Why don't you have a job yet?
I had the intial phone interview for a job I REALLY want today. The guy was very nice, knew I had contacted people in the company before, knew I knew the basics of the position, etc. etc.
We had a pretty nice talk, we were hitting it off, but then he asked a question that threw me off. He asked why I thought I hadn't found a job yet. I stumbled and answered that I hadn't done enough networking while in school, missed out on the normal recruiting periods, and jobs are scarce now...you get the picture.
I'm going to send him a thank you email tomorrow, should I include something about the state of the economy / elections? For instance..."regarding why I haven't secured a position yet, I think partially companies are holding back on hiring until the election plays out and the looming fiscal cliff is dealt with." Or something else. And honestly I haven't found anything I've wanted as much as this (which might have contributed to why I haven't gotten anything yet)
Good idea? Bad idea?
no no no. you'll sound like a "blamer," and that's the last kind of person i'd want on my team.
Thats what i figured...thanks for the advice, I'll stick to the positive aspects of the interview!
Out of curiosity, could you tell us what this job that you REALLY want is?
