Accepted Offer – Interviewed in Tulsa, OK Jan 2008 – Reviewed Jun 15, 2010
Interview Details – Questions that did not pertain to the position applied for at all. It was almost like they google "questions to ask in an interview" and printed them out and read them word for word. Questions such as "if you were in a position where someone was mad at you how would you talk them out of being mad at you". Just lame. Nothing to do with my IT skills at all.
