RE: Preparation for a phone screen interview

[John Posada <JPosada -at- book -dot- com>]

how-zat?

The interview is being conducted to get a job and to find someone for the
job. How is doing exactly what the interview is for (fill a position)
counterproductive to getting a job.

I'm not interviewing for fun, I'm not interviewing for a hobby. You have a
position that needs to be filled and I want it. Don't lose perspective of
what is really going on.

That sounds counterproductive to me.

Cheers,

>>But, in an interview, don't both sides have an obligation to be
honest?

NO

Each side's obligation is A) get the job, or B) get the person they want
for
the job.
