was there not a b3tan who did quality testing stuff
for Rockstar North... I'm sure that there was...

Mrs. UnderCover's brother works for a games company, they just released Vin Diesel's Wheelman.

Least said about that the better I think.

You probably have to have a degree
:-(
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 15:50, archived)

... I think you'd probably be
competing against people who have degrees for the position -- but you should be allowed to do whatever it is you want so I'm sure that would come across in the interview...
( Prof UnderCover belligerence aroused by a real or supposed wrong, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 15:52, archived)

I interview well
which is shit in some ways.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 15:55, archived)

How is being good in an interview bad?
I'd love to have charisma to go with my education and experience.
( St.Minimus has calmed down, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:02, archived)

Getting snapped at for interviewing for a job and getting it (and then turning it down)
when I decided during the interview that I didn't want the job. That was fun.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:05, archived)

I think i'd take that rather than not being good at interviews

( my other username is a porsche , posting shit pictures so you don't have to, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:11, archived)

I suppose
I just don't like being shouted at, I guess
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:13, archived)

They shouted at you because you didn't want the job?
Bloody hell, lucky escape I think on that one if they are like that!

'wasting my fucking time'
I believe was one choice phrase. No wonder I didn't want to work for her.

Plus I only found out the salary at interview, and it was the same as I was on at the time.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:15, archived)

At the moment I would gladly move for the same salary.
But every time I go for an interview they make silly salary offers you would expect to turn down as an intern, why would they expect an experienced person work for it?
( St.Minimus has calmed down, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:22, archived)

Because eventually some poor person
who needs the money will say 'fuck it, ok then'.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:23, archived)

That's why I'm on such a shitty salary here
I was absolutely desperate for work, took the job on low salary because I hadn't graduated at that point with promises for big pay rises when I graduate etc.

I've been here a couple of years now (already having 3 years industry experience), still haven't even reached the top end of the starting salary and the other programmer earns over double what I do.
( St.Minimus has calmed down, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:29, archived)

welcome to my world.
The next person up from me is on over double what I am, and I do a lot of his stuff anyway.
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:33, archived)

He's not over me though
We both do the same job
( St.Minimus has calmed down, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:35, archived)

People being annoyed because you're good and they can't have you isn't that bad either.
This reminds me, I need to tell Derby hospital I don't need their interview any more.
( my other username is a porsche , posting shit pictures so you don't have to, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:16, archived)

High five for not needing it
onwards and upwards?
( Captain Wow currently being a cunt in Infamous, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:17, archived)

Had a better offer.
Plus, their HR department wrongly said I was unqualified and then took about 2 months to get back to me.
( my other username is a porsche , posting shit pictures so you don't have to, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:20, archived)

There's ghosts at Derby hospital you know!
They called an exorcist and everything.
( St.Minimus has calmed down, Tue 14 Apr 2009, 16:20, archived)

Bugger, now I'm reconsidering.
I think I'd have been at the fancy new PFI one though, which probably doesn't have ghosts yet
