Went to an interview around two weeks ago and the woman interviewer was nice but the man was so rude
He insulted the fact i do avon calling ut door to door sells and how does that even pay and something about shuting doors in face
He said why are you even here
When i said i was friendly he said
Your face is scary you dont like friendly you terrify me

I could tell the woman liked me but he didnt and it made me feel horible when i left

The woman called me today and said she wanted to give me a test run which i am surprised about im going tmro there as i forgot everything about pay ect but im sure the pay was 16k 40hours

Now including the above i have 8 years exeperience in reception n admin i was last on 21k

I hadnt worked for two years due to my childs sickness
Now i can work but i was doing avon so there is a gap on my cv

Would you take this job?

On my phone so dont mind me grammar please Smile

Go for the trial - you have more to gain than loose?

For all you know he was "testing" you and could be ok.............only one way to find out!

So update
Went in there and that prick was in there with his attitude again, i forgot the womans name and when she came outside she told me and of course he had to say something, "how could you forget her name you spoke to her yesterday"
She didnt remind me of her name on the phone and i was shocked after his attitude i even got the job.
Then he walked out and said he is going to leave us to it

I told her i will get back to her at 6
She said she is the manager but he is the marketing manager

Dont think i am going to take it, plus is 45 hours which is more than i was looking for, for 16k
I think i will be in contact with him more than i know and he clearly gas an issue with me

More hours, less money and working with a massive twat? It's a no brainier really unless you're totally desperate.

I think sometimes people forget an interview is a two way thing and that the candidate is also assessing the organisation.

Good luck for the next one.

I would accept but in a letter, and would state very clearly the interviewers conduct was bizarre, OTT for a stress test in an interview, and not appropriate for every day at work.

Moving yep defo if she asks as well i am going to tell it its because i cannot work with someone like him

Not for me, even if I could tolerate this arsehole and his gob, its the hours and pay that put me off. I'd go with your gut instinct and decline it.

I hope you get the Spa job, then let her know for sure it was him and his nasty ways that put you off accepting the job. He's a companies nightmare surely, he's setting them up for some law suits they way he treats women.
