Other great stuff not to do is trashing your current boss or employer, asking about how much time off you get.
Criticizing our choice of vendors or the way we do things when you know nothing about the reasoning, or telling us all about everything you want to change as soon as you walk in is irritating. You need to have a certain humility about you.. that humility being knowing that you don't know everything. |

I just had someone show up a day early for a position I am filling. I'm a bit torn since they are qualified, personable and had a great interview (when we did it on the proper day). But this is a detail oriented job and they put things on their calendar wrong.

Only apply for the job you are qualified for if there are multiple openings if you want to be taken seriously.
We have three openings, one entry level, one with 1-2 years experience with a specific skill set and one with 8+ years and a proven track record. I had some guy 4 years out of college with no relevant experience ask to be considered for all three positions. |

Keep the humor on the legal side.
My job came down to me and one other guy. He was more qualified than me, but took his humor a little too far. We were both asked what we would do if the company gave us $2000. It was December, so I said I'd spoil my kids for Christmas. His reply was, "Buy a brick of cocaine". Not a good answer for a job taking care of expensive equipment.

Do they even teach BASIC anymore? I like to get my GOTOs and my A$ on every so often.
