i'll play kero for the position if you pay for relocation... as long as it's not a spot on your couch.

He's probably not interested in your job, but interested in any job.

can't really be true. it's not like someone looking for any job sees an add for a chess instructor and goes... "hrmmm, i can do that!" [img]/images/graemlins/tongue.gif[/img]

[/ QUOTE ]

It's more like, "I know how to play chess!" and then proceeds to scribble down the number on a random piece of paper, call the number, then lose it (apparently).

A good interview question would be "What did you do in between the time you called the first time and the second time?"

Planning his next move? Didn't want to leave his queen unprotected? Keeping his bishops from buggering the pawns?

Aaron, his obvious plan is to mate in 27 moves but he forgot he is on the clock.

ok so i have little formal experience in recruiting/hiring, but tell me if this makes you want to hire someone:

dude sees a standing ad for instructors on the company website. it has my office phone number, which he calls. so far so good.

he calls on the Friday after thanksgiving and leaves a voicemail where he says he's calling about the instructor position for [pause] [mumble mumble].

i call him back this morning and leave a voicemail saying to call me on my office phone (the number to which i provide) to talk about the position, and also to email a resume or cv to my email address (which i also provide).

he calls my cell back an hour or so later. i answer and ask him to call my office phone. he says ok, let me find a pen. a few moments of silence, then i give him my office number (which he has because he's called it before *and* it's in his voicemail). he says he'll call me back.

15 minutes pass. no phone call. no email.

we haven't even talked about the job and i already want to write O RLY? across this guy's forehead with a sharpie.


here's some advice for anyone out there who applies for a job: don't be a dumbass and things will go better for you.

up to 25 minutes now. he better be awfully goddamn good at chess.

It does not make me want to hire someone. Did you put your an application on the website?

You are like putting people in your employ now? Serious business!
