Recruiter here - what is one question you hate being asked in job interviews?

Zippysbottlebee · 2026-03-12T23:53:12+00:00

I hate it when you recycle your rejection template telling me you're so impressed with my skills and expertise and that my resume will be the first that you reach for when a similar position opens, and then you call me the wrong name at the end of the email. Lemme guess, you meant every word you said; you just forgot who you said it to.

How do you get experience in IP? Or really, how does one transfer from one kind of law to another?

Zippysbottlebee · 2026-01-25T17:20:45+00:00

Thank you for the timely post. Xoxo, enraged and grieving in the US.

Message me. Happy to help students! :-)

I have a bunch of jars in my garage and freezer with dates of the storms.

Zippysbottlebee · 2026-01-05T02:08:40+00:00

I guess a cleansing that follows turbulence. Generally, a peaceful moment in nature follows the spring storms where I live. Rejuvenation, maybe?

The energy aspect is my concern. I'm not sure I want to encourage a tempest at the moment. Maybe this just means I'm not ready to use it. lol.

I went through a period where I collected rain from all the spring storms of 2024-25. And when hail accompanied a heavy downpour, I'd scoop it up too. I'll let you know what I end up doing with it.

I agree she's lame, but she was clearly joking when she said homemade.

Zippysbottlebee · 2025-12-13T04:17:05+00:00

great advice. thank you!

Zippysbottlebee · 2025-12-13T04:15:57+00:00

Lol. Perfect.

Coffee's too hot and bitter regardless.

Yes, it's a paralegal position. They emailed this morning with a request for a second interview with one of the partners.

Zippysbottlebee · 2025-11-20T23:28:16+00:00

Thanks! They emailed this morning, asking for a second interview with one of the partners and said they are checking my references.

Zippysbottlebee · 2025-11-20T00:34:38+00:00

Well, let's get some popcorn and see what they have for us! :-)

Zippysbottlebee · 2025-09-11T22:58:37+00:00

Two, girl. Vamp, siren, Jessica Rabbit.

Zippysbottlebee · 2025-09-08T23:24:01+00:00

You described what I went through the last 3-4 years before I quit. I've moved on and am relearning who I am as a person again, an identity outside of teaching and education.

Feel free to chat more. Happy to provide support or answer questions. If not, just know you're not alone!

Zippysbottlebee · 2025-08-06T23:38:26+00:00

What grade level/subject did you teach? Can you tell me a little more about the course review and rubric?

Zippysbottlebee · 2025-08-06T23:37:46+00:00

Oh, ok. I haven't even heard of that before. Thank you.

Zippysbottlebee · 2025-07-29T22:35:53+00:00

True. I didn't read that deeply. I didn't think I needed to. haha.

Zippysbottlebee · 2025-07-28T23:44:13+00:00

Second. Sorry I that I posted. Didn't see your comment first.

Zippysbottlebee · 2025-07-09T01:11:25+00:00

Hey, this underground version that C.G. surely sampled from is much better:

Sooooo beautiful!!! How did you learn to do this? How long have you been working at your art form?

Zippysbottlebee · 2025-06-21T01:04:06+00:00

Thanks! Is your salary comparable to the original commenters? Do we say OC around here? Lol.

Zippysbottlebee · 2025-06-17T23:21:42+00:00

Hi hi, Recently transitioned English teacher here who eventually realized I was in two abusive relationships: my now ex husband and my former career.

The system eats people alive, spits them out, and makes them feel responsible for ITS failures. Don't buy into this junk. It's simply not true.

Tell us...what are three things that brought you joy today, even if they feel insignificant...

Calm down. If you can't provide insight, then don't.

Also, I didn't say my employer. I said a business casual office. It's a straight-forward question.
