Smooth Operator 10 Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I've got one this afternoon and am wondering what to expect. Do I have to speak posh? Or wear a suit? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holden McGroin 7034 Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I had one a couple of years ago. They asked me loads of technical questions which I wasn't prepared for. Total flop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shows you can multi-task and prioritise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rikko 20 Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I've had a couple of them. Its basically just like a normal interview except over the phone, which makes it harder. Just prepare in the same way you would for a normal interview. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get one of your mates to text you halfway through the call, then go "Hold on.........I'll just stop you there........just got a text...............*then laugh for a couple of seconds*...........Ok, I'm back with you now............actually can you give me two seconds to reply to that?" Like mancy says, shows you can multi-task. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wacky's pissed off cos this kids got him round his little finger. He's supposed to be on paternity leave and the kid is making him work from home and is still claiming money of the dss for him being on paternity leave. Pussy whipped tbh.

NJS 4456 Posted August 2, 2006 Share Posted August 2, 2006 I had one a few years ago which involved me phoning America for a job that was in Harlow - got it though. I also jointly conducted one a couple of months ago and recommended the lad out of all the people we'd "seen" - my boss warned me that the lad could be a raving tranny (which wouldn't have mattered of course) but he turned out okay (apart frm being yet another bloody Aussie).
