The Honest Interview
by Rachel Feeny-Williams
“
A hilarious satire of and Human Resources management practices in the information technology sector with and the level of discrimination and misogyny that permeates even when –and especially when– technologies are used to create "transparency". Today it's data and surveillance, will truth serum be next year's management practice?

In this world the truth hurts, if I'm being honest. And Rachel Feeny-Williams proves this without a doubt in this delightfully twisted take on corporate interviews. One character cannot help but tell the truth as she reveals all sorts of company misogyny and sexist practices instigated, of course, by those in power who will never be forced to tell it like it really is. That's what middle management is for. The satire is laid on thick, but appropriately so. Great roles for 2 women who most likely will forget just how good they are, if the men have their way.

Sometimes the less said in a job interview, the better. That’s not the case in Rachel Feeny-Williams’ clever satire, in which she skewers high-tech corporate culture, particularly the “boys club” aspect. As an interviewer under the influence of a truth drug holds nothing back, audiences will laugh and cringe at each revelation. A great two-hander for female actors.
