Wtf? I honestly hope girlfriends number part was a joke..
@myss it was a joke. I would not be shocked if they did though.
If I'm not answering their calls, someone else could which increases the chance of reaching me.
- have you even looked up this company? Do you even know what they do?
- it's used to filter out the CV spammers who are just throwing them at any job and seeing what sticks.
- are you happy with a 9-5 job with the occasional light night?
do you see yourself as a perfect for for the roles?
- this could just be a test In itself. The safe answer is no, with room to improve.
- this is to see if you have a plan, a goal for your career or hell even happy just to continue doing dev work.
But most of these are standard questions to see if you actually fit within the company, have researched the company and are willing to work more then a strict 9-5 job.
@C0D4 interesting insight, but if you are having 2 to 3 job interviews every week for one to two months, it becomes exhausting to memorize all of the company history etc.
I had that last year. 3 interviews in the same week while having to learn for an exam.
And besides of that no one would really love to do that. I can learn about the company after me getting the job.
@-ANGRY-STUDENT- I don't think you are expected to know the history of the company, but it's reasonable to expect you to have looked at what the company does.
I mean - if its a consulting firm, the technologies involved and the general field that the company gets customers from might be enough. But if you're applying for a job in a start up company that produces assistant robots they will likely a) want you to have understood the pros/cons of working in a start up and b) be passionate about the future of robotics.
Because they’re trying to protect you from mistake they made a few years ago by applying for work.
" Nope.  I'm leaving."
I have to go out and apply to a job just so I can try this one!
And I don't even need the job!
Maybe if you went to the interviews with a more positive, open vibe you would have a better chance to get those jobs?
@krz1 the thing is that I am going to interviews with a positive vibe, but I often regret it when I get out of the interview.
If I wasn't having a positive vibe about it, I would have rejected the interview in the first place.
Why wasting my time, right?Red Bull’s Max Verstappen won his home Dutch Grand Prix from pole position for the second year in a row on Sunday to send the fans wild and his Formula One world championship lead into triple figures.
He added a bonus point for the fastest lap as George Russell finished second for Mercedes and Ferrari’s Charles Leclerc completed the podium at Zandvoort.
“They threw everything at us but we made the right calls,” said Verstappen over the radio as he celebrated his fourth win in a row, and 10th in 15 races to surge 109 points clear at the top.
“It’s always special to win your home grand prix, this year I had to work for it even more,” he added as the grandstands full of orange-shirted fans - most of the 105,000 attendance - went into party overdrive.
Leclerc and Verstappen’s Mexican team mate Sergio Perez are tied on points in second place overall, with the Ferrari driver ahead on wins with seven rounds remaining, but Verstappen’s second title looks a formality.
In the constructors’ standings, Red Bull have 511 points to Ferrari’s 376.
Mercedes’ seven-times world champion Lewis Hamilton was fourth, the Briton fuming at his team after leading a race he might have won but for the timing of safety cars and a tyre strategy that left him on slower tyres than rivals.
“I can’t believe you guys,” he said over the radio, with expletives filling the airwaves.
The Mercedes drivers had run one-two for the first time this season, after rivals made their first pitstops, with the pair on an initial one-stop strategy while Verstappen planned for two.
A virtual safety car period triggered by AlphaTauri’s Yuki Tsunoda changed that, however, with Verstappen taking a cheap pitstop and Hamilton complaining his hopes of winning had been “stuffed”.
Tsunoda had stopped by the side of the track on the 44th of 72 laps, complaining a wheel had not been fitted properly.
Told it was safe, he got going again and returned to the pits for a tyre change and seatbelt check before being sent back out -- and stopping.
The full safety car was deployed on lap 55 when Alfa Romeo’s Valtteri Bottas stopped just before the last corner, with Verstappen pitting for soft tyres and Russell calling for the same but Hamilton staying out on the mediums.
Verstappen seized the lead again at the re-start and did not look back, with Russell and Leclerc powering past soon after and triggering a heavily bleeped radio exchange.
“We timed it really well out of that last corner into the banking. You could see the draft was quite strong and we got ahead. It’s incredible to win again,” said Verstappen.
Perez finished fifth with Fernando Alonso sixth for Alpine and Lando Norris, who had forced his way past Russell at the start, seventh for McLaren.
Ferrari’s Carlos Sainz ended up eighth after starting third and finishing fifth on the road, relegated due to a five-second penalty for an unsafe release in the pitlane.
The Spaniard had already been dropped from third to sixth by a pitstop bungle that even team principal Mattia Binotto described as a mess.
Sainz came in after 15 laps for his first stop with the mechanics having only three tyres to put on the car and the driver kept waiting for more than 12 seconds before he could leave.
Perez, who pitted after Sainz and left before him, drove over a Ferrari wheel gun left out of place by a distracted mechanic.
Alpine’s Esteban Ocon was ninth, strengthening the Renault-owned team’s grip on fourth overall, and Lance Stroll took the final point for Aston Martin.<filename>stella-core/src/main/java/br/com/caelum/stella/format/Formatter.java
