I arrived at your article having turned down an invitation to &#39;meet for coffee&#39; with someone who aspired to recruit me this week (that is, they approached me based on my reputation on another job, I didn&#39;t apply for a job with their company). I can&#39;t imagine what he was thinking before I turned him down without meeting him, but now I&#39;m pretty sure he&#39;s thinking &quot;damn, I wish I&#39;d chosen a more professional approach&quot;.Rachelnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275703768599664559.post-22718128345749054332008-10-01T08:22:00.000-07:002008-10-01T08:22:00.000-07:00bw - on top of the inconvenience, the interviewer has to pick an isolated spot (as if there exists) in the coffee shop to have some "privacy". <BR/><BR/>joshmarie - hahaha! siguro nga. thanks for the visit!<BR/><BR/>panaderos - the distractions will definitely affect one's focus on the interview. unless you have a great ability to shut off the noise and keep focus on the things that matter at that point in time, then the location of the interview is irrelevant.Marihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17298576391786364037noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275703768599664559.post-1097013406566381932008-10-01T05:53:00.000-07:002008-10-01T05:53:00.000-07:00I'm not too crazy about this interview approach. The interview process should be given the dignity and seriousness it deserves. Conducting it in a coffee shop makes the process prone to unnecessary distractions and gives the impression that other priorities were in play other than identifying the right candidate for a job.Panaderoshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03404619097665070778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275703768599664559.post-56710769922034644902008-10-01T01:21:00.000-07:002008-10-01T01:21:00.000-07:00dapat mabasa ito ng mga nag-aapply ngayon na coffeeshop supervisor sa HIRED sa QTV-11 :)JoShMaRiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13733347227893145472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2275703768599664559.post-4371800047324222782008-09-30T21:17:00.000-07:002008-09-30T21:17:00.000-07:00same with me. I hate the crowded/noisy coffee shop environment. It is not conducive to serious talk such as a job interview. I had an interview over lunch once but a quiet restaurant and it was great.bwhttp://bwzone.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.com
