as an engine mechanic, is this sort of game play normal in office jobs?
When I've been taken on as an apprentice, its an interview to see my competency...where i stand i guess and what i need to learn. Questions like 'whats the hardest thing' and 'how do you handle grumpy people' are pretty normal.
Being hired on full-time, and having to hire another mechanic myself, The questions are pretty cut and dry. Can you stick to a schedule, describe a 4 cycle engine, what a cam profile, give me a reference.
Once weve hired someone new, we generally know if shes going to make it or not. we all chip in to help if theyre struggling, but we dont play weird games.
- learc83 8y agoFor some reason people are deathly afraid of hiring the wrong person. So afraid that they'd rather pass on 100 good candidates to avoid hiring one person who doesn't fit. It's particularly bad for programming jobs where they expect candidates to go through up to a half dozen separate interviews. The whole process is just completely broken.
