Sparky Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 Randomnly yesterday someone put a status on facebook saying, got the job, I commented saying get me one dont know what it is but I dont care I'll do it!!They sent me the email to send the CV to, so I sent one, half hour later they said come in at half 5 for an interview!!Went there quite relaxed, but then got really nervous, there was 9 of us there and only 6 jobs. We all had to stand up at the front and talk about ourselves and past jobs. The job is working for yes loans on the phone I have done NOTHING like that in my life just worked in factories on production lines.6 other people there had call centre experience so I thought FUCK I may aswell just walk out now.Phone them this morning and I start at 8.45 monday!Well chuffed hopefully I can get out of my overdraft now and I am tempted to buy a run around and take the GT off the road when the debt is cleared unless I can sve up enough for new coilovers in August before MOT time!Anyway just had to post this Quote
Nanglebadger Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 congrats man thats great news!well chuffed for u!Phil. Quote

SpeedFreak Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 How random is that! Well done though, just shows it's not always about the past experiences. They obviously liked your personality. Unless it was a woman interviewer, in which case she fancied ya!Well done! Quote
Idrees Posted June 26, 2009 Posted June 26, 2009 Nice one Lewis, good luck with it. Hope theres some nice chicks there for you as well, haha. Quote
