Don’t Send Mixed Messages
Archives: Self Improvement
Overheard in our offices at Early to Rise this week…
Actual interview for a Customer Service Telephone Representative position!
Consider this the new Poster Child for how not to interview for a job…
ETR: Hi, thanks for coming. So, first of all, tell me… why are you leaving your current job?
Applicant: The calls. They are so stressful.
ETR: What do you find stressful about them?
Applicant: There are so many. And the people, they’re all unhappy.
As Dave Barry sometimes says, “I’m not making this up.”

NEXT!
Words do matter.
Make sure you’re sending the right message about yourself… your products… and your company.
