This. I firmly believe this cost me a senior position at AT&T. Its bullshit man i dont want to see what marcus from 3rd grade thinks about trump or look at my barbers grandson making stupid faces. I have friends and family and i have 1000 other ways to interact with them. The interviewer looked at me like i said i was from north korea. Theres no other reason i would have been denied that position except my age. And the fat bitch that got it was a year younger with half my experience. Fuck this shit

Laughed really hard imagining that in the cardboard voice of an hr drone reading off a page. You know the type. They only put any inflection on the last two or three words like they suddenly remember theyre talking to a person. Like a fifth grader reading in class

I remember bombing one interview hard and just told them fire.

They actually offered the job surprisingly but then again they had a massive turnover rate so it really didn't matter.

Interviewers are very demanding today, its always that creepy stare they give when you can tell they are thinking and sizing you up, it feels generally uncomfortable being examined with such nose_y-ness.

So basically, if you are a Trump supporter you are not allowed a job.
Brb, gonna go delete every pro Trump thing I've posted on Facefuck.

The current year is ridiculous.

Nah don't worry about it, but it is best to keep political opinions private.

The person that asked about it turned out to be a Trump supporter. Ended up commenting that Hillary seems to be a criminal and that Trump is very polarizing to be safe.
>>
>>1506794
Ah, that's kind of a relief haha. Still gonna keep that shit private from now on, though.

So I take it you didn't get hired by tit chick? :)

My official list with grades has dates on them, so if I say that then I can't show my grades anymore. But I guess I have little choice.

I actually spend three years on my thesis which I had to do over again couple times due to deadlines.

God dammit you people really are autists. Is it that hard to bullshit your way through an interview and maintain a social networking profile?
>>
>>1506512

Just make one and make everything super private. Hide the friends list. "Like" a few normal things (like "Step Brothers" and Chipotle). Make sure the picture of you is not a selfie and the banner is something non-offensive

Wow I hate failbook but you technically need one
>>
>>1506977
Fuck off with Facebook shenaningans. I got an account but without any pictures or any of that shit.
>>
>>1506977
But i dont want a social networking profile

One which I got was "what are some recent deals we have worked on"

Unfortunately it was a company that kept that information private so despite knowing they would ask it and googling the night before, I couldn't find anything so had to say I didn't know. Pretty sure that question cost me the job.

I also hate being asked technical questions in interviews since it's not really the place for it.

Haha, I once asked how I would handle a complaint from Italy while I didn't even know what my job would entail.

I interviewed 1 person today and three yesterday, only one of them deserves the job and the rest need to try harder. Its tuff as fuck to interview people, but over time i will get better and just not care about the person anymore. four person interview at my company

>>
>>1508529
doesn't matter. those are bullshit questions. they just want to see whether you freeze up. make a quick decision. if they follow up give a creative reasoning.

there is a whole class of deliberately vague or even impossible to answer questions. they want to see you creatively thinking outside the box and be quick-witted. the actual content of your answer doesn't matter.

>asking 4chan for private equity advice
>>
>>1506546
It's an easy answer actually. "Because (name here) has a proven track record as CEO and I want to be part of the continued success of this growing company" or something along those lines.

It's funny to think about, though. In reality, is anyone's true answer not "because I need money?"

Lol fags, remember, you do them a favor by putting in your life in exchange for money. I have yet to find a job that is more interesting than doing nothing or working on your own projects. Your lifetime is your biggest asset, never forget that.
