Can you make gut decisions? What's short selling? If I gave you a bottle of water (which he didn't) how would you be able to tell the distance to the ground? If I gave you a job offer - can you make a decision in 15 minutes? He didn't ask about my qualifications - he didn't even look at my resume! He's head was buried in the questionnaire - no eye contact! The receptionist mentioned that they are interviewing 15 candidates per day! Do yourself a favour and do not apply!
