Just had the worst pre-screening interview EVER. Why do they do this? Just phone you up and ask for 20 minutes of your time ON THE SPOT. This was for a position that I applied to at the end of JANUARY. That's over a month that I have given it no thought!
So I flubbed a couple of the questions I think...I've never done well in phone interviews and they make me really uncomfortable. Talking to someone's face is so much easier. Not to mention the fact that I haven't really been in interview mode for a few weeks now, my answers to her questions were pretty weak...And to top it off my cell phone died as she was leaving me her contact info. How embarassing! The position was actually pretty interesting to me too and I think would be a good fit. Unfortunately I know that this will be the thing that stops me from getting a full on interview. #$^%#.
Ah well, at least the fact that someone is interested in my resume/cover letter must mean that I'm doing something right.
Ahh sorry to hear that! Why not ask to call them back in five minutes?
