And also i think i can enter the Guiness book of world record for sending my resume to maximum number of ppl in such a short duration... and i shud also be awarded for changing 7 jobs in 7 years..! Another one for mabe having most number of relationships gone haywire ..... there are lots actually....and thats the only way i think i can ever be famous ...
However... as i add another 'offer letter' to the pile of offer letters from the past... the whole of my 8 years of working life flashes before my eyes... Aptech, NIIT ( education).. Army Public School, Convergys, Jet Airways, NIIT (KSB)..and now Edutech Dimensions..( i dont like the name....at all!!) I am not at all excited as i was when i got the rest... it no more feels like a sense of accomplishment. I am sick of the rounds of interviews and tests and all the stupid formalities around it...like filling up a zillion forms where they ask you about your blood group and most recent illness and all that crap around it.
But whenever i go for an interview with a 'I dont care a screw about your company' mind... i am pleasingly offerred the job ....very mysterious, i must say!... Maybe i am at my best when i am grumpy!! who knows!
this time too the same happened... and thank god almighty there were no written tests... so i met the general manager of the company directly ( who was by the way an astonishingly beautiful and graceful old lady with an even more beautiful smile!) I dont know but somehow that astounding lil smile never left her face even once during the half an hour interview i had with her.. and there was something very irritating about that smile...or maybe i was irritated by the questions... same ol' crappy questions...here are some i hate :
- How do u see urself 5 yrs frm now?
- tell me about the most important thing u learnt from the previous job
- oh... u seem to be changing jobs very often....( and believe it or not this comes after u tell them why u had to change so many jobs..)
- ok tell me... why our company?? why not xyz or abc??
(obviously because i havent yet recvd a call from them yet.../ obviously because they are smarter than u guys are, they dont want morons like me!!)
- Do you get stressed very often?
and the list can go on...
Makes me want to throw up... but coz i badly need a job i give very politically correct answers and sail through... ( i shud also be awarded for spinning maximum amount of crappy answers which are nothing but a bunch of polite lies!)
so after this exchange of cliche questions and lie infested answers... the lady smiles and offers me her hand to congratulate me for selection for the job!
Phew... oh god how many more to go???
