LUZR4LIFE Posted April 17, 2010 Posted April 17, 2010 I just got a call from MicroCenter today and they have asked me to come in Sunday morning for some tests with other prospects. I have applied there several time in the 3 years I have been unemployed so I really hope I can get in. If I get in, I will be most likely selling my PC to get a car so I can get back and forth. Quote

ccl0 Posted April 18, 2010 Posted April 18, 2010 must suck when it costs more to print the money than the money is actually worth.. Quote
LUZR4LIFE Posted April 18, 2010 Author Posted April 18, 2010 (edited) Well I am off. I will update when I get back. Edited April 18, 2010 by LUZR4LIFE Quote
LUZR4LIFE Posted April 18, 2010 Author Posted April 18, 2010 OK, I just got back. The 1st thing they did was break us down into 2 teams and told us to build a system. I asked what the price limit was and a few other things and all we got was "I don't know". SO, I went with the HAF935, GIGABYTE GA-X58A-UD3R,1930, V8, SSD Corsair 750, 1tb black, XMS3 1600(3x2) etc. 1 guy on my team didn't know anything about PC's, the other guy was in his 60's. LOL. Any way, My team was picked for the best PC and all the employee's noticed that I knew what I was doing. So I got big ups for that. Then we had to take 3 tests, man I am so tired of asking question regarding firing and telling on people who steal. I mean really, who in their right mind will answer those question with a no.Depending on the test scores, I should be getting a call back for a interview tom. and if that works out a 2nd interview.I will keep you all informed as I get updated.

5eraph Posted April 18, 2010 Posted April 18, 2010 I'm glad to see that they recognize your skills. Too many places now have temp workers that need to rely on "the book" far too often for troubleshooting and repair. I hope they call you again. Quote
LUZR4LIFE Posted April 18, 2010 Author Posted April 18, 2010 Insider source (a new friend that works there) His boss said I was in the top 3 but wouldn't say anymore. Quote
NIM Posted April 19, 2010 Posted April 19, 2010 Insider source (a new friend that works there) His boss said I was in the top 3 but wouldn't say anymore.Was or are? I hope that you ARE in top 3. Quote
LUZR4LIFE Posted April 19, 2010 Author Posted April 19, 2010 Was or are? I hope that you ARE in top 3. I am in the top 3. I actually missed the managers call today by 10 minutes. Hopefully he calls me back. Quote
ccl0 Posted April 20, 2010 Posted April 20, 2010 is there like a special run-off between the top 3? maybe an obstacle course? Quote
LUZR4LIFE Posted April 20, 2010 Author Posted April 20, 2010 is there like a special run-off between the top 3? maybe an obstacle course? I think the 1 on 1 interviews break that down. Quote
LUZR4LIFE Posted April 27, 2010 Author Posted April 27, 2010 No call back yet. I called Friday and he said he would call me back. I am going up there today to get a few things, hopefully I can run in to him. Quote
