My face is still there, that was just my clothes. ;]

Yeah, I think a mask. XD Unless you frequently wear jackets, pants or shoes on your face.

Soooooooo I had my job interview! It's weird; I wasn't too nervous and thought I "totally had this," but then it comes face to face and I was a babbling fool. XD I mean, I thought I did alright, but I was also a bit weird, so I don't know. XD I hope I get a call back! Awkward, the first thing he asks me is, "So have you been here before?" and I was like, "Actually...no." XD Probs not the right thing to say. But I wasn't going to lie. xP I couldn't even if I wanted to!

I'm not a fan of job interviews, and I've had my share of bad ones. I remember being interviewed by four people, one after another, and the only reason why they didn't hire me was because too many of my responses were "one-worded." That was their only reasoning. Huh? I'm not the kind that likes to ramble on and dump filler everywhere, but if they really wanted to hear a whole life story and forget about getting back to work that afternoon, hey, I could accommodate! Or, you know, I could just do the sensible thing and touch base on the most important points and if they wanted more detail, hey, just ask! I haven't quite gotten telepathy down-packed yet, so I can't really tell just by reading your mind that you wanted more info on that stuff that's on my resume!

There's other things about job postings that annoy me:

"3-5 of experience: Entry Level Position." - Wut.

"Needs 10+ years of <program> experience." - Said <program> has only been around for seven.

"Local candidates only." - You know, it's possible for people to relocate and a job offer is a good reason to!

The BIG thing that annoys me the most about searching for jobs is that on company websites, EVERYTHING that pops up is either for a manager position or a director position. Where the heck is everything else!? Your company that employs 10,000 people can't possibly be all managers and directors.

Really, job searching/interviewing is an insanity circus.

One-worded? Really? xD So even if they were reasonable responses that gave them a good insight, and were entirely appropriate...it wasn't good enough because it was just one word? Whaaaaaaat? That's just rude. Come on, guys. -_-

OH MY GOSH I KNOW RIGHT. It's pretty much pointless to go on job searching websites nowadays because that's all you'll find! I've seen so many of those. The experience one really annoys me. HOW could I have had experience if EVERYONE is asking for someone who HAS SOME?!?!? Bit of a loophole there!
