An interview in a public space like a cafe? I don't think that is fair for the would-be employee or the others there. Why not try to interview in an outdoor space - it could make for a good way of getting to know the person in a different way to the norm. Good luck - especially to the candidate....

Whether you can or can't is not the point. It's not a neutral place and why should other guests, who want a social chat or to read a book or just sit quietly, have to put up with someone who is straining to be perceived in the best possible light - interviews are stressful and unnatural so having the added threat of someone overhearing your earnest and over-embellished replies isn't fair on anyone. Do it in a park or somesuch - you could use it to get a better measure of someone.

Thanks to all those who replied!


Plough and Kanella good suggestions - but reading the latest Covid guidance, apparently you are allowed to meet with a non-bubble person in the outdoor seating area of a pub or restaurant ( but not inside).


So in the light of that could anyone add to the list of suggested places?



PS @Nigello just to re-assure you: I appreciate your concern for the interviewee but just to clarify this is NOT a job interview, it is an informal chat with someone who has agreed to contribute a few anecdotes for an article.

      Decision 2 April - Proposed Development - The Sidings, Railway Rise, SE22

      By Dogkennelhillbilly · Posted

      The private sector is not going to build a significant amount of social housing. Everyone is very keen for *everyone else* to subsidise construction of social housing. I take it none of the objectors to this scheme was suggesting putting up council tax so Southwark could build more social housing...? Social housing isn't going to appear in serious numbers if the state doesn't borrow money and build it.

      Tesla at Belair House

      By Michelle. · Posted

      They must be really desperate to collab with Tesla. Honestly, it's not even the worst thing they've done. I've noticed these sex events happening in the last few months at a place that's supposed to be a restaurant and venue. I was planning my wedding there and was appalled by the setup for those events. When I discovered what was going on, I was disgusted by how they were using the same rooms as 'playrooms' where families are supposed to eat. The hygiene and safety concerns are just unacceptable. We really need to come together as a community to put a stop to this! They're destroying a sacred, Grade II listed building, and it's just not right. The owners need to be held accountable for their actions. It's time for us to stand up and protect our heritage and ensure that these spaces are used appropriately, especially when they should be serving families and the community.   sex events vid.mp4 sex events videe.mp4 Literally promoting it on their Instagram! Only just taken down after scrutiny.

      Anyone experiencing even greater issues securing a GP appointment with Tessa Jowell GP practice?

      By trinidad · Posted

      yes, which properly explains why they responded to me on this occassion, as i included the CQC in my response. I have spoken to the Health Ombudsman, and they feel the regulator is more suited to the issues I have raise for more than a year now. welcome aboard. its great to have you on the thread. so sorry you are also experiencing issues. has this been addressed as yet?

      Tbh most Tesla owners are people who are concerned about the environment and have purchased accordingly- but mr nut job has soured their purchasing- so I actually sympathise with them being associated with such an awful man. But to actively promote the company given the knowledge we now know about him makes utterly unacceptable.
