Job Interview

[magicroundabout]

I have one tonight.
Agency just phoned me up saying a company is interested in me and wants to see me tonight after work.

Trouble is i don't wear shirt & Tie to work so i'm just in Jeans and a shitty (not the BCFC kind) top.

All i'm thinking is first impressions and all that :roll:

[DMR]

you're fucked then

i'd advise punching the interviewer in the face

[Kinky Tom]

Take your current boss out back and 'do him over' in order to nick his suit - assuming of course he/she wears one.  

In fact if your boss is female I'd suggest you don't follow my instructions, as turning up in a blouse and a skirt may affect your chances of landing the job further than turning up in your civvies would.

[Piemonte]

You should be ok, just explain that its a casual dress code etc at your current place. If they turn you down on that basis, then they're not worth working for anyway

I have an assessment day, in Leeds, for a new job next Wednesday.  Not really looking forward to it that much, but if you want a bigger pay packet, company car and a much better job, that's the sort of thing you need to do I suppose.

 You can't leave Zurich.There's Z in all of us :?

I'm working for Openwork now anyway, so I suppose there's an O in me!!  It'll be a sad day, but a day not too far in the future, I hope!!

I just bought a suit about ten minutes ago. How strange and coincidental.

Why not get someone from home to bring your suit to your work?

[magicroundabout]

couple of things why.

1, My wife doesn't finish till 5:30 and works in Halesowen. (i'm in centre of Brum)

2, I don't have one

All my old shirt and ties etc got binned when i got the job i'm in now cos i didn't need them anymore.

Got a couple of nice shirts and trousers for meetings.
If i get the job i will have to splash out on my wifes Burtons card for new suits etc

[Onion_Jimbo]

This is the first suit Ive ever wore. I'm wearing it right now. I look damn good. I bought it so me and my mates can look cool in Vegas. Oh man Im gonna win some money.

[Batch]

I think you should be honest at tell them that you will be casually dressed and why, but you'd like to make the right impression so if  they'd prefer you can postpone the interview until a later date.  

I have 4 interviews now:

1 in Swindon tomorrow, then off to 1 in Aldershot,
1 in Chppenham on Friday,
1 in High Wycombe on Tuesday (2nd interview following phone interview).

I thought I really messed up the phone interview too....

White ruffles, top hat and cane?

[yeo]

Ive never owned a suit and only worn one twice.Once at my Brothers wedding and the other time when I played a Gangster in Bugsy Malone at The Octagon Theatre Yeovil.

[Onion_Jimbo]

ahahha how old were you then?


It makes you feel like a professional. I wish i did have a top hat and a cane

[reeves4england]

I love wearing a suit. It makes me feel important and powerful!
