This has got to be the most bizarre HR dept ever. So I got a call back asking me what time I'm available for an interview tmr. After I picked a slot the lady goes well okay I just needed to know not confirming you are actually chosen for an interview. Talk about rude.
Then I get another call from her and I picked up just as I shifted at redline and all of a sudden I get this really polite tone asking me to come down for an interview tmr. Being broke I accepted. @Tcoat thanks for the cliff's notes I'll try and figure out how to play them well I mean I did take semiotics and organizational behavior in school afterall not that I remember a thing lol! |

You can search "automated phone screenings" to see results on it if anyone is interested. This article pretty much summed the experience up for me. Quote:

That's a pretty big stretch. Lots of accents in my office, right in the middle of Chicago. The team I work with most regularly has people in London, Seattle, and San Francisco, and about to add members in Gurgaon. My local associates include people from Bulgaria, all areas of India, China, Romania, Russia, and of course American mutts... and I'm sure I don't even know half of it. Welcome to tech jobs.

What do windshields generally run for? Need to get my truck's windshield replaced, but really don't want to put it on my own credit card if the shop doesn't take a fleet card.
This year I'm trying to limit what goes onto my card for work, since I tallied up some receipts and statements and found that by the end of last year, there was about $500 that I either forgot to expense, didn't expense because it was nickel and dime stuff or that I wasn't allowed to expense. |

Your company won't provide you with an AMEX Corporate Card? When I had one it was automatically linked up with the expense software at work so it matches up with the month end statement, just need to make proper justifications for each transaction on the software then submit to accounting and they'll pay it off. |

Looking at my tax form from this past year, I expensed nearly 40k. Hate it, but the reward points are great. |
