My interview today and my hair

Interesting interview today to say the least...VERY quirky company...

Anyway they didn't give out their address (not even on their website) til the morning of the interview.

AND there is ONE phone number for the whole company and they refused to give out any emails

And not that I'm thrilled about the job, but etiquette is to send a Thank you for their time and interview.  Lately I been sending them via email but I used to go Old School and send them snail mail.

Should I do Snail Mail?  Seems crazy. The CEO said to  "what do you think if I told you I don't use the internet?"  He didn't say he DIDN'T he just wanted to know my response....oooooh I could tell you some REALLY weird stuff that happened this morning

Plus I had a ficcare clip (did not know that was what they were called) and wore that today.  Hair looked pretty darn good...so thank you for everyone's response

Well the first thing while I was in the waiting room, was they gave ame this xerox copy of a blog - where nothing but the responses were b*tch'ng about the company - like totally ripping into it

Another is they refused to introduce themselves and give out their names...they said no one had titles there and names were too formal

That is so bizarre!!  Why wouldn't you tell someone your name?!  I can understand the title thing (kind of), but how strange.

We use the internet so much in my field, we do a lot of research online and communicate with our clients and other regional offices that way.

WTF!!!!

Sounds like a bunch of freaky people!

Would you take the job if they offered it to you?

I applied for an analyst internship at All Star Directories before they were acquired.  My interview was in the middle of summer, I had just had throat surgery, so I wasn't feeling so hot.  Needless to say, I still put on a skirt suit and went in there and thought I would totally nail it.

Some total grunge kid ( messy long hair, holes in his jeans, piercings on his face) was sitting at the front desk and there were moving boxes everywhere.  He told me to have a seat and the accountant came out to interview me in a bathing suit!!!

The salary potential would have to be huge to get my azz out of bed in time for a 5am interview.

I think it sounds kind of intriguing. I would guess that it is a test to see how well you handle situations without a lot of information and having odd work hours. It would kill me though no knowing who they are. Too bad you couldn't tell them you could answer their questions, but then you'd have to kill them.


What's black & white and green all over? Me in these shoes and everyone who sees them!!

That sounds a lot like an experience KRoseToes had that I remembered reading about in her blog... I wonder if it's the same company?  Here's the link to her blog entry:  http://tinyurl.com/4ojwgy
