So, next week I'm starting interviewing for a new assistant, I bloody hate it, I'm sure I get more nervous than the candidate.
Anyone got any tips as to what I should be looking for?
Also anyone know someone looking for a junior job for shite money, let me know!

Someone who's enthusiastic, intelligent, confident. And if she's got big tits it's a bonus.
Blonde is good ;-)
When I did my A levels my law teacher was also a criminal lawyer, used to argue with him all the time about some of his cases, one comes to mind where he got a guy off for a stabbing, now obviously he didn't KNOW the guy was guilty, as he would have been able to defend him in that situation but if I had an inclination they may be guilty I'm not sure I'd be able to give it my all.
I don't hold anything against people that do that type of work as everyone is entitled to justice and a defence, I just don't think I'm cut out for it.
Yes, this is very much the case, although I'm sure it happens, some people hold money above morals.
Seriously, I often have to interview for second/third line support roles in IT - though I'm not often responsible for directly managing them the interview is usually someone from HR plus the IT director and me. I guess its slightly different in IT to what it is in law though. As I'm probably one of the - ooooh, I don't know, about four percent? - of people in IT who AREN'T bullshitters, I can generally spot a liar by their CV and sift them out - usually end up with three or four candidates who are about the same skill level and then see which one comes across as the most likeable, adaptable and versatile. If you're asking technical type questions I usually like to get them out of the way with first because it sets a tone for the interview - plus it's utterly pointless if you have a good ol' chat early doors, like them then find out they can't answer technical things they should know so would be ****ing useless at the job.
Just relax - despite what you might think they are DEFINITELY more nervous than you!
The other 40% is a typical office juniors role, post duties, making tea/coffee for clients, covering reception cover.
So need to find someone with a brain for working with me who also won't get bored doing the 'shit'
You know you will anyway mate!
1. Do you live in Essex?
2. Say 'Dave'
Sounds obvious but questions starting with who,where ,when,what and why always get a good conversation going as they are open questions and she will then feel relaxed as it gives her time to respond and you time to listen to her answers.
Always make notes as this also gives you time to think even if you are just writing down nothing important.
If this is the first time you have done this speak to a work mate or your manager and do a rehersal and ask your work mate how they felt this went.
Preparation is the key
Something to remember is fail to prepare prepare to fail.
Good luck

Still think you should base it on tit size
* What do they know about the job they have applied for ?
* Give him or her the. Difficult customer,client, work mate question.
* One totally off the wall question see ifthey are awake !
* A few techi questions, re risk etc.
* Most difficult previous task.
*Biggest achievement to date.
Then go for boob size .
Go for breast size and shape of arse
Not impressed.
Another lady who said she could only work when it was day light and that included geting to and from her home. Which in winter means she would have been part time. Thing was as this was a religous thing (strict jewish) there was no way to say she didnt get the job on those grounds. She was a darling as well. She tuned it down before i had to think of anything.
