I mentioned in my BD thread that I went to Wisconcin for an Interview last Monday.
It was the typical 3 hour flight with a 2 hour layover in Chicago, met some really nice kids who like to throw food in the "F" coucourse.
All of the sudden I hear an anouncement. "Would the passenger who lost their season ticket to the Boston Red Sox games please come to the central information desk."
Wearing my Boston Red Sox cap and sporting a Pats tote bag I got a few glances from those who assumed the tickets were problably mine. I Wish !! But the comute from Oklahoma would be a Biotch.
I got to Central Wisconsin and grabbed a car. Went to my hotel, then directly to my interview. I spent about 4.5 hours talking and then took a tour of the facility.
The inside scoop is when they asked me questions I actually used something I heard on "The Office".
They asked me about my biggest weakness, Of course I remembered when Michael answered with I am a workaholic. And spun it with "My biggest weakness is that I care to much about my crew, I often will stick my neck out supporting their actions even if they were wrong." I am a self directed Team Leader not a reactive boss.
Anyway, Stora Enso called me yesterday and requested References, I am expecting an offer within the next week.
They would'nt request refrences if I was not their top choice would they? I mean why waste their time or resources on candidates they were not sure of. :shrug:
