Now to stop another thread from being derailed I will lift the bits that are doing the derailing to here so we can continue to chat about them (RhoDoDenDron faints)
Now on this thread http://forum.tribalwars.co.uk/showthread.php?23538-Barbs-Spread-TB-Kilinl-Cows-an-Stuff we had some talk about you would be an idiot to post your TW skills (sorry Meechan your born with abilities my bad) into your CV.
Or would you?!
My current job is as a trainer and whilst this keeps me amused and horrified in equal measure I did have to attend an interview even though was an internal job placement.
So there is me facing the Big Fromage and the Head of HR and having given my 15min mock training session I am then grilled as to my suitability for the role.
"Tell me about a time when you have had to motivate colleagues or a group of people to get something done where time and resources are tight" says the Big Fromage.
Now I didn't explain about the merits of 100% commitment in taking down K45 on UK3 nor the techniques used to prise HC out of some surly tribemate low on iron when a snipe was needed and all I had to my name was a scout name Benjamin. Nor how to deal with Locutus of Borg when he was posting in the tribal form and upsetting folk or any one of the 100's of task that need good people skills.
I did though talk about setting clear goals (like writing ARRIVAL in caps so folks know when to click) and how different motivational techniques work with different types of folk some like to be given task and others spoon fed their role. Others need constant encouragement whilst some like to be given the facts and left to get on with it.
Infact TW did help me answer the question as skills (sorry sorry born with abilities) although I didn't mention TW nor whip out my axe and threaten to bury in their head unless I got the job (Gunboat diplomat me what can I say)
So does TW mirror life in certain ways? Would drawing on your experience in TW help you in a job interview or what could be the very unfortunate outcome!
Discuss!
