"I shot a man in Reno just to watch him die." Seriously though, how do you answer this? I'm curious as to how you responded... I wouldn't blame you if you just hung up on him at that point. Less

My answer to this question was not clear because I was taken aback by it. I contined with phone interview, and was invited to face to face (no offer). Less



"Did that answer your question? It was very drawn out and not very to the point - but did I answer it?"

"Yes, thank you." --> The question I asked was "work-life balance". And as stated above, he didn't specially answer the question, but answered that there is no work-life balance. More so, not listening to candidates when they ask their own questions. So, yes, you answered my overall question of company culture. Less

Why do you want a part-time job?
1 Answers↳
When you get an offer you should understand this place is very (!) entry level. They won't negotiate anything. If you try to get a more favorable deal, they'll withdraw the offer & seek someone else. Also get everything in writing when you get an offer. I was offered a term of employment during my intial phone interview but they wouldn't commit to it in writing. My impression is that if they hire you part-time they will try to get extra hours out of you without extra pay. If you're working part-time, you may need a second part-time job to cover bills. This means the C2C job may conflict with yourother job. I was told the turnover rate is very high & it seemed to be implied that the employer doesn't expect you to stay long even in professional roles. They give no benefits if you come in as a part-timer & pay hourly. Some part-time jobs including my last one provide some benefits. They won't pay part-timers for the extra hours you work at mandatory special events. They don't seem to value thinking employees either. My impression is they want a pair of hands to churn out paper to impress senior managers as opposed to be effective in accomplishing the stated goals of the charity. Caveat: The office space is a windowless airless back room of sorts in a warehouse. Less
