Company Knowledge


The plan: Research a company to get a decent idea of what they do, get called from said company, tell them about what you know as well as raise well-articulated questions for whoever is calling (presumably a HR Manager of sorts), and then progress to the next stage of the job interview process.

In reality: Procrastinate by any means possible to minimise time spent on researching a company, get called from said company as a complete and utter surprise, scramble to pull together as many facts about the company from the Internet as you barely manage to traverse the conversation, and then realise that everything you said in the last 20 minutes hardly made any coherent sense to whoever was calling.

Which path will you take, amigo? Choose one, and choose wisely (i.e. choose reality, because very few things ever go to plan in the world of jobs).
