Shattered. Heard the news on the way home from work. Had to pull over for about 15 minutes. Just can't believe it.

You know most grad jobs have a three or more stage process for the big places?

"Sport is supposed to be our escape from tragedy and life issues. Not the cause. That's why this is so heartbreaking."
Truth.

Watch out for commission only sales or companies that ask for ABN instead of TFN. They're dodgy and want to use you like dirt. But you might have to start there to get experience as I did.
Once you move past that its more interesting. You can start to apply real sales methodology.
When you master sales you can pretty much sell anything applying the same techniques, even with limited knowledge of a product.

Thanks.
Well I will see how tomorrow is and I'll know more after that I guess. I don't think this is one of those companies though.

Still can't believe it, feels like Hughes's been around forever but he's only 25, that's around the same age Michael Clarke started making it in the big time. Such a big future
And I can understand freak incidents at bat pad where you get hit in the heart and stuff, but a batsman facing up dying to it is just gut wrenching.

Also terrible news with Phil Hughes, especially given he was just 25. RIP.

From memory with KPMG I only had two really - application, got a call to come in, went in and did a written assessment, and two interviews with managers - so I suppose technically four, but three on the same day. Deloitte was four - application, phone interview, group assessment, partner interview.

Yeah sorry I was referring to that by my 'application' so really it's 3 and 5 respectively for the two if you count the initial info you have to give them.

A kid at our cricket club the other week got hit in the chest area/heart by a cricket ball, wasn't quick but he stood there after getting hit and said he was ok, then just collapsed, and came to about a minute later.
I'm genuinely shattered at the passing of Phillip Hughes, so sad and just feeling for his family, his mum and sister were there watching him, can't imagine what would've went through their heads when it happened. Sean Abbott too, not his fault but he will have this for the rest of his life, no one deserves that, I'd completely understand if he just walked away from the game.

Awkward moment when I don't have the original file of my KJ avatar saved. No more KJ avatar for me.
Had that for a good three or four years..

Was going to say, I wouldn't be surprised if he walks away. Wouldn't be able to bowl again in future without thinking about it, and it'll just eat him up. Some were saying it's almost worse in some ways for him because he now has to live with this.

I'll come up with a new one. I saved the avatar on my comp but apparently it's not the right dimensions or some s**t so I'd have to find the source file.

Yeah exactly. Don't know how he will be able to get back and start bowling bouncers again to intimidate the batsmen, is just a devastating position for him, can't imagine what he is going through, one minute he is a 22 year old on the rise and now his whole life is turned upside down.

Commission based role. Blah.
Give it a shot and see how it goes if I get through today, I guess.

It sounded like it. I did one for 3 weeks and I hated it. I know other people that love it though.
Experience on your resume is intangible though. You need the experience to build to the job you want. Go for it if you get it. Who knows, you might actually like it.
