Impression

He had heard that the agency had a reputation for providing high paying jobs.
He sent them a copy of his curriculum vitae and made an appointment. On the day, he put on his best clothes and turned up a few minutes early. He was determined to give the best possible impression. At the reception desk, the woman made a note of his attendance and told him to take a seat. She said the manager would be out to meet him in a few minutes. He sat looking around. It certainly looked like a high-class establishment. Moments later, the agency’s interviewer appeared and called him into his office.
Once they were both seated, the man explained. “As you’re new to the agency, I have to ask, what sort of work are you looking for?”
“OK. As you can see from my curriculum vitae, I do have an impressive skill set, I think my best fit would be to move straight into a senior role.”
The interviewer looked back down at the CV. He picked it up and began reading through it carefully, nodding slowly. “Yes, I thought so,” he said, adjusting his computer screen. “Just give me a minute,” he said, as he began tapping on his keyboard.
After a while, he said, “Here it is. This is a senior role with a most prestigious company. It comes with a high salary, a generous executive bonus scheme, a company car and an excellent medical cover scheme.”
The interviewee was speechless for a few beats, before blurting out, “Wow! You’ve got to be kidding!”
As the interviewer slumped back in his chair, he said, “Of course I am… but you started it!”
