If he can't spell my name correctly, what will he do with the names of of my guests? Plus, if he misspells my name differently 5 times, I can't even say he's consistent...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rejected a candidate for a middle management position after she had been interviewed by the Head of Department and I was doing the second interview, because she had her bluetooth mobile phone earpiece in during the interview and wore way too much perfume (I stilled smelled like a perfume shop at the end of the day).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Rejected a candidate for a sales position because he arrived wearing old jeans and a t-shirt.
