Interview #8: Is...is....is that a Palm tree?!

My 8th interview was  actually two weeks after I got the volunteer job from interview #7, in October, this interview I believe was on November 8th. It was a bit odd, since I did not actually apply for the job! I had set my resume on careerbuilder, in a way that possible employers would see them and if interested would email you information.

This is really only good if you want to get into accounting and  or sales... because I only got offers from banks and insurance companies! They were never really in my fields so I ignored them...
But this one I got, sent me an email saying they set me an interview without even talking to me first. It was just like "We like you, we've never spoken before but come to this interview!!!",
I went with it and went on the interview... the company was in a gigantic building, it was a really nice building. It was actually so big that they had PALM TREES AND A WATERFALL INSIDE!! I actually took a picture of the Palm Tree's on my phone.
When I got to the interview, it was not an interview. But a presentation, it had like 20 other people that were contacted by this company. The person there told us all what the company was about. (It was insurance for people 60+). He also said that they contacted people that weren't in their field, which is also why they contacted a Graphic Designer like me. Yes, because I love to do accounting.. derp... sure...
At the end of the presentation, they gave us a little worksheet to fill out and then we left. They said they would call whether or not they were interested, but they never called me. It MIGHT have to do with the fact that I forgot to put my phone number on the worksheet, but they did have my resume with my number, so I wasn't really sure if that was the reason or not! XD

Lesson Learned: Some places will contact you without your permission and schedule interviews without your consent; usually they find your email on sites like careerbuilder etc... Also, not all interviews are interviews! Some companies put you in a room with other people for a presentation and then if you're/they're still interested, they'll call you.
