the best laid plans often are destroyed very simply. such as when a company says in the middle of may that they'll take you on for the summer then turn around a week before you are meant to start and decide not to take you.
thus, i had to find a job. and fast. due to my overdraft running getting close to it's maximum as the days go by... having been offered a couple of part time jobs (i need full time) i submitted to the inevitable and decided to ask the first place i ever worked for a job. so i did, and i got it (they like me there. i am actually willing to work...). the bad thing? it involves washing dishes.
anyway-i was given a "numerical reasoning" test to do when i was there. this includes such questions as "after spending £256.27, a sum of £358.73 remains for the purchase of office stationary. What was the sum originally allocated? A: £103, B: £242, C: £456, D: £561 or E: £615. you may use a calculator...
however-what does my language and problem solving abilities have to do with my dish washing ability? it's just weird...😕

Originally posted by shavixmirthere was also the "mental" test. 26.25x10. this is not multiple choice, and no calculator allowed!
Please....tell me about it.
I have to fill in application forms which want detailed information about every minute and aspect of life from leaving school onwards, why I quit my previous job and accountability for every second I wasn't working.

Give me a break. Bastards.
personally, i don't really see the point in half the questions on job application forms. i mean, the employer is not gonna look through all of the answers to all the questions on all the forms, is he? unless he is rather sad...😕
