Maybe this summer we have been too serious in this forum… I hope that you will like the way I understand some employers
SOMETIMES…
What some employers say:
Must be deadline oriented
What they mean by it
You’ll be six months behind schedule on your first day
What they say:
Some overtime required
What they mean by it
Some time each night and some time each weekend
What they say:
Must have an eye for detail
What they mean by it
We have no quality control
What they say:
Flexible hours
What they mean by it
Work 60 hours; get paid for 40
What they say:
Requires team leadership skills
What they mean by it
You’ll have the responsibilities of a manager, without the pay or respect
In this forum we love documentation so mush. Mission, vision, values… and performance evaluations:
What they write in performance evaluations:
Hard worker
What they mean by it
Usually does it the hard way
What they write:
Inspires the cooperation of others
What they mean by it
Gets everyone else to do the work
What they write:
Identifies major problems
What they mean by it
Complains a lot
What they write:
Accepts new job assignments willingly
What they mean by it
Never finishes a job
What they write:
Charismatic

No interest in any opinion but his own
What they write:

What they mean by it
Pain in the ass
