Not your blog.

Was it a group interview? I would die.

>>7840100
but we'll gladly listen to any thoughts and events OP wishes to share with us!

Only nice after you murdered them, right?

join the navy, you'll learn to love the niceties of living on a boat with 6000 people~

>So I had that interview today
yet another one?
How come you keep screwing it up?
are you a minority?

>>7840100
Hey buddy, I've been closely following this anon's interview saga and I would like to know how it ends.

Interviewers are always the nicest people I've ever met. But they're also the only people I really talk to outside of family and the people at cash registers.

>>7840110

Not OP, but what does that have to do with anything? You aren't even logical. Jobs are tight.

I'm looking for a job too
I got desperate and started making shit up about work experience (Ive never worked a day in my life) but nothings changed so far. it's frustrating
Maybe they don't believe me?

I would probably walk out if I saw 30 other people interviewing

Sorry was getting a drink.

Yes, it was in the middle of some giant Hall, it was completely open and public too. I did feel really awkward, when I walked in this man just told me to have a seat and wait to be called. I was sat on this chair sweating and super nervous for like 30 minutes until a lady shouted my name, I then went over and sat down at a table with 3 other people. I found it really creepy how they were just sitting there staring at me, they were waiting for me to introduce myself and I just sat there silent for like 2 minutes before the lady made a joke.

>>7840110
I've had 3 interviews in the last 11 months, I don't think I'll ever find a job....

>>7840143
I once applied for a under the table job that paid 400 USD a month (45 hours a week)
they called me back and told me to go the group interview
when I got there there were at least 200 people. Not joking. there was a park in front of the office, it was full of people waiting to get interview. most of them were in their 40s and had college degrees and decades of work experience

I said fuck it and went home

>>7840143
I felt like it, but I had already gone inside the Hall and there was a man stood at the door letting people in. It would have been super awkward to do a 360 and ask him to let me back out.

Yeah, perhaps op should've never left school without a PhD or something

>>7840123
They're usually pretty good judges of character ad can tell when you're lying, they always have this look where their eyes just bore right through your soul. No word of a lie, even if you're not socially awkward and are a good candidate, that look is terrifying.

>>7840177
Only if you're scared of pointless things.

>>7840163
what kind of job? it could be "11 interviews in the last 3 days"

>>7840165
No way would I work 45 hours a week for 400 USD, heck, I wouldn't work 45 hours a week for 4000 USD a month

That's nice but this isn't your blog. Take this shit there.

>>7840188
I understand, I could apply for a lot more vacancies but I couldn't do a job where I'm in contact with lots of people like customer service or sales..

I spent most of yesterday convincing myself that I had to take matters into my own hands instead of waiting to get some kind of help with my social anxiety, and a few more hours this morning to gather up the courage to actually go and ask at a place I heard they needed someone ....Only to be told that they already hired someone.

I get paid to wank.

Interviews are hell, especially when you know there is competition.
Don't let a large group of people intimidate you.
Not all of them are always there for the same job. Most times there in the same boat as you, their are looking for a job after all.

I've been interviewed and given interviews numerous times.
Even people that 'look' as if their perfect for the job will FUBAR the interview.
If you're worried about lack of experience then go to school or volunteer.

Squiddy-kun, why don't you want to talk to me?

You guys should stop taking shitty courses like art or language.
NEET by choice by here currently, I have rejected 2job offers because of shitty pay.
I never never have problem getting a job. Just keep going to as many interview as you can. My success rate is about 1/3 in.

Steam's shit and I don't use any IM or anything, I don't even use IRC any more.

>>7840229
I know that feel.

>>7840280
I know it's shit, I only used it to be able to talk to you~

it's impossible to compete with people who are twice my age, have college degrees, and extensive work experience

it just seems like a waste of time to even show up at the interview

>>7840309
Every time I log in.
Gets pretty annoying.

>>7840345

Add my Facebook mate.

>>7840345
Different guy here, but you can just turn that off in the options. Might take a confirmation email, but it should take either 3 or 30 seconds depending.

>>7840353
Okay thanks.
>>7840350
I'll assume you're making a joke at my expense.

>>7840361

I honestly want to be your friend.
I hate to think about you being lonely.

>>7840342

Age and experience are not always a plus, there really is a thing as 'overqualified'.
A lot of jobs that a company doesn't fill in-house are usually entry level positions (unless their look for some with a specific degree/skill).

>>7840374
Wait, are you >>7840243 ?

>>7840390

No, but I would also enjoy speaking with you.

>>7840409
I don't believe you.
If you've got Steam you can add me if you want though.
Name is in the email field.

>>7840395
"overqualified" is just a excuse they use when they don't want to hire you because they want to give the job to a friend or a relative.

a person who has work experience will fuck up less than a person who doesn't.

there really is no such thing as "overqualified"

>>7840425

I don't play games, therefore I do not have a Steam.

>>7840439
Neither do I, I just downloaded it to speak to some people.
I don't use any of those social media websites, instant messaging websites or IRC.

>>7840460

I see, maybe I'll download Steam one day and have a nice chat with you.

>>7840428
There is, I give you an example.

A recent applicant for a security position at a company I work for had 10+ years as a police officer along with military, first aid training, and integration experience.
while this person seems like the perfect person for the job it was decided that he may be intimidating to the customers and was deemed overqualified.

>>7840508

Although, I do fear that you may not like me.

>>7840489

On an unrelated note, I have to go into college for induction day tomorrow.
