How he rejected a bank job

He started his story by sharing how he turned down a juicy bank job.

Recalling the events of that fateful day, the 'writerpreneur' said he felt defeated immediately he got to the venue for the bank job interview.

According to him, this is because he was not having the best outfit.

"Immediately I stepped in, I felt defeated already.

"You know why; I wasn't having the best outfit.

"My shoes were filled with dust like a man that works in the quarry.

"My socks, hmmm! A story for another day.

"I sat down quietly waiting for my turn, he wrote."

While noting the male recruiter (one of the two interviewers) mocked his outfit, Chinedu described the interview as his best as he axed all questions thrown at him.

Chinedu also praised the interviewers for the successful interview as he thought that they made it easier for him.
