Agency rings me up with a glowing candidate, tells me that he's a mechanical engineer.
Me "Why the f*** would a mechanical engineer want to be here doing ............., he'll get f******* bored in one day"
A "He just wants to branch himself out into a diffferent field"
M "I have 30+ applicants a week that are mechanical engineers yet they wouldn't even know what a f******* spanner is, let me guess, he's Indian?"
A "Yes, he is a matter of fact, and he's a young lad"
No shit, they must give out ME degrees over there in corn flake boxes, it seems to be the go to trade for any CV.
I have offered him an interview but I can guarantee he will come with his own set of rules to follow and hours of availability and then won't rock up on day one if I do hire him.
Fortunately I'm close to filling all roles.
