An arrogant rude job seeker.

Posted: 23 Jul 2011 01:18 PM PDT

Have you heard a corporate guy refer to another as very arrogant? How did you decipher that? There is something that people who have achieved status adopt easily because of the kind of security they posses and here I mean financial security. It is commonly known as self actualization and they live happily because of their status. If you listen to some individuals in our society speak, you will appreciate the kind of confidence they posses, this is what is commonly known as 'corporate arrogance' in the world of finance and jobs.
Can a job applicant posses it? Oh Yes he can. How? The first thing you need to realize is that this is not a rule or regulation, it is just a mindset and no one will impart it in you but yourself.?
