Interview post-game report.

BTW, the Excel test I was so frazzled about...turned out I only missed one question,
I guess on one of the others they only wanted to know if I could make a chart, they didn't care that I couldn't figure out how to do the labels.

Also did really well on the weird personality test.

This is the closest I've gotten to getting a job over the past ten months, and I'm pretty excited, but I know there are still hurdles to be crossed. The main thing I am concerned about is the background check taking forever, also I am worried that the situation with the psychotic landlord might create a snag if they ask for contact info of every place I've lived. But a) What are the chances of them asking that, and b) of the hundreds of people in the area who work at casinos, none of them have any kind of similar issue? [we ended up suing each other and settled out of court, so it isn't even an issue of a judgment on my record or anything.] I really doubt it will be an issue, but I know the best policy is full disclosure. All of the reading I've been doing on the subject has said that many times when people ended up losing their jobs or not being hired over background check issues, it was due to not disclosing something that in many cases would have not been a big deal had they only been open about it.

If I do get hired, this blog could be a little more interesting, though posts will be less frequent.
