Interviewed 3 people for a job today 18:30 - Dec 16 with 2401 viewsCheltenham_Blue

Was waiting for Jeremy Beadle to pop out.

1st guy answered every question in the formal interview with a powerpoint slide show. He literally had thousands of them, we'd ask a question and then he'd scroll through all of them to find one that answered the question.

2nd guy did his 10 minute presentation, and over ran by 15 minutes, even though I had warned him on 8 minutes that he only had 2 minutes left.

3rd guy announced his arrival by apologising for his outfit, but that he had flown in from Kazakhstan this morning and Turkish Airlines had lost his luggage.

I should write a sit-com

The first two sound desperate to get the job. It's tough out there at the moment. Did you consider either of them?

I had someone turn up 55 minute early once, that annoyed me. I guess to show he was keen and punctual etc but that was a stupid move really. You should assume other people might be busy and you'd be in the way. Sure scope out the office, go for a coffee but turn up 5-7 mins before.

It's not rocket science!

It wasn’t Kazakhstan but Kyrgyzstan - I knew you weren’t interested or paying attention. You can stick your job up your arse….sideways.

I interviewed people for a job in a non-TWTD role some years ago and realised nothing increases one's own confidence about one's own approach to interviews than interviewing other people. Not sure anyone was quite like your candidates, but we had people who, for a website job, had never so much as even looked at the website they'd be working on.

My wife knew someone who went for a senior role at Sony (a role he had absolutely no experience for) simply on the strength that he owns a PlayStation.

Look. It was a long flight and it was a choice between a clown outfit and a Norwich city outfit - which is essentially the same if you think about it

My fave was for an interview in Liberia.

BL. Can you tell me your weaknesses.
Candidate: I am idle.
BL. Any others?
Candidate: I am slow to pick things up.

Was an internal candidate too, who basically had told me he was thick and lazy.

Kicker being he was honest. Got another job where honesty was important too :-)
