I had to interview a number of people for a position and there were 5 people all arriving one after the other. One of the candidates arrived early, which I thought was a good sign and the interview proceeded very well, till, that moment when I asked her to tell me why I should hire her. She began by explaining how she knew that the guy before her was unacceptable, by the way he dressed his walk and his facial expressions. Because, she knows people and she can tell!! Not content with that she then began to tell me about what type of manager I am. Interestingly some of what she said was true, but a lot of it was not. I thanked her for her honest appraisal of others and returned to the question, saying, But what do you bring to the role? The answer, "isn't it obvious" she said, I understand people, "I know how to get them to do what I want" I thanked her for her time and as she walked out the door she turned looked at me and said, if you know what is good for you, you will hire me. Needless to say i did not hire her. TJNTIY.
