Jesus, this is why I started my own business to avoid this bullsh*t, why in the world I even considered working for someone else is beyond me.
time to rant-
HEre is the deal, I'm a real estate investor, and I went into the local AmeriQuest Office because a couple of my tenants are interested in buying the properties they currently rent. I went into AmeriQuest to see if I could get them qualified. After speaking with the manager and top sales rep for about an hour, I got a strong impression that they were interested in hiring me as a loan officer with the possibility of moving into a managerment position pretty soon. Expected starting salary is about 200K, moving up to about 600K+ when you run your own branch.
To make a long story longer, I have gone through 7 interviews, from human resources, district managers, and everything seemed to be going great. The district manager decided to have me interview with a different and higher volume branch.
After a couple more interviews, my final interview was with the "top sales associate" of this branch.
I've never been so offended in an interview in my life. This guy begins the interview with this-
"So you consider yourself a competitive person huh?"
"Sure"
"What kind of grades did you get in college?"
"Some A's, mostly B's, a few C's. I worked through college and wasnt able to dedicate my entire time to studying. But I'm very proud of my degree and what I accomplished"
"Already making excuses for poor performance huh? What kind of competitive person accepts B's and C's?
"Excuse me?"
That was 5 minutes into this interview. about 55 left to go.
Three weeks of phone calls, 8 interviews, $400 in new clothes, resume faxing, not to mention gas, tolls, parking money, and time away from my personal business, just to have some hothead sales associate grill me.
Un-f*ck-in-be-leave-able
LOL I'm supposed to find out if they are going to offer me the job. If I have to work shoulder to shoulder with this a$$h0l3, I dont know if I even want it
Mike
ps- sorry, I'm so pissed right now at myself I could puke. I'll get off the soap box now
