I went to an interview today at Hasbro for a guest host position. They were interviewing a lot of people so I didn’t get my hopes up. Also, since this was for a kids show, that exactly isn’t the demographic that I feel I am appropriate for.
They started with a 30 question “test”. Here are 2 sample questions,
1. At the Battle of Bunker Hill, who commanded the famous order, “Don’t fire until you see the whites of their eyes.”?
2. Which famous model appeared on the first George Magazine wearing a George Washington wig?
I got one of those right..... cut to the chase, I got 10 answers right and then was told by an employee, “We’ll get in touch with you.”
I was given the advice that a good, safe way to let out frustrations is to write down your thoughts. However, I strongly suggest doing this at home, not at work. I accidentally saved my "thoughts" to a public server named, "To What My Life Has Come". After getting laid off/ fired from a job that I hated in Boston, I packed up my life for new and exciting adventures. I was bound for Los Angeles.

ReplyDeleteThey wouldn't tell us the name of the show. I probably won't ever find out anyway!
