There are far more applicants than jobs, so anyone assuming that they can get to the top of the list and get special treatment because of some self proclaimed grand experience or qualifications, are in for a ""rude"" awakening in this job climate. Most employers and job services don't have time for the snooty when there are so many applicants to choose from. Dress for success, be patient, be courteous, and hope you stand out from the crowd. I'm watching people get turned away at fast food restaurants. This is NOT the time to be brash and over-confident.
