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.

Interview in NottinghamI had an interview for a job I really didn't want for some crappy rent a car company in Nottingham, I got lost, was recovering from a bout of the flu, and generally not at my best.
They kept me waiting for about three quarters of an hour whilst they dealt with the previous candidate (who was so friendly with the interviwer lady that they must have gone to the same school or something) During the interview the woman grilling me came out with the calssic,'Use five words to describe yourself'... oh fuck, I'm thinking, and I'm thinking and there's this big wall of silence, so I say the first word that pops into my head, 'Indecisive!'
I knew then I hadn't got the job.
