While conducting job interviews is invariably a time consuming exercise, what employers learn about the candidate is quite enlightening say findings of a recent poll developed by Accountemps, a specialized staffing service for temporary accounting, finance, and bookkeeping professionals. According to the survey, executives were asked to describe some of the most unusual pitches given by job seekers explaining why they were the best candidate for the job. Notable responses to this question include:
- an allergy to unemployment;
- having applied for a position three times,
- the job seeker considered it was only fair that he got the position;
- while the candidate had no relevant experience, his friend did;
and leaving the best for last, one person brought his mother to the job interview and proceeded to let her do all the talking.
What is the funny stuff you hear?
