How’s the weather?
You were asked a simple but tricky question! Many job seekers don’t realize that their answer to it also means a lot, thinking it was asked just to break the ice.
For example, if you start complaining about how bad the weather is and how difficult it was for you to find the office, you can forget about this job. At the same time, if you answer something like, “good” or “okay,” you could give an impression of someone who is not really open or sociable. It’s best to answer this question in full, in a relaxed and positive manner, as if you’re answering any other question about the job.
what a load of cr#p.

Totally agree. companies want loyalty from the employees but don't reciprocate. As an instructor told us at TAP class (transitioning from military to civilian life), "If the company could accomplish the job without hiring you they would."
Transition Assistance Program. That was a joke when I went through.
They didn't have that when I mustered out.
Companies should maybe focus more on thinking of their prospective workers as actual people and offer a motivating workplace instead of trying to find the ones they can treat like cr#p without them ever raising a finger to change anything.
Like what exactly do you seek? A honest employee or one that will bend the truth to get the job?
I've read this stuff too for my application but just to be prepared for the expected questions. (not the engineered responses)
There's nothing worse than showing up unprepared and not showing interest and motivation for the company.
after that I stopped reading. what a BS.
and hear me out, maybe, just maybe, stop asking stupid questions.....
people are there because they need money for food and roof above their heads...
