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.

Yeth I want Thith jobInterviewed a candidate who got the job. Initially turned it down as our office was opposite a cemetery and he feared being posessed by spirits. He called back the next day saying he'd changed his mind. So'd we by then.
Another candidate who came in a spectacular lisp and a Jonathon Woss impedement (for anyone outside UK, it's where you pronounce Road Woad etc). As per normal we'd sent him a copy of a brochure of some of the software we sold on behalf of other companies before the interview and asked him to choose a product to do a presentation on. Unfortunately he chose our Risk Assessor programme. Me and my boss had to sit there for half an hour listening to the merits of Wisk Athethor, Health & Thafety and the Control of Thubthanthes Hazrdoth to Health amongst others....... made by the company Vithual Bithneth Tooolth
