Okay, experienced and non-experienced professionals. How many of you have ever experienced what Karen Rempel detailed here:

Feel free to let the comments fly!

Wow. No, I haven’t. Thanks for sharing, Karen. I laughed, I cringed.

Karen’s article is a classic that could be added to the annals of hilarious interview bloopers, like “
“Where do you see yourself in five years?”
“Celebrating the fifth year anniversary of you asking me that question.”

Hi RJ,

I’m glad your experience has been more positive (through not actually having one!). Thanks for volunteering to give info interviews through our new Information Interview Service.

Evidently the post-interview thank you is still not ingrained in people. What are they teaching people in schools today?!

Warmly,
Karen
