Norman Verona Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 Problem is that Steve still has to ring everyone back. OK, he may filter out a few but it's still time. His best bet is to get an apprentice who can take messages and help in the shop. I know most are a waste of time and space but some are OK, it's just finding them. We ask one question. "Why do you want this job" The answer to that will normally tell you if they really want to work. For example we asked the first lad why he wanted the job. His answer was not expected. My mum doesn't work and is in bed most of the day, my two brothers are on the dole and just hang around with their mates all day. I want a proper job so I get up in the morning and go to work and then get paid at the end of the week. He's now on full pay and is number two in the department. Mind you, you have to interview several before you find the one. Quote

M444TTB Posted November 16, 2013 Posted November 16, 2013 I'm sure everyone would accept a couple of % rise in the price you charge if you were to employ a hot secretary. I'd probably call for daily progress checks on my car Quote
