lol what?
I was just reading an article on yahoo about what job recruiters look for.
“Many recruiters use meals as a screening tool. “I know a recruiter who passed over a candidate because of the way they cut their meat during a lunch interview,” says Varelas. (The candidate cut his meat all at once, not one piece at a time.) Juliet Boghossian, a behavioral food expert and columnist for Food-ology.com, teaches execs what they can learn by the way someone eats.”

….what? I cut all of my meat all at once, what’s wrong with that? What could a job interviewer possibly learn about me from how I cut my meat? I do it so I can enjoy my meal at once instead of having to stop and cut in between each bite…so that means I’m not worthy of a job?
Some also apparently send someone out to inspect cars (ie trash inside, maintenance, etc). Mine is clean inside but it has several dents, all from before I purchased it.
I don’t know, this article seems kind of unfair but whatever, if a person feels like I’m not the right person for their company because of the way I eat or what my car looks like, they most likely aren’t really a company I’d want to work for anyway. I’d rather work for someone who cares more about dedication, work ethic, and skills.
