Worlds' Worst Job Interviews

You'd be amazed at what people "really" say and do at job interviews, so below I have listed a "lot" of what goes on in the interviewers office during his sometimes very short time with a new job applicant. Note: these are all "factual" accounts of what has taken place as reported by some of the "top" personnel executives at some Major American Corporations.

AN Applicant Did The Following During An Interview:

Pulled out a Polaroid camera and snapped a flash pictutre of me. Said he collected photos of everyone who interviews him.

Balding canidate abruptly excused himself. Returned to office a few minutes later, wearing a hairpiece.

While I was on a long distance phone call, the applicant took out a copy of Penthouse and looked through the photos only. Stopping the longest at the centerfold.

During the interview, an alarm clock went off from the canidates' briefcase. He took it out, shut it off, apologized and said he had to leave for another interview.

Said he was so well-qualified (that) if he didn't get the job, it would prove that the companys' management was incompetent.

He took off his right shoe and sock, removed a medicated foot powder and dusted it on the foot and the shoe. While he was putting back the shoe and sock, he mentioned that he had to use the powder four times a day, and that this was one of those times.

Stretched out on the floor to fill out the job application

Brought her large dog to the interview

Chewed bubble gum and constantly blew bubbles

Canidate kept giggling through serious interview

She wore a walkman and said she could listen to me and the music at the same time

Applicant challenged interviewer to arm wrestle

Asked to see the interviewer's resume to see if the personnel executive was qualified to judge the candiate

Announced she hadn't had lunch and proceeded to eat a hamburger and french fries in the interviewer's office

Without saying a word, canidate stood up and walked out during the middle of the interview

Man wore jogging suit to interview for position as financial vice president

Said if he was hired, he would demonstrate his loyality by having the corporate logo tattooed on his forearm

Interrupted to phone his therapist for advice on answering specific interview questions

Wouldn't get out of the chair until I would hire him. I had to call the police

When I asked him about his hobbies, he stood up and started tap dancing around my office

Has a little pinball game and challenged me to play with him

Bounced up and down on my carpet and told me I must be highly thought of by the company because I was given such a thick carpet

Took a brush out of a purse brushed her hair and left

Candidate asked me if I would put on a suit jacket to insure that the offer was formal

Said he wasn't interested because the position paid to much

An applicant came in wearing only one shoe, she explained that the other shoe was stolen off her foot on the bus

He came to the interview with a moped and left it in the reception area. He didn't want it to get stolen and stated that he would require indoor parking for the moped

Candidate said he really didn't want to get a job, but the unemployment office needed proof that he was looking for one

He whistled when the interviewer was talking

Asked who the lovely babe was, pointing to the photo on my desk. When I said it was my wife, he asked if she was home now and wanted my phone number. I called security

She threw up on my desk and immediately started asking questions about the job, like nothing had happened

Pointing to a black case he carried into my office, he said that if he was not hired, the bomb would go off. Disbelieving, I began to state why he would never be hired and that I was going to call the police. He then reached down to the case, filpped a switch and ran. No one was injured, but I did need to get a new desk

Asked if I wanted some cocaine before starting the interview

Watch what you say and do during those "JOB INTERVIEWS, because you never know, the next one you read on my site, could just be "YOURS"... I'll be waiting for it(smile)


May The Force Be With You

A policeman pulled a car over and told the driver he had won $5,000 dollars in a seatbelt competition.
"What are you going to do with the money?" asked the policeman. "Well, I guess I'm going to get a drivers license," he replied.
"Oh, don't listen to him," said a woman in the passenger seat, "He's always a smart aleck when he's drunk." Then the guy sleeping in the back seat said,"I knew we wouldn't get far in a stolen car!"
At that very instant there was a knock from the trunk and a voice yelled out, "Are we over the border yet?"



An Engineer and a Manager

A man is flying a hot air balloon and realizes he is lost. He reduces height and spots a man down below. He lowers the balloon further and shouts, "Excuse me. Can you help me? I promised my friend I would meet him half an hour ago, but I don't know where I am." The man below says, "Yes, you are in a hot air balloon hovering approximately 30 feet above this field. You are between 40 and 42 degrees N. Latitude, and between 58 and 60 degrees W. Longitude." "You must be an engineer," says the balloonist. "I am," replies the man. "How did you know?" "Well," says the balloonist, "everything you have told me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to make of your information, and the fact is I am still lost>" The man below says, "You must be a manager." "Iam," replies the balloonist, "but how did you know that?" W"Well," says the man below, "you don't know where you are, or where you are going, you have made a promise which you have no idea of how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. The fact is you are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but now it is somehow my fault."

Snowballin'

The boss of a big company needed to call one of his employees about an urgent problem with one of the main computers. He dialed the employees' home phone number and was greeted with a childs' whispered, "Hello?"
Feeling put out at the inconvenience of having to talk to a youngster, the boss asked, "is your daddy home?" "Yes," whispered the small voice. "May I talk with him?" the man asked. To the boss's surprise, the small voice whispered, "no."
Wanting to talk with an adult, the boss asked, "Is your mommy there?" "Yes", came the answer."May I talk with her?" Again the small voice whispered, "No."
Knowing that it was not likely that a small child would be left home alone, the boss decided he would just leave a message with whoever was watching over the child.
"Is there anyone there beasides you?" the boss asked the child. "Yes," whispered the child, "a policeman." Wondering what a cop would be doing at his employees' home, the boss asked, "May I speak with the policeman?" "No, he's busy," whispered the child.
"Busy doing what?" asked the boss.
Talking to daddy and Mommy and the fireman," came the whispered answer.
Growing concerned and even worried as he heard what sounded like a helicopter in the background, the boss asked, "what is that noise?"
"A hello-copper," answered the whisapering voice.
"What's going on there?" asked the boss, now alarmed. In an awed whisper the child answered,
"The search team just landed the hello-copper!" Really alarmed now, concerned and more than a little frustrated, the boss asked, "Why are they there?"
Still whispering, the small voice replied along with a muffled giggle: "They're looking for ME!"
