time, ask receptionist to hold all your calls.(from You Make Me Laugh)Labels: humor, interviews, jobs, jokes |
