Attitudes That Need Makeovers

A gentleman phones me the other day about a job I posted on line. He told me that he was "one of the 40 million unemployed out there" and that I owed him a job!! Of course, when i received his resume I was able to quickly determine that his skills were a mismatch for the position I was working on. Even if he was a match, I would have to be totally out of ideas before submitting him.

Things are tough out there and jobs are going to overqualified candidates. Don't turn down anything right now, just be glad to get a chance and remember, whenever you interview, end the meeting by saying THANK YOU!
