Top Reasons Why You Didn't Get Hired

You were super psyched about the interview you just had, but it's been three weeks, and you still haven't gotten that call back that they promised you... Some of these reasons could be why.

Your handwriting/spell sucks

You're rude or any form of impolite

You demand things

You bring an entourage with you
(your ride/significant other/buddies should stay in the car)

You don't introduce yourself properly

You won't may eye contact

You dressed like you rolled out of bed or you're going to the dance club

You repeat yourself, use the word um or and too much

You use your cellphone before/during/after the interview

You aren't prepared
(copies of your resume, references, don't have answers to interview questions)


Remember, before and after the interview or filling out an application you're being watched! Act like someone an employer wants to hire!!!

Coupons and Deals

My husband and I are on a coupon kick. My boss also loves coupons. I will update this post as often as I remember on new coupon deals. Some of these have funny URLs because you get money for referring others after you sign up. You are looking at my referral links.

Welcome!

I have tried blogging in the past, and I think my problem was I was trying to make myself too small of a corner. I had this little tiny corner, and I had so many broader topics to write about, and I felt I would be totally off topic. I am ready to try something different.

Wisdom, Folly, and Other Memos is my attempt at encompassing things I've learned and things I know that I hope to share with others in hopes they can learn the easy way instead of the hard way.

I currently work for a staffing agency placing associates. I've also worked for a payday advance store, retail, food, factories... I've done quite a bit in my 24 years. I want to share, will you sit down with me?
