My boss tasked me with hiring my assistant. HR filtered most of them and I was left with three applicants. So I ran it the way I'd like to be hired which was skip the useless small talk and other painful BS and just bring the applicants around the shop and show them what I did. The first applicant seemed like his mother dressed him and reminded him to breath that morning. The second guy was pretty sharp but disinterested during the walk and talk. The third applicant immediatly stood out. He was excited and fascinated by our systems and kept asking technical questions - winner. Excellent co-worker until he moved on to greener pastures. All that wear your best suit and where do you see yourself in 5 years (best answer: prison) nonsense sounds like it was lifted from one of those cheesy 1950's self help shorts the MST3K crew routinely riffed.
