It is at least 400-500 pages of text you must read & answer the questions to....questions like: Go thru the yellow pages & pick 3 business's you would like to work for: ring them & tell them WHY you think you should be working for them, (even though you may have no experience in that field of employment). You should also quote over the phone to them, The obvious reasons why you should be working for them & the improvements you could achieve for their company by working for them. After one does that, you answer the yes/no question: Which company thought about hiring you??

In this paperwork were also crosswords for you to do....all words related to job seeking of course. Apparently this is highly motivating to get you 'in the mood' for job hunting, or in their words: A warm up crossword.
I just love artful job creation - LOL all these business's now have to employ a full time receptioness to handle the calls from the undead, i mean the unemployed - very clever

I love that psychobabble stuff - i went for a job at the general many many years ago - like 30 of us in a room filling out 4 hour pscyche evaluation paper - million multiple question bizarro crap - some damn weird questions LOL - just to get a blinkin factory floor job - you would of thought we were trying out for a submariner position or an airline pilot or something - that made has me laugh to this day when i think of it - no offence to gm workers meant - i even have a few as good friends
