rule of third x recruitment
I made an advertisement on today's ST and newpaper. Its cost about $60 for just that few lines of words.

But i got results.

IT has been months since so many people called me in a day. Easily around 30 plus i would say. They started calling me from 10am all the way till 8pm.. phew..

Using the 1/3 rule, 10 of them were not applicable i have to shoo them off. For some of them i was nice enough to tell them 'i dont need you!' whereas for some i was so mean to give them false hope 'i'll consider first, will call you back later!". Just so fun trying different method to turn them down... :p

Ended up only 20 people were told to come down for MY interview.
But of cos, using the 1/3 rule. Only around 7 people turned up.

I guess i can finally understand why every company needs an interview. It really tell those people 'hey! i'm the Boss down here, you better show respect', and the feeling of people looking desperately at you is really very shuang.

I can roughly recall the names of those people i've interviewed today off hand and wat they did. But due to privacy reasons i wouldn't share much. Scolded myself for not using more varieties of method to turn them down, was super nice to turn them straight on their face on the spot.

Then once again with the 1/3 rule, i only managed to get only 2. These 2 are not really perfect i would say. But i'll just have to make do. Lets pray those who promised to come down for interview tml will do so, hope lah...
