Await the telephone interview, conducted by 17 year old HR newly-graduated chicky-babe. Something along the lines of:
17 y.o. HR chick: "Mr Mach, why did you apply for this job?"
Mach E: "I need the money"
17 y.o. HR chick: "And what would your salary expectations be?"
Mach E: "I am not a greedy man - enough to keep the ex-wives off my case and some left over for occasional recreational drug usage would do it"
17 y.o. HR chick: "Mr Mach, tell us why you would be the best person for this job"
Mach E: "Cos I am the greatest"
17 y.o. HR chick: "What would you describe as your greatest strengths?"
Mach E: Most everything - have you got all night?"
17 y.o. HR chick: "And what would you describe as your greatest weaknesses?"
Mach E: Blondes and the bottle, not necessarily in that order"
17 y.o. HR chick: "And if you do get the job, where do you see yourself in 5 years time?"
Mach E: "As far away from aeroplanes as I can get, on the deck of my boat, half way through a bottle of good red and you in my arms, babe - by the way, can you cook?"
Some operators really believe that they can screen out unsuitable candidates by paying recruiting agencies to ask these inane questions. Does it cut the other way? Do good candidates sometimes decide during or after an interview that insults their intelligence not to proceed with their application?
