Job Interview Fun
Just in case you thought you did poorly in a job interview, read these anecdotes from executives who actually encountered these situations during an interview:
"... chewed bubble gum and constantly blew bubbles."
"When I asked him about his hobbies, he stood up and started tap dancing around my office."
"Candidate said he really didn't want to get a job, but the unemployment office needed proof that he was looking for one."
"...asked me to show her the ladies room, saying that it would be where she spent most of her time on the job."
