Alright! Remember to mind your Ps and Qs. Dress professionally, act professionally, tell yourself a joke or something humorous before you go in so that you have a smile on your face. ( I always say something to PARKER that makes me smile)
Look them in the eye. And thank then for taking the time to see you.
NINJA MIND CONTROL!
"I appreciate you taking the time to meet with me."
"Thank you for considering me for this position with your company"
With these two sentences we are implanting several key "mind splinters"
I appreciate you, Thank you, your time is valuable, you are considering me for the position, and the "your company" bit is an ego booster

Most importantly though, sabotage all other candidates.
there are no other candidates!!! PARKER!!! ELIMINATE THEM!!!
no actually there are no other candidates because Volk wants to be the very best...like no one ever was <insert rest of pokemon song here>
If you are courteous. on time, professional, polite and friendly with everyone in the company from the moment you walk in the door.
Remember everyone there is quite possibly the final decision maker.
The old woman trundling the wheeled garbage cans could be the owner's mother in lay. You never know.
Treat everyone like a million bucks.

If you were a tree what kind of tree would you be?.
I want to be the oak tree in the front yard
that shades the house in the summertime... and has a swing on one of the lower branches for the kids to play on..

Or a nice Sakura tree as well. I like those. Preferably either around Himeji Castle or a nice secluded area with a decent view.

giant redwood
and so in the job interview sense this is the wrong answer.
why?
because the giant redwood answer means you have a bloated sense of self importance. giant redwood tress are huge and menacing and not really good for anything....
The question is actually "what kind of person are you?"
giant redwood says "I want to be tall and well thought of, without actually accomplishing anything, or doing any work"

Any that grows in water, like alder or something.

/temple rub
also the wrong answer in the interview scenario. Isolation, doesn't work well with others, only thinks of himself and what he wants...

I'm interviewing you for a job and I say something dumb like the tree question...

I don't think it's a surprise to anyone that:
1) I hate interviews
2) I don't answer analytical questions well as I don't treat them as analytical questions
3) I hate analytical questions
4) I have an artificial tree
5) People suck
6) I should probably seek professional help
7) Hmm I used "I" too much so this one is all about everyone else. You're all wonderful people.
8) Except Girlboy
