PhilosipherStoned Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I've had no interviews, but to be fair I get to skip the interview stage most of the time anyway. I better get this temp position. They told me to 'be ready' basically.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My compassion and ability to empathize I remember once I had an interview and I had my answer for, "What is your greatest weakness" all prepped in my head. Then I got thrown through a loop when they asked me to say my greatest weakness in one word. Totally flubbed it, couldn't think of anything, and just looked like a dumb-ass. I didn't get that job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prepped for those dumb questions .... the only question that i prepped for that was asked was .... why do you wanna work here? Definitely crushed that .... on the second interview they asked me to describe a client, their problem, and how I fixed it. I think my answer was more than they were looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont really know what will happen. I hope I get one of them. I really want the one for the first interview though. I think I did the best in that one. The second was really awkward because it was 3 people and everytime I answered, they had to furiously write down my answers before they could ask another one. So I was like .... should I make conversation or let y'all summarize the paragraph I just gave you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope you got one of the jobs! Personally I usually get a gut feeling after interviews as to whether or not I got it. There's only been one time that I thought I sucked at an interview but ended up getting a call-back somehow (probably because it was for a shitty job that I decided mid-interview I didn't really want).

Well the second one asked to see my actual bachelor's degree diploma. It occurred to me to put it in the decorative little folder thing they give you when you graduate but it was raining and I didnt want to mess it up so I left it in the Fedex folder it came in and the lady was like .... UH WHERE IS THE CASE?! >.> I was also like 30 mins early and they were on lunch so I guess they felt rushed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also I feel like the universe was testing me before I went into the first one. There was this lady outside trying to flag people down and everybody was kinda going around her so when she flagged me down I thought .... oh she must want money but no she was trying to get someone to help her over the slick part of the side walk to her car. So I helped her . Then as Im waiting for the man to come escort me up to the actual interview, this little baby just wanders out of a cubicle so Im talking to her, playing with her, then she just sprints for the door and I was like ... oh shit ... so I ran after her and grabbed her coat just as she got to the door. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilosipherStoned Posted March 8, 2019 Share Posted March 8, 2019 I'm supposed to call this other guy back..from the email I got..weird thing is it's for the same position, but I bet it's another outside 'staffing company' anyway.. The actual company is supposed to have my application already.. but whatever. They always seem to use 3rd party bullshit for their warehouse here.

I dont know about your warehouse, but I know the Nike Warehouse here has 3 different temp agencies that staff their entire operation. The only actual Nike employees are upper management. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
