Automated phone interviews?
#18987289 - 10/16/13 05:40 PM (10 years, 4 months ago) |

I got an e-mail from a potential employer yesterday to complete an online screening process, at the end, it told me to call a number and verify a PIN to continue. So I did. Well, on the other end of this process was a fucking automated phone interview where I was expected to answer in depth questions about my previous employment.
I was not expecting this at all, as I have been drinking a bit since I started the online process.
I sounded like a fucking idiot . Lots of pauses, hesitant answers, etc. I'm hoping this doesn't fuck me over in the process, but I'm assuming it will.
Has anybody else had an automated phone interview, where a computer voice asks you questions and it records your responses to be screened by people later?

I was under the impression that the quote box is hidden from users who have you on ignore.

It is, but not if you edit the text of their name I think.

I don't really see what your guys circle jerk has anything to do about automated interviews.
To op no I didnt know they did that im a people person. I talk my way into jobs I wouldnt even want to work with the company if that's how they screen people.

I had a automatic phone interview once.
I also thought I sounded like an idiot. It really is weird. No time to think at all.
I never heard back from them of course

A lot of these newfangled job recruitment methods seem like they probably favor terrible candidates.

Real basic questions that you would find in any standard interview.
Name a time that you went beyond your job description... Explain why you think you would be a benefit to this company... And then a couple technical questions about the position I was applying for, "What would you do in a situation like..."
Like I said, I was pretty drunk, so I don't remember exactly what the questions were.
