The job interview of today? A true buffoonery!

That wasn't nice. It was really unprofessional but since they're the boss, we couldn't complain at all. It's sad when we encounter this kind of company when seeking for a job. I hope you get it though.

Hmmm.. It's actually normal. I know I'd also react the same but after having the task to interview people, we actually do that too. You see, the first interview comes because we'd like to see the person behind the application letter/resume/transcript. Call it weird, but we're looking for the aura of the applicant. If it doesn't feel "right" in the way he/she talks or answers and his persona altogether, then we'd not bother looking into the papers submitted. You should be lucky you were called first prior to checking the documents you've submitted - at least it gave you a chance to meet and make an impression. Further, with the number of applicants for just 3 slots, you'd definitely assume that the guy has been busy interviewing a lot of people the last couple of days, and perhaps since the company you've applied to wasn't a huge one (multi-national) they don't have the staff to do interviews and hiring. Guess that person was busy somewhere else, that's why he was late. There are many factors that goes around an interview. But remember, you need the job and they're giving it - it will be their terms. Unless you have highly specialized skill that only a few could fill the position. Have a great mylot experience ahead!

Job interviews are to know each other where mutual respect is of paramount importance. If the employer is showing no respect to the candidate who is getting interviewed, there is no point in getting a job there as your tenure will be difficult. If you are going to be respected as an employee, that's the great motivation you can get. Go for a job where you can perform better and respected by the employer. All the Best.

Well alberello, thats really too bad, but lets hope that you answered those two question correctly...its seems like it was not a real interview...but who knows...I definately understand you being a little ticked off... Good luck with that job or any other one that you interview for.... Good Luck!!!!!

Sounds to me like, his attitude is the reason he needs to hire someone in the first place. Might be the type, no one can work for. Good luck finding something.

Job interviews...what a joke! What bothers me about the whole job interviewing process is you feel more than confident during your interview, some dorky general manager finds some way to just rain on your parade. I feel just like you, al.

Reminds me of recruitment process in the bible, the owner of the vineyard will just go to the street corner and select the "head" needed to harvest. I won't categorize this as an interview.

Some job interviews seem shady. Once I had one when I asked about 5 times about details, but they kept talking away. They didn't even write in the advert that they're looking for people who would sell insurance policies... well, ah-kay, not my thing... but I just asked basic questions about whether I'm gonna get a name list of people I can/would call and where I should worj exactly (on the phone or in person), or how much money I could get... but they guy kept talking about that how much of a good business it is, and he tried tom hit on me as well... yeah, right. I knew about two minutes later that this is bullocks and a scam.

They do not realize that we are looking for a job we really need. Normally, we prepare the interview with some days in advance and at the end we just waste our time. But, let's look for a better place to work. Never give up.
