Would you feel guilty or not care?

Question

I had a job interview. It went quite badly but I got the job. I was wearing quite low cut top and was a little flirty with the interviewer. I think this is the only reason I got the job.Should I be annoyed by this or just be happy I got the job? I feel kind of bad for the other people who went for it.

Answer 1

Is the person that interviewed you the same person that you'll be working for on the job? If not, don't worry about why the interviewer hired you...the interview may have gone better than you think, and your flirting may not have been as bad as you suspect.

If you are working for the same person that interviewed you, keep everything professional and earn the position that they have entrusted you with. Watch for signs that the individual may be expecting a little more than just work (i.e., meaning that he did think the outfit was quite low, and that you were offering something more than a fair days work for a fair days pay by your flirting). If you see those signs, let the person know that you are in a professional relationship and don't intend to date the boss. If he brings up the flirting or low cut top, tell him what you've mentioned here - that you didn't think the top was that low cut when you put it on, and that you weren't really flirting, but you were nervous and when you get nervous you tend to act in ways that are often mistaken for flirting. I would think that he will either understand and everything will be okay, or he'll find a way to terminate you rather quickly because he is looking for more then an employee.

Answer 2

As long as you can prove youself worthy, I wouldn't worry about it.

Answer 3

as long as you do the work a little flirtation is good for the soul

Answer 4

How you got the job isn't important. But now its up to you to prove you deserve it.

Answer 5

while at ur job, prove that ur deserve that job and that way it won't matter why you got the job in the first place as long as you are doing your best

Answer 6

The interviewer reacted to body language ... Usualy image counts for 60 percent.

Be professional,add value to their company and further your career.

Answer 7

I wouldn't go into an interview dressed in such a way or behaving in such a way knowing that I may get a job under those pretenses.

I have lost jobs to people dressed like this and my qualifications were greater, my motivation and attitude was great. The people that got hired were fired later simply because they thought they were clever and had to do as little as possible. This is where I believe strongly that equality goes out the window.

Don't make your employer regret hiring you.

Answer 8

i'd have felt bad but i'd cover up and do my best at work

Answer 9

Just don't make your employer wish he hadn't hired you.

;)

Answer 10

I have a another job for you.

Answer 11

that's a hard one. just ask them. if you really fell strongly about it and he did just hire you because you flirted with him, you could quit. it depends on what you feel.
