A strange job interview Today I have had a very important meeting, a job interview with a local company. This company needs laywers in order to encourage other spanish companys begin to trade with foreing countries. Before going to the company's headquarter I was pretty nervous, it was my first serious chance to find a good job. I worked as farmer, as janitor and as logistic officer but I've never work as laywer. I didn't study a bachelor degree in law and a master degree about advocacy to store freight in a warehouse!. It's a good idea to notice that Spain is swarming with young people who has studied at university and they can´t find a qualificated job, a job adjust to their bachelor degree. When I arrived at the company office at half past four in the evening, I rang the doorbell and nobody got back to me although CEO tell me to get in time at the office. I had to wait for the CEO about 30 minutes. The waiting time has been longer than the interview time. During the interview the CEO make no more than twelve questions, only he checked by asking me if the CV 's data was real. When the CV was checked he told me maybe I would call you to work with us. What is the point in interviewing without making questions about the applicant?.

A strange job interview

Today I had a very important meeting, a job interview with a local company. This company needs laywers in order to encourage other Spanish companies to begin trading with foreign countries.

Before going to the company's headquarter I was pretty nervous, it was my first serious chance to find a good job.  I worked as a farmer, a janitor, and as logistic officer but I've never worked as a laywer.
I didn't earn a bachelor's degree in law and I have a master's degree to store freight in a warehouse!  

It's good to note that Spain is swarming with young people who have studied at a university and they can´t find a jobs in their field, only jobs that deal with their bachelor's degrees.

When I arrived at the company office at half past four in the afternoon, I rang the doorbell and nobody got back to me although the CEO told me to the office at that time.  I had to wait about 30 minutes to see the CEO.

The wait time was longer than the interview. During the interview the CEO asked no more than twelve questions, he only checked by asking me if the information on my CV was true.  When the CV was checked he told me that maybe he would call me to work for them.
