I was having my interview tis evening, my interview wasnt going smoothly. I was being ask 1 question "r u tahan mati", "Can u work 24 hours not stop for 2 weeks?" I really dont noe how 2 answer tat question.

Besides tat, d interviewer condemn me for not buttoning my sleeve. And actually i was doing the interview test for d programming before going into the interview room, so its usual for me to unbutton my sleeve for my better hand movement and the programming test is oni 1hour using d language i've not been using be4. fortunately i was being told tat i can find resources on9 to complete my test.

D interview say she actually emphasize on ppl wearing tie in d interview for better impression. Actually i was wearing tie for almost all my interview be4 tis interview, but lot of d interviewee doesnt wear tie either, maybe d tis kind of job doesnt need to dress so formally, so i decided not to wear tis in this interview.

Haihz, i really dunno wat 2 do le, y those employer make it d hard way to the candidates? Is all d employer d same?

Kindly provide ur comment, thx

I know that doesn't button up d sleeve is a don't in d interview, but i was doing d test for the programming, it is very inconvenient for my hand movement in typing. I admit my fault for not remembering to button it after i finish my test.

I avoid answering the question, then the other interviewer ask me other question, so i didn't answer the question. After that, this guy insist me for answering his question, so i just say yes.

I been to a few of them, but none of the interviewer throw such question to me. Yeah, i'm learning now.

About Rexis question, "Are you TAHAN MATI?" and "Can you work non stop for 2weeks?" is two question. The second question i didn't answer him cause after some time thinking about how to answer, the guy who throw that bomb went out from the interview room already.

About the short hand i use in this thread is to ease my typing and make it faster. I won't do it in my interview either. Anyway thx for piece of advice.

I seek some advice on my friends. May be i should ask them back "Let me ask you one question before answering this question, how much salary are you giving up? I'm wiling to die for you if you salary satisfies me"

And one more thing i wanted to add is the interviewer was busying keying some data in her laptop while asking me to sell my skills and what so ever to win the interview. I was thinking should her at least concentrate on interviewing rather than doing her own job and expecting the interviewee to impressed her. The communication works in both ways.

I know bringing up the money matters is a dont in the interview , but let say he bombard with the question i mentioned, i may need to question him back about how good it is. Is just my thoughts.

To avoid any negaive feedback from the interviewer, i would wear tie and button my sleeve for any interview in future.

He means tat if a project was on rush, one may probably need to stay until the project was finish, even if it takes 2 weeks time non stop.

Anyway d person who interview me is a manager , not sure she is HR onot but i thionk very high position. D person who bombarded me with the question is different person. He is the CEO of the company

Thx for a lot of advice, i just hope that i can do better i the next interview.
