When the Interviewer Doesn't Interview You

Many interviewers just don't know the basics about interviewing both from the company's or the interviewees perspective. Its mind blowing how little knowledge some of these people posses. Its wonder that many of these businesses survive at all.

Being that I get to the second and third interviews, I'm surprised about how bad the egos are at the VP level. Many of these VPs want to tell you about themselves and how wonderful they are. They then launch into some off the subject conversation that is not even related to their business and what they think of that. Geez, many of them do not even know what they are talking about and I've been fortunate enough not to get a call back. Many of these bloviating morons must think they were chosen by God to enlighten us unfortunate job seekers with their pearls of wisdom. I want to be employed again but not at the expense of my soul and sanity.
