3 States! 24 interviews! 2 stars!
Finally get a break! this week was extremely busy and I'll be lying if I say i am not looking forward to thanksgiving week (yup i am taking the week off!). How busy have I been? well I have been in three states, had 24 interviews bumped into two stars (Brian Mcknight and Keith Sweat) all in four days. Discovered airport restrooms to avoid (AVOID OHIO AIRPORT TOILETS!!!) hold it for however long!
As much as possible avoid older cab drivers especially if your flight is early in the morning... i mean it's either they drive as slow as heck (even after you've told them you are running late) or they release fart without warning and with windows up (I mean whats up with me and cab drivers).
My people I have become an expert in interviews. I mean try having 7 interviews back-to-back, two days in a row...comprising of technical questions and behavorial tests. In one of my interviews, I actually got to meet with a shrink! It's funny how at times we watch the Shrink/ patient scene on TV and draw the conclusion its just an act...my people its not ooooo I mean this shrink got me to talk about everything from my past to present covering work, family and friends...he even sought to find what my most evil thoughts were....na wa ooo to get a job these days is turning into something else.
This process has been humbling....I mean I walk in there with my head up and I walk out with a strange feeling that i have been torn a new one! So within a week, i have accumulated so many travel and hotel points, become an expert in interviews.
I realize I promised to post a blog that would cause the ladies to scream and the fellas to smile... I'll post it when I get to ATL. Yup I am off to ATL for the week... that town better bubble oooo or else I am going to cause a lot of drama...
Watch out for my next post "Games women play". It's bound to be eye opening, informative and disturbing.
So what do y'all have lined up for Thanksgiving?

miguel miguel - 24 interviews in 7 days - now that is a record - all in 3 states - aah this is very serious - and they had to throw in a shrink - na wa oo - what do they expect from you - that you will not come into work one day and decide to shoot everyone dead.
Maybe its that your field - LOL - so you will be taking the week off - this is good - Ive taken your advice to go see the naija office in atl next week
Hope you have a fully rested weekend.
