    Right I have an interview tomorrow. I'm all set except I need the eye of the tiger. I need the thing that will make me believe I am the one for the job.

    I read a thread earlier about possible questions that might be asked & I ended up in knots laughing at the responses.

    So I need responses now that will get all of the giggles out of me so I won't take into a fit if they ask me anything unusual or indeed usual, I'm a bit giggley in pressure situations.... & believe me this is pressure.

    I need for all of you to be funny & give me silly interview stories/ questions/ responses.

    They already have their minds made up based on the CV's and you are only there to entertain them and justify them taking a lazy day from work.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,689 ✭✭✭Vain


    100% of all cv's and answers giving in job interviews are all bullsh!t.

    That includes the answers that the interviewers give about the work place and job, complete bull usually :rolleyes:

    Best of luck in the interview and remember that they stretch the truth as well as you!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 431 ✭✭dny123456


    Just chant to yourself, "I am whatever you want me to be".... then all you need to figure out, is, what do they want you to be? For that, listen to their questions.


    Oh and by the way, I posted that other interview thread and have never been asked a question remotely like that in an interview. So don't worry.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,748 ✭✭✭tony1kenobi

    You might want to get a Doctor to look at those tits. Im no expert but Im sure bubbly tits could be dangerous.

    Having perky nipples will always throw off the interviewer so give them a squeeze/roll between thumb and forefinger before you go in. The male interviewer will not be able to concentrate and if its a female interviewer then you better hope she swings that way.

    No one else suggested these, things, but I like the way you think. I'm pretty sure you'll do well :-) ....

    Hope it went swimmingly.

    Don't bother going to the interview, you'll probably f*ck it up anyway


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 182 ✭✭magenta73


    let us know how you got on!:)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,593 ✭✭✭Sea Sharp


    If you want to 'stand out' from the crowd you should try threatening the interviewers with violence.

    Think about Barrack Obama and his positive never give up attitude.

    Then think of how much you want to nuke him for this

    Channel this hatred into determination and knock em dead at the interview! :pac:


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,339 ✭✭✭me-skywalker


    here it is:

    Risin' up, back on the street
    Did my time, took my chances
    Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet
    Just a man and his will to survive

    So many times, it happens too fast
    You change your passion for glory
    Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past
    You must fight just to keep them alive

    Chorus:
    It's the eye of the tiger, it's the cream of the fight
    Risin' up to the challenge of our rival
    And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night
    And he's watchin' us all in the eye of the tiger

    Face to face, out in the heat
    Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry
    They stack the odds 'til we take to the street
    For we kill with the skill to survive

    chorus

    Risin' up, straight to the top
    Have the guts, got the glory
    Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop
    Just a man and his will to survive

    chorus

    The eye of the tiger (repeats out)...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,104 ✭✭✭easyeason3


    Right well I just got back there from the interview & I think it went ok. I wore a top that could be pulled down or up depending on who was going to be interviewing me. As it turns out I had a male & female interviewing me so to be on the safe side I let one boob hang out :D

    Thankfully I didn't take into uncontrollable laughter because on the way there I nearly hit a cow that got out on the road, I think I might have clipped her with the bumper. So that kinda knocked the fun out of me.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,593 ✭✭✭Sea Sharp


    What was the competition like?

    Did you attempt to 'sabotage' the others?

    One guy is a solicitor & another was self employed as a builder/ property developer. I didn't ask them this, I overheard it. Stupid people thinking they have to bond with the person they are sitting beside even though they probably won't see them again.

    I sat there & stared at people while giving the odd twitch & muttering under my breath. I like to think it unnerved them a bit but it also kept them away from me & wishing me the 'best of luck'.

    I hate people who try to be too friendly.

    How am I a cold bitch because I don't entertain random conversation from strangers?
    It's called stranger danger. It's up there with the safe cross code, you can never be too safe :P
