Job InterviewsIf 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.

Where To Start?As a life-long computer contractor I've had dozens of interviews - and I've got most of the jobs..
One of the silliest I remember was for Computacentre who were the lead out-source mob for TSB bank. Went along to the interview - had some bod from Human Resources ask me a few basic questions about myself and did I have any problems with long hours and working away from home and stuff like that. Then he said " I'll send my chief techie in to give you the technical interview."
So I waited - a little bit on edge. Techie interviews can be a bit daunting as you never know what the buggers are going to throw at you.
Wee fat chap wandered in. He looked over my CV and said "so you know Novell then?"
"Yes" I said.
"That'll do for me" Says he "can you start Monday"
Easiest techie interview I've ever had....
Cheers
