The Questioning Enthusiast Gifts

"What do you mean I ask too many questions?"

I hope a starting salary of 80 and a severance of 12 is acceptable....

"And finally, I'd like to take any questions from the floor."

Do you have any other skills?

'Don't start timing me yet! This staple won't come out!'

'And I see you've listed opposable thumbs as your greatest asset...'

"I'm looking for a 'yes man' who can say 'no' without sounding negative"

'Your resume and interview were so bad, not only did you not get the job, I'm having you arrested as well.'

"You say you’re currently holding down 3 jobs...very impressive."

"That's nice, but do you have any references other than your Mom?"

And I like to call this my 'dance of the enhanced PEP at alternative firms'.

"So, you want to work at our firm, Eh?"

Help wanted. Various positions available.

"I see you have a lot of experience in re-tail. . ."

'The position carries no salary, just healthcare coverage.'

"Again, you may exercise your right to remain silent, but it's going to work against you since this is a job interview."

'He will observe your text now...'

"Would you like something you're under qualified for, or something you're overqualified for?"

'I'm now going to open the floor to questions.'

'You don't want the job, do you?'

"And where do you see your mustache in five years?"

'Have you got a resume?'

'I see you have extensive experience eating, sleeping, and mating. That puts you two steps ahead of all the college graduates who have applied.'

"Where do you see yourself five lives from now?"

Don't use live interviews as rehearsals-practise and prepare.

"If I wanted your opinion I would have hauled you in for questioning."

X-RAY

"I enjoyed your resume, young man - especially the hand-written addendum from your mom."

I think you should go after my job!

'What makes you think you know so much?' - 'Your questions.'

Multi-Species Employment Agency. Did you hire the octopus for that job opening? Yeah, but I did interview other applicants. The frog was a strong candidate ... I'm flexible on location -- I'm an amphibian! The whale seemed to be hiding something. The gap in my resume? Uh ... I was beached for a while. And the pig wasn't smart. I see "USDA Approved" on your resume --- I don't think you understand what that means. The octopus got the job because he was a great multitasker!

'Congratulations, you've got the job. Unfortunately though, you'll be constantly late, and we'll fire you in two months.'

"You're the type who'll make me prove every claim I make."

"So you wouldn't be interrupted while interviewing me, I took the liberty of calling in a bomb threat."

'I'm quite impressed with your bloodthirstiness but we won't be able to offer you health benefits eternally.'
