13. "I was interviewing a candidate for an IT manager-type of position. He told me that he had been fired from his last position. Before I could inquire as to the reason, the candidate added, 'Funny thing is, the same day my boss fired me was the same day he decided that he needed a punch in the face. '" 14. "I asked a guy what his greatest weakness was. His face looked like he was concentrating really hard, and then he said, 'Is that a trick question? I hear you guys do that to weed people out. ' I tell him no, and he continues thinking … only to tell me that 'I don't think I have any weaknesses. ' I still encourage him to come up with one, just because at this point I want to just see what he says … and he tells me, 'OH! Being on time! '" 15. "I was introducing myself in the interview, saying that I had been there eight years as a Python developer, and then the dude interrupted me to explain how much he hated Python and why it sucked. " All posts have been edited from Reddit for length and clarity.
I kid you not, her first 'skill' listed was: Pretty. " – tornwings 8. "I ran an interview for my Valet job in college when the boss was away for 2 weeks on vacation, and essentially had a questionnaire prompt that I was reading off of. Me: 'Do you smoke? ' Him: 'Smoke what? ' Me: 'Cigarettes? ' (upward inflection) Him: 'Oh, no. Not cigarettes. '" – Lilgherkin 9. "It wasn't so much what she said as how she said it… I went to a job fair to hire interns, and this young lady came up to my table to ask about the program. I looked down to glance at her resume, and when I looked back up, she had her thumb in her mouth. I asked about her work history and skills, and she answered all my questions while she sucked her thumb. Sad thing was, other than her unprofessional little habit, she was the most qualified person I saw that whole day. " – captainmagictrousers 10. "someone else in an interview asked 'what excites you?. ' she said 'men. ' had a kid(early twenties) come in for an interview bc someone he knew worked here.
they've ever received in a job interview. The worst questions to ask in a job interview: Do you regularly drug test? How often would I be able to leave early? Is it possible to try the job for two see if I like it? For an engineering role: Is there any math involved? I'm not very good in math. How soon could I take paid leave? When do I start? What questions should you ask? Asking questions is your last opportunity to impress your employer, Hays' managing director, Nick Deligiannis told Yahoo Finance. The best question you could ask is one that shows interest in the role, and a high level of motivation to succeed in it. That could look like this: "What results would constitute success in this job? " It could also look like: "Who do you think would be the ideal candidate for this role, and how do I measure up? Is there anything that you think is missing from my skillset or level of experience? " Now read: 3 things employers are looking for in your job interview Make your money work with Yahoo Finance's daily newsletter.
"Mine would have to be the guy that came in wearing a motorcycle helmet. Instead of taking it off, he just flipped the visor up during the interview. " — Ryan Tweedy at 5. Eating and interviewing? She can multi-task. "Not a recruiter but I am a restaurant manager. We were opening a new location and doing interviews. Woman comes in for a management position. During the interview, she reaches into her purse and pulls out a bag from Wendy's and starts eating. The other manager tells her to put it away and she tells him it is okay, she can multi-task. " — Mynameisinuse at 6. Applied for a promotion, got fired. "I once sat in on an interviewer's debrief for a large organisation where you need professional skills. They were open to recruiting internally for a new position at a higher level, so a few people already in the organisation at a slightly lower level applied and were interviewed that day. One candidate performed so poorly in the interview and demonstrated such a severe lack of skill, not only did she not get the new position, they decided to have a private meeting about whether or not to fire her from the job she already had.
etc. So I totally blooded, but they were teasing me 1 hour long and at the end they told "sorry, time is over" and that was the interview. So of course it was my weakness that I could not find the solution and I can totally understand that they were not choosing me for this position, but I'm feeling really uncomfortable because of two things. First of all I had the feeling, that they were handling me really as a biorobot. They were not really interested in who am I and what's my preference or experience or whatever. On the otherhand I still think, that if I had have 30 minutes alone thinking about this problem I would have been able to find the solution, but not in such a stressed situation. And I really think that I have a good knowledge in the field they are working and I'm feeling upset that they gave me other chance to show it, only this one task. What do you think about that? Did you have any similar experience? And in general I think I have the problem, that if I'm working somewhere I'm usualy getting a good feedback regarding my work from my boss and my colleagues, I'm getting always new opportunities and I can always achieve my tasks, most of the cases without any external support.
Some interviewees took it to the extreme and even broke the law in pursuit of a job, while other exasperated employers confessed their biggest pet peeve was a candidate turning up late for their interview. A large number of employers revealed that applicants had turned up with one of their parents - some of whom had even tried to sit in on the meeting. One employer said he'd heard of someone bringing drugs to an interview, commenting: 'Guy dropped a bag of methamphetamine while taking something else out of his pocket at an interview. ' While another candidate turned up drunk, with one user recalling: 'A colleague of mine called this guy in for an interview. He didn't show and about 2 hours after he was due in, he called and said he'd been hit by a car. Colleague decided to give him the benefit of the doubt and they arranged another day. The guy turned up drunk. ' 'Twenty-something chick with an impressive looking resume but then she showed up with her mother in tow, and actually expected her to come into the interview, ' another recalled.

I react to worst job interviews while sharing a couple of experiences.
10. "I interviewed this lady once for a customer service specialist type position. She referred to herself in the third person throughout the entire interview. Example: 'Tell me about a potentially volatile interaction where you needed to remain calm and professional. ' To which she responded: 'Well at XYZ doctor's office, this lady came in and said she was upset about her bill, so Mary just told her to calm down and that Mary would help her figure it out. '" 11. "I was auditioning a tenor for a paid singer's position in the church choir – an excellent group of singers, mostly professional. His singing in the audition piece he chose was flat. When I asked if he could correct the pitch problem if hired for the job, he said, 'It's good enough for church. Who cares if it's accurate? '" 12. "This was a person applying for a chemist job at a state-run crime lab. Interviewer: "When was the last time you purchased, possessed, or consumed illegal drugs? ' Applicant: 'Uhhh, (looks at watch). Like what time today? '"
1. Texted his mother. "Oh god, I have a million. Most recent was a guy who filled out his application via texts from his mother. He would take a picture of the question on the app and she would text him back the answer. He took an hour to fill out a two page basic application. " — kibara at 2. A flatulent applicant. "This one however really took my breath away, literally almost. Now I've had people swear, cry, laugh, burp, make phone calls, leave the room so full of BO that we quarantined it off for over an hour. This person, took the cake however. Mid-way through our interview, in a fairly serious moment, this person's body decided it was time to expel some excess air, no he didn't burp. Now this was loud, extremely audible, in so much as the receptionist asked me a question about this "noise" after the interview. My candidate continued on like nothing had happened, no smirk, no "oops" or excuse me… nothing. I am rarely lost for words but this one stumped me. " — Dan Nuroo at 3. Acted like he knew Bill Gates.
She (the interviewer/my staff) quit soon after, citing "disrespect" and "lack of opportunity to grow" as her chief reasons for leaving. I felt bad for her; she was suited for the position she had and might have done well in a leadership position. I don't actually know all of what happened in her interview, but the director told me "at one point she rambled on for 10 minutes about how never really knowing her mom made growing up question I asked was about discipline and redirecting subordinates... " Yeah, that was a weird experience. Different employee, interviewing with me for a position as a house manager of one of the facilities I directed... I ask: "What would you say your greatest strength is? " Her: "Well, I'm terrible at math, I hope that won't be a problem... " Later, after I hired someone else, I asked her if she was open to some suggestions for interviews. She said yes, and I told her that she should never under any circumstances reveal weaknesses in an interview and always stick to strengths, especially when a question specifically deals with strength.
