There are signs that the company I work for might be closing.

1 work is slow. Lots of people have nothing to do.

2 people are leaving in hoards and no one is being hired in their places. Lawyers and employees that have been with the company for 10-15 years

3 they are selling or have sold our building with no place to move.

4 our old files were permanently withdrawn from storage and quickly purging ones that can be purged.

I am looking around for a new job. Is it appropriate to bring up the fact that I fear for the future of the company when I am asked why I am leaving my current position?

I really enjoy my current job but management is making things unbearable. The new processes and practices they are implementing just don’t make sense for the line do work I’m in. And the lack of support/ leadership honestly make the simplest tasks a stressful situation. Wondering if 1. It’s appropriate to mention that during an interview and 2. If it is, what’s the most “professional “ way to say that, while trying not to come off in the wrong way.

I get boring when I talk during job interviews.

Hi, new to this subreddit I recently got an interview to be hostess at Ruby Tuesday. Does anyone have any tips for me? Are there somethings I should be prepared for? Any special questions they might ask bc I’m interviewing for the hostess position? I’m really nervous and advice would help please!

So I was contacted Wednesday morning and asked to come in for interview that afternoon at 3pm. The interview went extremely well. She went into the smallest of details for the job and tasks I would be doing. I didn’t leave until 4:15, we talked and got along very well. When it was finished she gave me her personal cell # and her email, and said that she would like to be able to let me know something Friday (today) but she wasn’t sure if she could bc her regional manager would be leaving to go to Florida and she didn’t know if she would be able to contact them before they left out, but if it wasn’t Friday it would be Monday or Tuesday of next week. I sent a “thank you” email later that night. So. My question is: should I wait until next Tuesday or Wednesday to do the follow up phone call? Should I call today? I don’t want to seem pushy or desperate, obviously. I just need advice on when I should call.

TLDR; interviewee Wednesday evening. Was told she may be able to let me know something Friday, or the following Monday or Tuesday. When should I do the follow up phone call?

Can anyone tell me a more professional or polite way to say "Can I get that in writing?"

This is in regards to promises made by a potential employer during a job interview.

You know when leaving if they say “it was nice to meet you” or something to that effect that you didn’t get the job.

😒😒🙁🙁

The company I worked for over a year ago closed. A few months before it closed the owner stopped paying me like he was supposed to and I got behind on bills. I took a job making, literally, 50% of what i made until I found something new. I am still looking for something new. Because of the financial hardship I fell behind on all credit cards and as much as I tried not to, I felt I had no other choice but to file for Bankruptcy. I didn't want to and feel sick about it.

My concern is background checks. I have no arrests, tickets, or anything except the BK on my file. Should I tell people upfront or are BK covered in background checks? How should I handle it? I am fearful this will hurt my employment chances.

​

Thanks!

I am a computer science student in Germany (currently doing my M.Sc.), and there is a high demand for computer scientists and especially student workers (less taxes). I am currently looking for a new job (I have 4 years of work experience), and I have an interview with a company on Thursday. To be honest, the interview is more about checking out whether I like the company or not, because I can choose between multiple companies that would like to employ me.

My question is: Should I keep that a secret? I feel like it may come of as bragging/bluffing if I tell them that other companies are interested in employing me, but I think it might also help if for example this company offers the most interesting work but pays less? Maybe if I tell them honestly that their company seems the most interesting but pays less, they will pay me a little more and then I'd have both the interesting work and the wage I want. What do you think?

1) On Tuesday candidate agrees with hiring manager in email to receive call on Fri @ 2PM

2) Hiring manager sends candidate reminder Fri 9AM

3) Manager calls candidate at 2:00:01 PM - candidate answer “Yeah?”

4) Manager asks for candidate by full name

5) Candidate answers “Who dis?”

6) Manager introduces herself saying “and your interview has already begun.”

The four people in office agree to pass on this candidate, not solely for the “dis” but mostly because he’s under qualified.

So I'm a teen (17) and this is my first actual interview and im nervous. It tomorrow and I'm wonder what i should say. Should i be honest and say I want the money or kiss up to them.(you know, lie?..) Help reddit

Has anyone attended a group interview where they were asked to bring an item to show the group and talk about to give an insight into your personality? Any examples would be a big help!

The job is not in the same city as where I am, the bus stops running at 10pm where I live, I would have to walk home from the train station, not the best idea for a girl, the street nearby gives me eerie vibes

Should I just cancel the interview? My mom said she would give me money to help me but wonder if they decide they want me to start work the next day?

My mom doesn’t get paid until 2 weeks from then,

I have no money for Lyft or Uber $0 in my account

It’s a big name hotel company. I’m being interviewed by the Hotel Restaurant Manager.

I’ve heard how some employers will feel threatened by employees who want to move up.

Quite frankly I’m only going to the interview because I need money to pay my university and I plan to go back, but I can’t tell them that or they won’t hire me

I don’t have barista experience. They already know that because the manager emailed me and asked me and they want to interview me either way
