braine: when such question arises in an interview.. simply change the tone of your voice, look him or her straight into the eyes, and say,: " Trust is an important ingredient in any organization, and for that reason I humbly trust the management of this prestigious firm to pay me a fair and deserving salary!!!" 3 Likes |

Mine was in a telecoms company. I mentioned a figure twice of what the company pays for that position, but they simply told me what they pay and asked if I could manage that. I said yes and I got the job. 1 Like 1 Share |

53cur3m0d3: Not really. Just a snippet, like a demodemo it was buggy as hell. I did only a small map but the code was poor. Couldnt handle collision detection, sound was awful, kept crashing. Ive moved to mobile stuff now, working on android apps. I hate java but hey, mobile is where the money is at. |

Mine was with one of d big 4 audit firm. I realized I wouldn't be called for the next stage when my interviewer asked "did u think it is ur grade that will work for us here?". Regret mail landed after a week. |

I want to expatiate more on the guy that went for an interview with radio station. First, some people here are replacing numbers to mean salary. Well, from my little experience, what I believe can be used interchangeably with salary, should be figures and not numbers. And I also believe that, when one is being asked a question, that seems confusing, the interviewee should humbly ask the interviewer, for proper clarification or to say 'I don't understand what you are asking Ma or Sir', afterall, an interview is a two-way communication process. |

chinkichun: It's wrong because it clearly says phone NUMBERS not phone alphabet.......0 is a number while 0 (oh) is an alphabet, hence the latter shouldn't be used in this case. |

ROSYL: Let's try to learn from each other just as the guy as pointed out. Remember that English as a language has its origin. For the sake of learning, let's give other the chance to proof their point. Check out the link in the previous post of chinkinchun. Read it for learning process and not for criticism. Thanks. 1 Like |

ROSYL: No offence, but if that's your only reason, you're wrong. I already cited higher authorities that said otherwise. English is tricky you know, so I'll stick with what the alphabetic method till I'm convinced beyond doubt it's wrong. Thanks. |

chinkichun: actually the correct way of pronouncing it is zero and not O,the only glitch is he should have included the +234 then start wit 80,thats if what they needed was the phone number. |
