Crazy Interviews!

We've been having some crazy interviews for the temp that's supposed to take my spot while I'm on maternity leave.

The first girl we interviewed was overly bubbly and didn't seem to have enough experience. She also was way too candid and told her story about how she's a single mom raising her daughter and that she's only worked from home for the past 4 years. She was really nice though. But yah, she was one who would chit chat way more than work, which totally didn't fly with Socorro. Since this person would be Socorro's right-hand gal while I was out, Socorro probably had the last say.

Kevin, the VP, wanted to hire her, but he's the type of person that would hire anyone to give them a chance if they seemed good. Unfortunately, there was no way she'd get passed Socorro. She doesn't want to work with someone who would constantly distract her with unnecessary chit chat because she's just way too busy. Plus, the girl didn't really have the experience that I have, so Socorro wouldn't be able to depend on her if needed.

Our second girl was perfect. She had the experience and was super professional. She seemed like the perfect one to take my spot. She was so good that when we had our huddle without her, we immediately all voted yes. Socorro went out to get her and tell her the good news. But, of course, this wasn't gonna be easy. She was supposed to start on Tuesday, but ended up as a no call, no show! Booo!

We had the next to interviewees today. The first girl seemed good, at least, up until her phone started vibrating in the middle of the interview! She even made it seem like it wasn't her phone and just ignored it. It went off for minutes and then Kevin thought, perhaps it was his phone. So he got up, while in the middle of this interview, went behind his desk and checked. Nope, wasn't his phone. And me and Socorro didn't bring our phones in during the interview. Eventually, her phone stopped. Then, minutes later, while in the middle of answering one of Kevin's questions, she started reaching down and digging into her bag! Like seriously rummaging through! I was like, what the heck is she doing? LOL! Then, she pulled out a manila folder and started fanning herself. Hahahaha! That was so freaking hilarious!

The last girl, was like Oh My Goodness! She had too much experience and totally talked everyone to death! I saw Kevin and he was kind of staring up at the ceiling and at the same time tapping his foot like a mad man. LOL. I totally felt my eyes drooping. I think a few times, she looked at me and saw my eyes half closed. Hahaha. I wasn't sure if everyone really felt the same as I did, but after I walked her to the elevator and went back, Socorro was totally like, OMG! Right when she left her and Kevin were like, she talked way too much and they kept wondering when it was gonna be over! Hahaha! And apparently Kevin was looking at the ceiling so that he didn't look at Socorro and start busting up laughing. ROFL!

Oh man, the people we interview! So funny! You totally meet some strange characters!

Sadly though, they still don't have a temporary replacement for me. Sorry though, not my prob! After tomorrow, I'm peacing out 'til November!
