>>
>>730733518
Yes but you'll need to drink more of it
>>
>>730733020
Project confidence, you're a team player, flexible when it comes to work, determined to help the company thrive.
>>
>>730733475
That's what I've been doing wrong
>>
>>730733020
>>730733020
Act like u own the place without being an asshole and its pretty much assured you get the job. Confidence is so the key to landing all jobs. Once ur in the interview stage the jobs urs if u own it
>>
>>730734474
Holy shot don't do that. They'll be too threatened.
>>
>>730734466
Will do buddy
>>
>>730733020

>>
>>730734564

I thought I was applying for a sales job, but it turned out to be a supervisor role.

I got a call back, so that a good thing right?

I'm nervous as fuck
>>
>>730733020
Research the company so you have a little background on them. Prepare a couple of thoughtful questions to ask. Like something about advancement opportunities and company growth.
>>
>>730734775
Dont be u should be stoked, theyll train you just make sure to ask all the questions u need. Focus on what youll need to succeed, not what could go wrong. And if thats hard, focus and what u can do to prevent those things from going wrong.
>>
>>730733020
>>730734775
Depends on the job really but
>be confident
>be friendly
>be humble when appropriate, these people will be your new bosses
>don't speak too much or too little when answering questions
>be honest, bosses like people who are upfront about shit
>show potential
>when answering questions about experience etc, if you're good at making similes and drawing comparisons you can use literally almost anything to make you look like a better supervisor. eg: used to volunteer coach kids on weekends -> they can see it as good leadership skills etc

>>730734924
This. Even if they're a smaller mob or a family-run business try find out some shit from people around town or people that used to work there. Larger companies, use the internet.

>>730735048
This. Try to show that you have potential and willingness to learn and improve your skills.
>>
>>730735048
It's at a video game/electronics retailer

any advice on questions that I should ask them?
>>
don't go drunk
>>
>>730733020
Constantly reference your time on /b/ and your knowledge and mastery of memes
>>
>>730735330
But another anon said I should drink before it

Who can I trust?
>>
>>730735407
Don't, just don't. Don't smoke weed before either and don't come in smelling like cigarettes.
>>
walk me throught your resume

tell me about yourself

what are your skills

what are your weaknesses

why did you leave or planning to leave your current employer

what do you consider fun

what roles do you want to assume

what is your wage target

can you take a drug test


those are the most common types of questions i have gotten asked during IT interviews so i cannot say about your employer


but they are common so prepare your anwsers


also they might say do you have any questions for us.

you must ask two questions one i use is what is the company/office culture like.

good luck

>>730735407

its your future not mine

>>
>>730735710
That's actually a good idea, I'll ask them why they picked that company
>>
>>730735603
These. OP you said it's a supervisor position. Expect questions about situations like, if A and B don't get along and X happens what do you do?

A big part of a supervisor position is being able to make the right decision in an instant. So expect questions like that.

A hates B
B doesn't hate A
A keeps trying to screw over B
A is your best employee
What do?

n shit like that.
>>
>>730735679
go get fake pee if they as that, its 30 dollars at the smoke shops it fucking works. trust me on that. dont use the heating pad just wear tight underwear and stick the can their a half hour before your drug test it will be your body temp and just pour it in the cup and done you passed.
>>
>>730735961
I have no supervisor experience.

I have no idea why they called me back. I'm seriously expecting to ask if they have any lower tier roles that I could fill.

I know the industry quite well.
>>
>>730736017
>this level of paranoia
Most large companies even just do mouth swabs bro, piss/hair tests are too expensive and take too much time. Also it sounds like he's going for a supervisor position at gamestop, so they're not even gunna care enough to drug test him to be honest.
>>
>>730736017
I doubt that there will be a drug test.

I'm willing to bet most of them smoke weed there anyway
>>
>>730735679
It's not about taking it it's about how you answer the question about taking it
>>
>>730736186
Nothing wrong with having no supervisor experience. Everybody has to get their first supervisor position at some point. Just try to be calm, collected, confident and if you get a chance try to show some leadership skills and you'll be good. Show potential for growth and willingness to learn and you're in.
>>
>>730736204
not gamestop

But pretty much this
>>
>>730733020
Do the bottle flip thing
>>
>>730736204
paranoia?

well every job i got asked for a piss test it has something to do with insurance regs for a lot of companies.
>>
>>730736395
what country?
>>
>>730736186
> I'm seriously expecting to ask if they have any lower tier roles that I could fill.
Don't do this. That'll mark you as "content" which means they'll leave you in that position and won't consider you for promotions etc later on. Go for gold and just be willing to learn shit. They know it's your first time being a supervisor, they can see it on your resume. They probably picked you BECAUSE you have extensive knowledge of the industry, compared to maybe 4 other dudes that don't know shit or have no experience.
>>
>>730733020
Don't wear underwear, take a Cialis.

You want a good outline of your cock at leather stage to show dominance.
>>
>>730735566
Weed is the best you can do JUST before the interview, it will calm you down.
Also the scotch improves your confidence a bit, bosses like that.

>>730736467
I didn't think of it that way.

They called me in for an interview, so there must be something in there they liked.

I did a bunch of voluntary youth work when I was younger. People generally respond to that quite well
>>
>>730736629
My Dubs confirm
>>
>>730736772
dubs have spoken

no alcohol or drugs

walk in and sit behind the interviewers desk and put your feet up on it, then fire him.
>>
>>730737210
I am the boss now

>>730737322

HR here.
Confirm this.
95% chance of job
>>
>>730737383
Not anymore I'm not
>>
>>730733020
At the end of the interview, ask if there's anything in your resume that concerns them.
>>
look at job spec, understand what it is they actually want from the candidate, bend your experiences to fit the spec. don't be a dick.
>>
>>730737641
>don't be a dick.
what if you're a cock model
>>
When the interview starts to end, ask a casual personal question to show the interest in the other person. Example: "what's your favorite drink? I like scotch most."
>>
>>730737880

in fact I got some right here

> pulls out a flask with mlp on it
>>
>>730737641
I took in my resume and they said they would contact me if they had anything available.

Got a call the next day for an interview.

Their facebook page had a post looking for a supervisor so I put 2 and 2 together
>>
Ask questions about the company team events to show you are a team player, if there is a Christmas/Halloween party, is there a weekly team beer evening?
>>
ask him if he likes daggers
