For the 2011 graduates, life begins when they apply for a job, report for interview and hope they're hired.
When I was in Pilipinas Kay Ganda Koh, there were not so manyy interviews except in the early part of my careers-CPA practitioner, corporate slave and an academician. Most of the jobs I got were from referrals.
In the US where you do not take an exam except for government positions, I've done a lot of interviews, mostly panel because someone in the organization should know if I really have the skills for the position I am being interviewed. How would a Human Resource Manager know if the the questions asked reflect my knowledge about " cooking " the books. har har har.
I had one experience when a young recruitment officer of the company shelved my resume before it was forwarded to the requisitioning officer just because she felt insecure for her friend in the department. (She was Asian but not a Filipino. She did not realize I that the Controller had already made his choice since I was the one who was the most qualified among the applicants. All he needed waas to ask me some questions that pertained to accounting and finance. No other questions. Lately, however, the interviewers were asking questions bordering from weird to creative and or from unethical to illegal questions.
I've gathered some of them and thought of answers I would come up with if I were applying.
Here are some of them and my response: What would your response be?
1. • If you were a superhero, who would you be and why?
Darna. What? You do not know Darna? rolleyes.
2. • If every time you entered a room your theme song played, what would it be and why?
Mission Impossible. Dan dan dan dan dan. Because I feel like a sleuth whenever I look for errors in the books.
3. • On a scale of 1-10, how weird are you? Why did you choose that number?
Eleven. I hate odd numbers. They're boring. Ahhh What? You said I am weird, If one chooses from1- 10, he's not weird.
Frankly, I do not remember any MacGyver episode anymore. In our country, we watched soap opera until cry.
Why would they steal a quarter or a dollar? The politicians rob the people blind by millions and they even lie
2. "What kind of car do you drive?"
A bus.
Oh yes, I even put them in the filing cabinet.
There are many ways. Want me to illustrate?
In the chair watching the movie.
6. If you were a Spice Girl, what would you call yourself?
Achuete.
7. How would you feel about doing small personal errands like dog-sitting or buying gifts for my 'lady friends?'" (All from the same interview.)
Keep the change?
Let me ask him.
No I discipline him with an iron hand that is with the iron in my hand. rolleyes.
Both
2. "What is a secret about you that no one knows?"
I am a cannibal. (hihiihiihihi)
The guy with a glass of wine.
No, I would fly.
A sock drawer, What will it be?
Ask them.
So I married an Axe murderer.
Everything that makes fun of people, children and animals. (rolleyes).
