| well it depends on the industry too. I work at Lehman in the Emerging Markets dept. to get in here you have to go through 4 rounds of interviews with different peoplel. My 3rd round was the worst I must tell you, I met with 3 MD's at the same time and they asked me like some guy purchases an item an receives no change. Before the purchase, he had only a $5 bill, two $10 bills, and a $20 bill. How many distinct possibilities are there for the total amount of his purchase?.. and they would stare at me waiting for an answer. They'd say ok you got 10 seconds kiddo..go..! I wanted to reach over the desk and destroy them!!! :disbelief hehheh |

Im not bored at all. I actually have a load of work and I really shouldn't be on here but I guess that is why they call it TranceADDICT cuz I seem to be addicted to this board :p
I am going to the gym across the hall for an hour today at lunch since I shouldnt really be using my car much till I get it fixed...I am literally not going to go anywhere except home and work till later this weekend after I get paid. |

Another great interview today....this is getting so complicated, but I am counting my lucky stars that sooo many people have called me...as comparision to no choices at all.
an annoying thing tho, the job that I dont really want, but accepted me for the position, I told them I wanted a few days to think it over like FIVE times and yet they keep calling me everyday saying "cant wait to see you monday." UM HELLO i haven't even said YES yet!!! NOR have I given them monday as a start date. :rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes: |
