10 Things You Shouldn’t Say On a Job Interview
10)So that’s the advertised salary, but how much will I really be making?
9)Will I have access to the company hooker?
8)Will you cover for me if my wife calls?
7)These are high speed shredders right?
6)Your wife is beautiful, she looks an awful lot like my ex.
5)Will you guys set up my offshore account or do I have to take care of that myself?
4)Look, I’m an accountant, playing with numbers is my thing, do the big boys want to make some real money here or are you content with your little scraps? (play this one by ear though)
3)Leadership skills? In college I was president of Sigma Chi and led a successful pantie raid on the Delta Delta Delta house. We even framed the Pikes for it because they had a reputation as the date rape frat. That shows I can lead and assess blame.
2)Where do I see myself in 10 years? Hopefully I’ll be sitting in your seat. I mean sorry, I’m sure your “retirement” party and severance package will be lovely.
1)Team building is definitely important. At my old job a colleague and I had a contest to see who could sleep with the most women in the office.
