I was the interviewer and the guy just kept asking "how much are you paying?" He was very qualified and I really wanted to like him, but that incessant "How much are you paying?" drove me nuts Finally I told him we were interested (stupid, stupid) and that we were offering $70,000 per year and he LAUGHED at me and said no way, no f'ing way so we said our goodbyes. One week later he was laid off from his job, was desperate for "ANYTHING" even my lowly 70K job, I told him no, he called me a B**** and it's been 2 years and he's still out of work. OH :( :(

depends on the job that you are going for, go in to the interview in a professional manor with a commanding air about you, a firm hand shake makes an immediate strong impression, a limp pussy hand shake and you've immediately lost. if the interviewer comes across with a bit of a laugh and a joke, don't be afraid to respond, however, in my experience of both being an interviewer and interviewee, these pleasantries usually come at the end.\n\nanother thing... make sure you have plenty of questions to ask them, make yourself at least appear interested in the company that you are looking to work for, promotion prospects, pension schemes etc.\n\nbest of luck

I have a 23 year old neice that had a job interview and she had put on her best blouse and jacket and came into the dining room to tell use she was off to her interview about 2 minutes later she came in the door madder than a wet cat she got to the car and noticed she had only panty hose on from the waist down.When she came in slamming the door we were laughing about her choice of dress.She did get the job.

You never know what an interviewer will ask.  Bad interviewers are as tough as good ones, because bad ones will not give you a chance to show off what you've got.\n\nThe main tactic in an interview is to do most of the talking.  You are there to brag about yourself and convince them that they need you.  Be honest.  If you don't know an answer, say "they did not teach us that, but I can learn about it if you need me to."\n\nIn my toughest interview, the man kept refuting my answers with research.  I stuck to my guns and gave my reasoning.  Later I found out that as soon as I left the room, he said, "he's the one."  I felt like a whipped dog, but I had actually impressed them.\n\nShow enthusiasm--firm handshake, smile, act excited about what you do.\n\nThe novice interviewer will start by saying "Tell me about yourself."  I love this one, because I take over and give a dissertation about how I work, my philosophies, my qualifications, etc.\n\nIf you get the interviewer who won't ask anything, you need to find a way to work in what you want to say.\n\nThe main thing--go in with notes to look at.  That is acceptable, and makes you look organized and professional.  Jot down the main points that you want to make.  Also, have a pen, and jot notes when they speak to you.\n\nOf course, dress professionally.  Practice a firm handshake with men.  Do not just put your hand out--push your hand forward so that they don't accidently grab your fingers.  Do not give them a limp handshake.  Look them in the eye.  Smile.  Do not wink or flirt.\n\nIf they are soft-spoken, speak softly with them (but firmly).  If they are louder, match them.\n\nHave a resume ready and offer it when you first meet.  Have another copy in front of you with your notes.\n\nDon't expect anything, because you can't know what to expect.  Just be prepared, and go in there and have fun.\n\nIf you don't get this one, the next time try to line up more than one interview.  It is less disappointing than doing one interview at a time, because you still have something in front of you.\n\nKnock 'em dead!

Thanx i needed a laugh!\n1 for u.\n\nA pigs ear\nRecently a man lost his ear, and it was replaced by doctors with a pigs ear. \nThey trimmed it down a bit and made it look humanly before attaching it. Few weeks later and the man goes back to the Doctor and says: \n"Doctor, i keep hearing this noise and its doing my head in." \nTo which the doctor replies: \n"Don't worry, its just a bit of crackling"

My favorite part of the interview is when I get to ask questions. They love this one: if you were to hire me for this position what would be one bit of wisdom you would tell me to help me be succesful in this orginization. \nanother important question: What would my first task be and what difficulties should I expect to encounter.. i have lots more but trying to keep it short so you can prepare...

Here's some for ya:\n\n  A couple just got a new house. The husband turned to his wife and ask her to go to the hardware store and get a door hinge for him. She kindly agreed and left. \nWhen she got to the hardware store, got the hinge, and put it on the counter in fornt of the clerk. He noticed that she didn't have any screws for it, so he asked her ''Do you want a screw for that hinge?'' \n\nShe looked back at him and said ''No, but I'll blow you for that toaster in the window.''\n \n\n  One day a teacher went into her class room and saw the word, “penis” written in small letters on the chalkboard. She erased it and went on with the day's lesson. The next day, she came in and saw the same word on the chalkbaord, but a little bit bigger. She erased it and went on with her lesson.\nEach of the next several days, the teacher would come in to find “penis” on the board, a little larger each time. She went in one morning, expecting to dinf it again, but instead the chalkboard read: “The more you rub it, the bigger it gets.” \n\nCheer's

first of all did you avoid all the don'ts of an interview.  were you dressed appropriately.. no smoking.. or cutting down past employers.. had some knowledge of company inwhich you were applying. looked the interviewer in the eye..had a firm handshake. answered all questions to the best of your ability.. asked good questions..expressed all your good qualifications.  also how did you feel when u walked out. did the interviewer appear attentive.  were u called back for a second interview. did interviewer say "DONT CALL US WE WILL CALL YOU. DO you think you are quaLIied and the right person for the job.  good luck.. and dont forget to follow up after a week or so.. to check status of decision.letting them know u r still interested.

That was too funny!!  I also am a blonde.  However, I am confident in my own intelligence level to appreciate a dumb blonde joke.  I find them quite entertaining!!!
