CV Testing

Posted on 28/2/2006 at 13:52 in Test | 0 comments | link
I'd like to introduce you to a term I just made up: "CV Testing".

To me this is a term used when someone applies for a job and hasn't read their CV. Comments such as:
        "Does my CV say that?", or
        "I've never heard of it" (but it's on your CV...)
are probably not the best way to get a job.

Unfortunately some of the interviews for potential testers that I've been involved in over the years have gone this way, which is a shame, as an otherwise good candidate is let down by what appears to be pure fabrication, given that anything written on their CV is "fair game" in an interview. This includes hobbies and interests... "so Mr X tell me about your experiences in the world of supercharged snail racing?"
