    I think I would marry this girl on the spot. Very cute!

    Would it be wrong to clarify the question?

    I work in banking and all you need to do is play golf with the right people, and buy your suits from the right store. Sell an illusion that your just like them and your golden. Education and intelligence are really not needed.

  4. ech2daezzay says:

    The whole process of interviewing is bullshit.

  5. Hilarious and ironic that she says one of her strengths is proofreading and then the word “strengths” is misspelled a second later on the text!!!

  6. This looks like an intro to a porno.

    OMG!!! DO NOT SAY PERFECTIONIST

    hmmm…drug dealer?

    Just Be yourself. if people don’t like you being yourself fuck em you don’t need em and it’s there lost.

  10. Wait, I saw her on another interview video. So did she not get the JOB? Why should I listen to this!

    -just playing-

  11. In this bad job market, should I let the people interviewing molest me? They usually ask me to suck cock.

    My father molests me all the time :-(

    rape.

    It would be the job were people like you don’t blow smoke up my ass and tell me that its only a 40 hour week when its 80. Or that when Mary or Pete are leaving early to go watch their kids play soccer that I have to pick up the slack and do their jobs while they get paid twice as much.

    Or chewing my ass out for putting a meal on my expense account while the Executives are driving around in BMW’s provided by the company.

    Or when paying for my own health benefits is considered a perk.

  13. BoomerNavy70 says:

    And while you are at it get that whiney voice off the videos that keeps going…Ammmmm! IMPRESSIVE ANSWER.

    She sounds like some hooker talking to a John. She could just as easily be saying…Ammmmm! IMPRESSIVE WALLET.

    If we had this woman’s voice in Iraq we could get the Terrorist to give up everything after listening to her for 10 minutes.

    Military Intelligence: “Okay, where are your colleagues?” (Que Voice) Terrorist after 5seconds. “There are 5000 of them over the next hill.”

    Here we go again…….I believe my thoughts on what I consider to be an ideal job is inline with most people, I want to enjoy my career and its rewards that will enhance my life/work balance. I have a real passion for this industry and am very comfortable with it being my ideal job/role/destiny/ blah blah blah…………………………..

  17. she looks like a waitress

  18. she looks very good. doesn`t matter what she says… ;-)

  19. It is interesting to see that HR managers in the USA ask the same stupid pseudo – psychological questions and get the same dull memorised answers like in germany… ;-) did she get the job and what is the point of such stupid standard questions?

    I hate the intro where you hear all those little soundbytes: It sounds so fake and is fake.

  23. exoticaguy69 says:

    I guess I could say I could do any thing that your current employees are doing now. Because I know for a fact their just a bunch of lazy bastards that got hired because they knew the right person.

  24. cleotisoy22 says:

    ..its always been a stupid thing to be interviewed and then be junk!!
    ..makes you a total discouraged! …oh men! what the hell

  25. @Schlandhaubitze I very much agree with you..all these videos I have been watching on interviewing are mostly a crock of shit, they are just saying what the interviewer “wants” to hear…I mean really, such a make shift “professional” like interview for someone applying for a simple administrative assistant position? aka: receptionist job? Not digging on it but really now, who WANTS to do this type of job forever & they are making it seem like some kind of corporate job…blah
