Don't like phone interviews cos' it doesn't make a difference then whether I wear a short skirt or not

Chico, what time is it? -
I promise you that every phone interview you have had with a bloke you have been wearing a very short skirt and a low cut top, you may even have done the interview in your sexiest underwear.

I've done several phone interviews this week (as interviewer) - If only people would realise how important it is to sound confident and, at the same time, not to fill in the gaps with waffle. Don't wander off down blind alleys - I'm not in the least bit interested in how some team got on in some kind of ball game somewhere.
On the other hand, when it turns out we have a mutual acquaintance .........Comment

I fail 90% of interviews, anywhere, although I can get an interview at nearly any company in the UK. Getting interviews is easy if you have a good CV. However, I usually only get the job if there is a good reason why they should pick me. Like BB, I am in a buyer's market and it turns into a beauty competition the greater the supply of candidates.Originally posted by BlasterBatesFail most interviews actually, then again the interviews I attended, they failed virtually everybody who turned up, readvertised several times and took several months to find the "right person".
Sometimes I passed the written test and failed the verbal test, sometimes I passed the verbal test and failed the written test...sometimes passed both but got pipped by a "better" candidate.
Confidence doesn't help when faced with a battery of trick questions, either you can annswer them or you can't.
The only "positive" thing I've found is that I'm put forward for 90% of the roles I apply for, but then the agent seems to be desparate to find somebody who can pass the tests.

They should all do the decent thing and send us the pictures we want to see.
