I remember talking more about spiritual stuff and martial arts than about IT knowledge during my last job application
I never really had to actually get any references. My resume listed my previous employer, and the projects I've worked on, and that was more than enough to land me an interview. Once you get that first interview, the rest is just talking talking talking
Same rly.. And suddenly I've got a job interview myself next Monday didn't even apply. Makes me feel guilty towards those without a job
