The Critic Posted April 23, 2006 Share Posted April 23, 2006 QUOTE(whitesoxin' @ Apr 22, 2006 -> 05:34 PM) So now I know what it feels like to have my heart ripped out of my chest, stomped on, kicked, and thrown into the garbage can. Not fun. And I had to turn down a chance to go to tonight's game because of it. The best cure for a ripped out/stomped on/kicked/garbaged heart is a Sox game. Remember that next time. Sorry to hear about the heartbreak. It DOES get better, though. It may not seem like it will, but it does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxin' Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 If I was a boss I would definitely want to interview the person face to face to get a better idea of the person. If I was looking for a job, I would imagine an over the phone interview would be much easier. You could do it in your PJs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It keeps going and going with a lot of companies. Monster/career builders/hot jobs = 1,000s of applicants Committee/recruiter/HR whittles it down to dozens Phone interviews whittle it down to ten or so Rounds of committee interviews to two or three Someone pulls a name out their ass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bonus would be that Jim could still drive... We're in Hillside, approximately 290 and Mannheim. Rosemont is just a few more miles down 294 We're trying to figure out the driving logistics. Ideally we would like to still drive together. I think they will let me work out a flex schedule - they indicated as much. Just have to work out the incentives. I've been driving since I got the Beem.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
