    And I'm nervous as fuck. The Target lady called me during lunch today and we arranged for an interview Wednesday at 2 PM. Any tips to land this job? And also do we have any Target employees know if they drug test?

    There is probably a good chance they drug test. Maybe check their website about that?

    Anyways good luck with your interview.... the only piece of advice I have for you is to try to not act and FEEL too nervous. Go in their thinking "why the hell WOULDNT they hire me?????!!!" and act with that confidence (but not cockiness....) ;)

    Yeah get someone else's if you can... its not like probation where they are gonna stand there and watch you pee....

    Wear nice slacks or nice jeans... not dress pants but not old, beat up pants either...

    and a plain shirt or a collared shirt or something. nothing fancy just NICE.

    It depends. Every now and then a job will ask you right away something like "so can you start training next Monday"? (or something)- and more often they will say they will call you soon.... In which case you should wait a couple of days and call them.

    I interviewed for an industrial job and they watched you while you pee. I terminated the interview when they told me that was the procedure.

    So do you think that I should take some of my friends piss just in case they give me the job on the spot? Or will they test me at some later date?

    I would make sure your shoes are neat and always shake their hand when you meet them and thank them for the interview and shake thier hand again when you leave.


    and smile. look them in the eye.


    It used to work for me.

    :)

    You're right it's so important to imbue an air of confidence, even If you don't feel it because you're nervous.

    yeah I missed out on a really super job... I was one of the top two..... I never got it, and am really bummed.


    I quit a good job.


    I have an education in something I never will use again.



    I'm broke now.
