If it's not the "where do you see yourself in five years time" question, it's the trick questions they throw at you to make them feel superior. Tell us about your worst job interview and the most unsuited candidates you've seen. BTW: Please don't use the question board to send messages to each other. It makes the whole thing unreadable for everyone else.

Whilst looking for a new job, I enrolled with an agency. I told them that I was only interested in jobs that:
1. Were in central London
2. Paid more than my current job
3. Were not for public sector or charities
So, the first interview they sent me on? Zone 6, 3k below my current job... for the RNIB. First question:
"Are you allergic to dogs?"
I said "No... why?" It turns out that half the people working there were blind and that one of the problems I was likely to face was replacing PCs that the guide dogs had pissed on.
I have never tried so hard to fluff an interview.
