Bear with me.
Had my first interview today for an electrical position. Local factory is looking for 3 and conducted the interviews at school. So I wait my turn as patient as I could. My turn comes up and into the room I go. We start with the usual, tell us about yourself, greatest accomplishment, worst flaw, that type stuff. The stuff we all hate. I should mention 2 guys are doing the interviewing. Well they decide to go over my resume and sure enough we start talking about my past supervisor job and the experience I had in that. We went over the Toyota Production System and the like. Well how would you handle this, and that. It appears they were more interested in me for a dang supervisor than an electrician. What the crap have I been doing this crap for if I can't get past my past. Need less to say, I don't think I will be getting either of the 2 jobs. I didn't go off, I was polite and didn't burn the bridge, but I didn't cross it either.
