If l was looking for someone, you failed at the first hurdle.

Failed at the first Hurdle, didn't realise we had arbtalk police on here, I've managed and delivered multi-million pound contracts, wind your neck in.

Oh they're everywhere...

The issue for all of us - on both sides of the fence - it's all about perception based on the available 'facts'. If someone only wants to talk to applicants who apply perfect logic throughout the recruitment process then that is what they look for. If a prospective employer is willing to trawl through loads of people by meting up and even trying them out ten that's fine.

We all have certain things (based on our own views/bias etc) we look for to weed out those we would not consider.

 

I always ask people to send me something via email. If they can't be bothered to do that then that tells me something. Then with the email I will look at claimed experience, driving license details, qualifications, spelling, grammar and so on.

 

I can see where Al is coming from, maybe harsh, but if that's what he looks for so be it. There are some on here who expect groundsmen to run back from the chipper, some who accept that a colleague crapping in your sandwiches is funny and good for team morale. We are all different.

I would never employ someone who phones me up and calls me 'mate'. I just assume people like that are 'geyser' types a la Paul Whitehouse.

 

Don't take it personally and good luck.

I wouldn't recruit myself with those typos!

Bully for you! You should know better then.

You put a lot of good points across.
But how is using the word "mate" an instant fail?

I just feel that people who refer to strangers as 'mate' come across as trying to be familiar when they are strangers. It's my own biased opinion, in the same way that I take an instant dislike to any tattooed BMW driver who drives aggressively - I would not want to have any dealings with such people.

As I said earlier, it's just my own perception.
