It seems like a lot of people are taking this cat’s advice these days. I have ceased to be amazed at what people will do and say in a job interview. That is, if they ever make it to the interview. When I place an ad I always request a cover letter, a resume and references. That’s where we’ll start. Pay attention to the ad and give the person what they are asking for.
