Interview went...okay???


Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
It wasn't spectacular but it wasn't a disaster.

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
I'll know by the end of next week if they'll go forward with a second interview for me or if they'll be like "nope lolbye."

Hire Sora, company!!!


Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Which, tbh, would not be super heartbroken if the latter were the case, although it would simplify things.

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
I'm tentatively excited about the position and responsibilities (NO SALES METRICS FOR ME, STABLE SCHEDULE), but the company is apparently garbage.

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
It's ranked lower than McDonalds on Glassdoor.

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
In my position I might be able to escape some of the bullshit, and the dress code has lightened up slightly since the time that a lot of the reviews were posted (I READ ALL 850+ OF THEM BECAUSE IT WAS A TRAINWRECK), but......egh.

BₒₒₘBₒₒₘDₒₗₗₐᵣ
Oh shit, I forgot that was today. Glad to see it went okay.

BₒₒₘBₒₒₘDₒₗₗₐᵣ
And that it's potentially not as bad as the reviews you were reading to me sounded.

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Yeah, plus it's a new location, so maybe a fresh start will help?

BₒₒₘBₒₒₘDₒₗₗₐᵣ
Ooh, even better.

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Though there were definitely a few reviews that were like "the first few months were okay and then everything exploded."

BₒₒₘBₒₒₘDₒₗₗₐᵣ
Explosions are what we/you specialize in!

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
I don't look forward to needing to buy a whole new wardrobe (and I'm hesitant to do it at VM due to not only pricing but also because of how the company apparently treats employee purchases), but that's potentially a thing with other positions.

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
And at least I'd be going into things with eyes wide open (or as wide as I can open my Asian eyes) and potentially an exit plan.

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
BₒₒₘBₒₒₘDₒₗₗₐᵣ
: Okay, but there are good explosions and bad explosions.

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Good explosions are the ones that hit the bad guys.

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Bad explosions are the ones that hit you.

BₒₒₘBₒₒₘDₒₗₗₐᵣ
Just remember where you put the remote bombs and you'll be fine.

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Hopefully not by my water that I can't even have in the stock room.

overlord
ahh, best of luck, even with the potential for explosions!

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
THANK

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
Yeah, I'm thinking it could at least look good on my resume.

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
And I'd learn a little more about merchandising too.

Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
I'd be responsible for a lot more than at HT, both in terms of physical scope and in terms of tasks.
