So I have an interview at 5:15 for a job I do not want. It is through a staffing agency Im using, and usually wouldn't care, but Im temping at a place for them now and they have helped me get work a lot. Anyway, I don't want this job and told them I wasn't too interested after I went to the first interview. But they pushed me to go back. So what can I do in the interview that isn't obvious to make them not really like me. LOL! Im not wearing a suite- Im dressed nice, but not in a suite. But i dont know if that will be enough. I know this is horrible! But I really dont want them to give me an offer! For one thing I'd ahve to be there at 7am. That means I'd have to take like a 5:30 train from long Beach! EW!!! And its working on a trading floor where they say its normal for people to scream at you. I dont like that! Ideas?????? Please!!! LOL!

show up late... when people do that for an interview at my office, they get sent home from the waiting room...

Hmm, that's a wierd situation.
How about asking for a crazy salary? or making your requirements outrageous...like vacation, benefit requests....
Just don't seem too interested..show up a little late....stress that your commute will be difficult.

See then they will tell the agency I was late. I need it to be something more subtle. Maybe I will act like I have a blah personality...and not talk much. LOL

If they offer you something just tell them that you have thought it over and do not think the job is suited to you. The idea of beig on the floor and being yelling at you is something that would make you uncomfortable. If you go in there trying to ruin the interview it could get back to the staffing agency and they may think twice prior to sending you somewhere else.

Start picking your nose halfway through the interview...
In all seriousness if they are looking for someone to work on a trading floor they will need someone with a loud personality. Maybe stick to short answers and speak really soft....
