The "What Are You Doing This Moment" Thread

[False Joe]

Junkie.

Was waiting for that one.
Feeling abit better today actually. It's kinda worrying. It's giving me like... hope and shit, that I might be able to actually eat tomorrow, instead of living on water and chicken soup and boiled eggs.

Canceling my day due to the weather.

Plan B:
Doritos + Laying in bed watching Alien movies + spinning new Katharsis and Molested reissue + running out to buy Flight 666 + roast beef sub + working out + House re-runs

I love plan B days.

It's hard to resist the urge at this point to just obsessively read up on the company

I know what you mean.

My Lockheed Martin interview is tomorrow. I'm at my grandparents' house in Maryland since they live about 6-7 miles from the interview site, which is in Bethesda.

It's hard to resist the urge at this point to just obsessively read up on the company or on random programming crap they might ask about, and just accept that I won't know the answer to everything they might ask. Can't wait to have this done with, regardless of the outcome - it feels like studying for the biggest final exam of my life.

Research as much as you can. Be honest with your answers. If you don't know the answer to something, just say you don't know. if it's some sort of behavior-based question and you don't know the answer/didn't have an experience like that, say you don't know, but here's how you would go about it, etc.

There are some links out there for the 10 hardest interview questions or whatever. Read up on those as well.

They probably do the hair drug testing too, so I hope you haven't smoked pot in the past 30 days

Just find a hair from someone else and put it on your head.

FYP and it wouldn't work

 

[False Joe]

Shave your head.

 

[The Ozzman]

That would look suspicious and they would probably reject him on the spot.

 

[False Joe]

So people with shaven heads are suspicious now?

"He must've heard about our special all over hair drug test"

 

[The Ozzman]

Well, they'd just take it from somewhere else. If you shave your entire body, you could claim you're a swimmer but they'd probably just tell you to get out

Thanks for the link - it actually hadn't occurred to me to study up on those kinds of questions. I'm practicing my answers to those atm. Oh, and pot's not going to be an issue, unless the second-hand smoke that blew by me at the Deathfest is somehow still in my system.

 

[The Ozzman]

I hate interviews in general because the majority of questions are stupid and open-ended.

Also: Have extra copies of your resume handy

Yup, got it covered. Thanks.

running out to buy Flight 666

Good plan. Did you see it in theater?

Working on a resume. It seems kind of pointless since I haven't really done much.

Thanks. I'd found some template high school resumes, but they were for people who were members of every fucking club.

 

[The Ozzman]

There are tons of examples out there. Just tailor it to what you think people would want to see dependent upon the job for which you're looking
