Permie interview

Re the biscuit question.

"I definately wouldn't be a chocolate biscuit as these attract VAT unless you can prove they are actually a cake."

One issue is I have a plan B, and I'm not sure how having a permie job will sit with that.

The typical contract of employment probably ensures that your employer will have all intellectual property rights to anything you develop in-side and out-side of work.

How do you remember these things?!!!!


Great to have you back though hun

Some images just stick in your mind for some reason

It's good to be back - albeit only for a short time until I have to turn up at work again.

HR people have to do something. If all they want to do is ask inane questions then there's no harm in that.

It's interesting because when you have too many people on board a project, some folk inevitably like to stick their oar in and 'do' something even though it would be better if they actually sat back and did nothing. I'm thinking of some projects where, for example, there have been too many business analysts or project managers who have only managed to cock things up and have been no help whatsoever.

Developers usually have no problem doing nothing, and testers never really do much anyway. It's the busy body manager-types who cause all the problems.

i don't know developers doing nothing can cause all manner of problems when you realise there is no code at the end of a project

BS, apart from "tell us something unusual about yourself" .

I had that once on a worldwide conference call when I was home and having to introduce myself to 20 team members.

I piped up with 'I am ranked in the top 100 at foosball in the UK and i am presently taking this conference call naked'

'Ewwwwwww' came an audible reply from some American lass.

That went really well, and I've been invited to a face to face interview next week. I have a horrible feeling I'm going to get this job, and then where does that leave me? Hmmm.

Employable.
