How A Friend Lost A Job Cos He Doesn't Know How To Tie A Tie by Nobody: 6:40pm On May 10, 2016
Untill the day I was shown the door because I used a customised facebook name, I had never taken the aphorism "little things count". Serious.

A friend of mine just came back from lagos and explain the "shocker" of his life to me.

According to him, there were 6 of them waiting to be interviewed, when it was his turn, he walked into the office confidently, waiting to screw the hr's intelligence. The first question the interviewer asked him is if he tied his tie himself, as a sharp guy he said YES.

Surprisingly, the next tin he heard is "pls remove the tie and re tie", he became dumb and prayed silently to god to change the hr's mind but it was unfortunate. He couldn't tie the tie properly and the hr told him to go and learn more before he starts searching for job.


I wanted to be surprised but I remembered what happened to me few weeks ago.

Pls, my fellow job seekers, be prepared to answer stupid questions when going for an interview....

Dnt be surprised when an interviewer asked you to show him/her how to check nitel's account balance

Yu form a tieknot when yu tie a tie
