A few months ago over at JobsBlog, I wrote about a job description for a Blog Recruiter with Volt Services in Redmond. It seems Volt has now filled their $12 / hour job, and they’ve been off and blogging for a couple months.
In a recent post, Dale, the "Volt Insider", conveys a story from a “large Redmond software company” and tells you what NOT to do to get hired.
Um, this story is odd from so many angles … and not just the candidate's. Don't even get me started. :) But Dale ends with this apt warning:
I urge all of my readers to be careful. There is a lot of “advice” on the internet these days from self-proclaimed job search professionals which would have you doing or saying things that can be easily taken the wrong way when applied incorrectly.
So that’s right, kiddies. When a self-proclaimed job search professional like me tells you to call a Microsoft Hiring Manager a “mother******”, please don’t. Just don’t do it.
I'm super, duper serial. EXCELSIOR!!!
