An Interesting Situation
My blog has been dead for quite some time, so what better way to resurrect it than with one of the interesting things that seem to be such a common occurrence in my life?
On our 'interview skills' handout we got today for Civics:
"Questions you can ask in response to the interviewer's question 'Do you have anything you would like to ask us?' "
And one of those questions was "Would you like me to answer any other questions?"
Imagine the fiasco at the interview room.
"So, before we finish this interview, would you like to ask us anything?"
"Well, I was wondering if you had anything else you wanted to ask me."
"We just did. That's our last question: Would you like to ask us anything?"
"I know. So my question is: Do you have anything else to ask me?"
"Are you trying to be funny with us?"
"Hey, no way man, I honestly want to know."
"But we're giving you an opportunity to find out what you want to know about us!"
"Yeah, and what I want to find out from you is whether you have anything else to ask me!"
"Sir, this is a serious interview."
"I'm aware of that. And I'm being serious."
"By asking us whether we want to ask you anything?"
"Well, yeah."
"Out."
Of course, interviewers won't be THAT unprofessional. But it'd be interesting, wouldn't it?
