..

I have had lots of experience job hunting those days and I don't intend to come across one again in my life;

I was invited to this organization for interview, for the position of Accountant,
During the interview, I met a panel of 5; 3 accountants, and 2 HR. After much questions as if I was vying for the office of the president of the country.

The next day I got a call around 1pm, I was already dressed in my native attire, running around to make survive.

I got this call it was the HR, demanding that I should come to the office immediately for my appointment letter, on getting there, I meet the Deputy CEO It's well ooo

This woman on seeing me, looked disappointed, because I could see the Expression on her face. She started another interview immediately, this time asking me questions about, when the company started existing, how many directors has served, I should mention the branches world wide.

Of course, I didn't do well, so she ask me to go, Immediately I was leaving I heard her asking, didn't so..so person come for this interview??, I over heard the HR saying, the person in question didn't meet the cut off:

She asked that the young man be called back. That was how, I lost the job, fear women, I pray I don't see that olosho woman again.

Pardon me if I deviate a little to ask if it is normal for a marketing company to slash staff salaries to 100% if an employee did not meet a certain percent of target given. In such a case what can the staff do?

Note:
This is not part of the agreement during employment.

Are they not human beings?

See those Who announced Ayu's Suspension 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I might just correct him . But I’ll hire him.
As an HR expert I would now he might not be a great team player but he is not also same of same . Might even go on to give new results cos he thinks differently.

olamidedivotee:
Lmao, see the boldness. 😆

I feel like Hiring the guy and Firing him the day he will resume work.

Overconfidence has been one of the major reasons most people failed woefully in their academics and career.

I'm a content writer, check my signature for contact details.

Lol @ hiring and firing him on the same day.

You are right on the overconfidence part. One thing Nigerians need to know is sometimes the interviewer isn't after what you know but who you are. The interviewer may access candidates' personality not academic achievement. Being overconfident puts candidate off as unteachable, dictating and would not make a good team player.

I remember interviewing one guy while in Nigeria, dude was complimenting my dressing knowing fully well that I have big breasts and he kept staring at my cleavage.

He didn’t pass the first stage

What rubbish!

Erection-controlled freak, he should go and apply for porn jobs!

I once employed an employee…


With similar character. The dude ended up interviewing us the interviewers (I and my manager)

He got the job ( manager convinced me to employ him. I didn’t want wahala ) and we needed someone urgently at the time.

But funny thing is dude went on to be one of the best staffs we ever had.

Great guy Ralph… even though his over sabi might have cost him getting the job initially!

Staff, not STAFFS.

It’s not oversabi .. when you hiring a candidate you look at a few things .. how well does the Candidate know about the company which he demonstrated, confidence which he exhibited. For me I will hire him.

Lol funny question and answer

I invited this Lady for an interview only to start seducing me,droped her business card (she's into catering) on my table after the interview. I called her back 3hrs later to come for her documentation only to get to my office and I ask her to pick her business card and never step into the company again.

I hate rubbish

brain54:

I don’t think that’s quite possible though…

They must be some at least basic/minor form of interview maybe formal or informal.

You can’t just get someone on the street and say come and work for me.

Interview is just a way to know the person you would be working with potentially.

My 2 cents though!

you're right though. To at least get to know the person, that must happen actually.

😂😂😂😂 maddddd! The guy sounds like one guy in my area I hope he’s not the one

culf:

Right…

oneolajire:
HR jobs are overrated and useless, they just cash out on massive unemployment in the country.

Where was the HR role in the 70's and 80's when people graduate to get work almost immediately?

HR many times employ wrong set of people who they believe can answer general interview questions - those on the internet - against capable people who can actually do the job, especially, technical and engineering jobs.

Funny enough, people still get jobs in their companies without interviews, just because they know someone in those offices, yet HR will want to kill himself on new employees as if his company cannot sack him from his HR role.

Union Bank HR remain the best for me in terms of assessment. I pray I get there medical mail

There's nothing wrong with what the candidate did seeing that he wasn't rude nor disrespectful to you in anyway. Na the African mentality go make anybody think say dis guy do bad thing

One sided story is sweet..

I have employed loads of employees , ones that start work and leave work the following week , ones of following day , ones with pride , ones with " is there any tips aside salary " ones with " are you giving us lunch" , " transport fare" , ones with IOU " , ones with " can we get loan while we work " , can we go on leave at anytime"

Unfortunately for this employer, he/she/they just lost a rare gem. Employing people like this may seem like a wild gamble,but most times, such people always turn out to be the best.

my view exactly...you need dudes like this to balance out the lazies.

His advice will be a disaster to any job seeker he advices...cos he will be like: Be bold, infact be the boss over the boss...interview them before they interview you😁.

This was mine. Went into the interview all confident . There were 2 people to conduct the interview the owner and HR person. So I answered all the technical questions and then they asked what will I do differently in this job than my previous one. I replied, I don’t walk around with baggage from past relationships so when I left , I left on good terms and returned the engagement ring. ( all items , documents, keys etc) .
Apparently, the owner ( female) just got divorced and didn’t like the answer.
Well, I didn’t care much for them either.
