I had my first proper interview today

By proper I mean official office-type interview with a panel and so on, not "can you count? good, you've got the job at the bar". Not that I'm taking anything away from bar work there, i've been there and done that quite enough times already.

Anyway, it was for a year-in-industry placement.
An hour and a half long, starting at 9am (bastards), involving 2 people grilling me over my CV and application letter, comprehension tests, all that sorta thing. No group stuff, I never saw any of the other 9 candidates.

Despite the fact I've never done this before in my life and did no preparation apart from checking my suit was clean, I think I did quite well. Why? They offered me the job at 4pm today - go me!

I think he's going to be working at a topless bar for females. (Old ladies)
If he says anything else, he's lying!

Re: I had my first proper interview today

I got the job about an hour after the first proper interview I had, then I quit the job. In the 2 months since that, I've had 5 interviews and failed the lot.


Bollocks.

Sounds like you work for an orifice exploration company.

See if they'll give MM a job as a consultant. He has all the necessary experience.
