Is that Lubars’ office?

At one tiny little independent agency, I thought we were just having a little chit chat before we got into the interview questions. Nope, that was the interview. I got the job.

Small ones. An agency I used to work at would get people in for beers in the evening, let them hang out with some of the people they'd be working with, and if they got along the job was theirs.

Surprisingly, only one bad hire out of maybe 40 in the time that I was there.

2. I have worked seasonally in retail to make ends meet. Do I need to put this on my work experience when applying?
