Delete comment from: Captain Capitalism
There are a few islands of sanity still out there, Cap. Some time ago, I interviewed at a fairly sizeable company that performed highly technical work. The man who interviewed me (Technical Recruiter) spoke to me on the phone for five minutes, interviewed me on site for five minutes, introduced me to the shop supervisor (who looked at my resume for about 20 seconds, then asked me when I wanted to start), then filled out my pre-employment paperwork. The "HR Department" (a nice older lady) was responsible for filling out my tax forms and arranging for direct deposit of my paycheck.
AND THAT WAS IT. No "where do you see yourself in five years" grilling from a young ditz trying to act as a filter.
Very refreshing. And likely a vanishing experience.
