i hate job hunting more than anything else in the world

[beaft]

me: i'd like a job, please

the person who gives out the jobs (actually an oversized march hare sitting behind a desk, dictating to a crow that taps out the letters with its beak):

“If Employmente ye do seek, Attend this interview next week;

Four tasks you must perform for me, And once that's done, a further three.

Pass the test, and twelve days hence, You may receive your recompense.

But heed my warning: if you fail, We'll send you naught but a stock email.”

[beaft]

if you think about it, much of the advice for job interviews is very similar to the advice for dealing with the Fair Folk:

come prepared. remember that the normal code of conduct does not apply here. the power is largely in their hands, so you must play by their rules or suffer the consequences

be very careful about how much eye contact you make

they will try to trick you

choose your words wisely, lest they be turned against you. don't lie - but also don't be completely honest. similarly, trust nothing that is said to you; it might be true in letter, but not in spirit, and is doubtless intended to manipulate

never apologise. an apology implies wrongdoing.

wearing specific clothing might improve your chances

reveal as little information about yourself as possible

if you please them, you may receive a Boon (employment)

I asked an ornithologist about this today and he said that they can't remember the nineties. "They're dumb," he said.

"But helping poor people should be voluntary."

And even when it is, people still have a problem with it.

A poet is a nightingale

Who sits in darkness

And sings to cheer its own solitude

With sweet sounds
