Despair, preferably. Interviews have never been fun, nor productive for me.

Tears from repressed childhood.

Be there for them.

Tears of too many onions.

Not exactly terrifying, but... I have to interview a new hire candidate tomorrow for my first time ever.

I feel you man, that is some serious pressure.  Try to remember how many places you interviewed to get a job and remember you don't owe him anything. And you never know, it might go swell.


I am expected to train my replacement so I can move on to bigger and better things.  Or possibly be shitcanned after someone else knows how to do what I'm doing.

Either way I have been assigned to dig my own grave.  I don't even like my performance being measured, now I have to deal being measured by someone else's performance.

Well this is the most terrifying thing I've seen today. It's like the demented offspring of a mammoth, a Predator, and a serial rapist. Guess it's worth noting the link's to an hour and change long video -- important bit's at 13:12, if the link itself doesn't work right.

I've had exactly 4 in-person interviews in my life, and got job offers out of 3 of them :P

So I'm not even experienced with interviewing on the other side, though I guess I'm pretty good at it.

Remember to ask them what kind of animal they would be. Then whatever they say, react with "Really??! I see...." as you cast a worried, disapproving look over their resume.

This is the best idea.

Also make sure to have your riot shield ready for the more eager applicants. Getting mauled by tigers is NOT fun.

Yoink's new avatar unsettles me.  The face always looks like it's moving subtly if I'm not looking directly at it.

At first I thought it was the "anime edit" Arx made in the photo share thread.

He did think it was cool, so it's probably related.

I can't see his avatar right now though.

Edit: it's been raining relentlessly for two days now. I should buy a boat.

The job I applied for is running a criminal background check. I know there's nothing to find, but this is something that hasn't been done before, and it worries me a bit anyway.
