no....would you mind explaining with some examples of their bad atrocious attitude?????well give some examples of the interview like how they mocked...insulted you???Originally posted by Jerina:Went for an interview for internship with a certain PR company who thought it was so great.
The interviewer was arrogant & has a superior attitude- the internship only pays peanuts & she interviewed me as though she's gonna give me a 100k per month job or smth. Tryg to look for my weak points and shootg me down. What the hell,man.
Nearly rolled my eyes at her.
Any of you had experiences with such interviewers before? -
Always remember, while the interviewer is assessing you, you are likewise assessing the interviewer.
That will give you an idea of the office culture and how you will be treated should you be offered a position at that company.
Still, be fully aware that you are sitting on the candidate's side of the table. Continue to smile and present yourself well, even if your ego is at stake. Interviewers in some PR firms enjoy goading candidates just to see if they lose their temper. -
Mwahahahha. I believe he made some sense. My interviewer was old, with too much concealer ard her eyes and has age spots all over her face. And look at how arrogant and condescendg she was to me.Originally posted by #$%^&*:I didnt want to say this, but I believe your interviewer was probably subconsciously afraid of you usurping her position, since you are a young and pretty young lady. She was afraid and jealous. It would be a different story if the interviewer was male.
Next time, see if your interviewer is a male or female. If it's a female, before going in, you go toilet first, to mess up your hair and ruin your makeup. Try to look slightly ugly. Remember, the key is being un-threatening. If the interviewer is a male, remember to prune yourself up, and after you go in, cross your legs when you speak to him. Smile and gaze into his eyes.
This is common sense really.
So, gals, if your interviewer is female, yeah, wear conservative clothes, minimal makeup. If it's a man, dress up more and smile more.

My interviewer (who is old with age spots all over her face,but anyway) was condescending- period. I told her abt my course in NUS and she was doubtg whatever info I told her. Like,hello? I'm the student, I should know.Originally posted by gohkatkat:no....would you mind explaining with some examples of their bad atrocious attitude?????well give some examples of the interview like how they mocked...insulted you???
She asked me, 'So, what can you contribute to our company?' And I said, I can help the PR ppl with their work and lighten their workload throughout the internship.
She replied in that b*tchy,know-it-all voice, 'No! The answer I'm lookg for is that you are a fast learner, have attention to detail and can follow instructions well.'
I was,like, whateverrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
She was questiong ALOT of things and was very,very condescendg & disbelieving. Never met interviewers who are so condescendg before, she's like a shock. -

The interviewer belong to typical leader style. They want to employ kar kia to follow instructions faithfully and not questioning. They want YOU to be their hands to do the dirty work while she use her mouth to tink of new ideas and leave the implementation details to you. And guess wat? She gets higher pay than you. So as you can see, use mouth earn more money than use hands
