Great, just realised that one of my referees email addresses is wrong on all the resume's I have sent out.
On the upside, my interview today went quite well.
Started with a video, which was boring and half way through I started to get worried that they were going to ask questions about it afterwards and I wouldnt be able to tell one thing that was in it. Luckily, no such discussion occured.
Then a geography test:
Name the capital city of:
Vietnam
Austria
Argentina
New Zealand
France
Kenya
Spain
Fiji
Malaysia
Singapore
I got them all except Kenya, which the guy next to me told me. How many would you have known?
There were 4 more sections which were pretty tough:
eg List three things you would recommend a client see or do in Tahiti, India, Italy and The West Coast of America
eg Where would you find: Anaheim? Luxor? Rhodes? Jericho?
Then the interviewer came and spoke to us for about an 50 hours, I struggled to look like I was listening, but I think I had her fooled.
Then she asked us in turn various questions where we had to think of examples in our previous jobs where we had done certain things like:
Persuaded a client or commitee to agree with you in a decision making situation.
Gone above and beyond to meet a customer or clients needs.
Persevered with a project or task until you achieved the results or outcome you desired.
It was actually easier than I thought, and not that painful.
Maybe I'll take the job after all, sounds not so bad.
