advice to job seekers...part II

(note to readers: i actually am a rational, fairly nice person...so i'm not jumping to quick judgments based on only superficial reasons. so no hate mail.)

1. do not make fun of my college alma mater within the first ten minutes. and do not tell me that they "just give out A's at that school."

2. do get slightly dressed up for an interview. and no, flip flops, a jean skirt, and a t-shirt is not dressed up.

3. do not confess that you lied on your resume and that you really don't know how to do that. i'm interviewing you, ya dumb bastard.

4. do arrive on time. that means that you don't arrive 20 minutes late and then don't even apologize.

5. do not wear shiny pink eyeshadow with glitter, a giant hair clip with butterfly wings, and a big heart necklace.

6. do shower before an interview. please.

7. do not keep your sunglasses perched on the top of your head for the whole interview. we're not best friends sitting at starbucks and chatting about boys.

thank you for listening.
