HP Wroclaw
I’ve been pretty excited about this potential job lead as in Intern for HP in Poland. The first phone interview went great. The second phone interview was ALL in Germany. Y-I-K-E-S ! I was very happy with my listening comprehension but I made (at least) one significant error. The interviewer asked “Do you have any experience in Buchhaltung?” I said “Yes, of course.” Then the interviewer said, “Would you care to elaborate?”
My mind was running circles trying to recall what Buchhaltung meant. Alas, my brain wasn’t quick enough and I was forced to ask “Could you care to elaborate on the word Buchhaltung?”

going to leave me in suspence? whats Buchhaltung? some of us know ALOT less than you do :P
oops ... sorry ... Buchhaltung means Accounting. Since I admitted to knowing the topic before knowing the word, I supported my claim with my vast accounting experience I gained 15 years ago in DQ. I guess two wrongs dont make a right.
