Hilarous!! I just went to an "interview" for a part-time job, while I get my CAbi business moving forward as well as my business at the salon, at Department Store in their cosmetic department. The "interview" was scheduled for 11:00 a.m....well, I arrived promptly 5 minutes before (filled out the application online) and was escorted into a room where there were already 2 other people waiting. Is this a group interview, I thought? I almost felt like I was trying out for the Apprentice again but without waking up at 5 a.m. and standing in line for 4 hours.
The "interviewer" came in and began to explain the process. We were to tell her our name, one word that describes us, and our availability. Hmmmm...easy enough. When we were done with that, the interviewer said that she had already printed out our applications and she was now going to go in the other room to see if she had any matches for us. So we wait...called out one by one and alas, I got a "second interview" and was out of there at 11:15 a.m. sharp.
Okay, where they "screening" me in a way that was politicially correct? It sure felt like it...guess I still look okay in my old age.
:-)
Went to the second "interview" where they proceeded to interview me and another girl on the department sales floor...asked a few questions and then the hiring manager took me back in her office and told me she had a part-time poistion open with one of her counters. She also then said that because I have management background, I may be more interested in a managers position and referred me over to another store. Now I have an "interview" today (yes on Sunday, my only none makeup day) with this store. Argh...very interesting process. Or quite entertaining. I guess I am just used to being grilled for my executive positions that I apply for, so this was cake!
