This is a question Job Interviews

If 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.

Not really the interview, the whole 24 hours!
Ok, 2 years ago I was getting through my interviews to get into uni. One day I worked till the evening to get my grade from an A to about an A by improving my sketchbook. My teacher told me to take it with me to tomorrows interview and he'll mark it when I get back.
So theres little ole me dragging my bloody great A1 portfolio and sketchbook outside college to get a taxi when along come thes chaving bastards, pull out my sketchbook dimanding £20. I couldnt chase them cause my portfolio was so bloody heavy.

So heartbroken i went home, reporting to the police which latter found it ripped to shreads a few days later.
Anyways, I had an interview the next day so I had to get up very early with puffy eyes to get a train from h'pool to lincon that took ages, drag portfolio to uni and go into interview room (the size of a cupboard). They kept asking about my back up work (the stuff that was nicked) and I felt a fool. oh and I asked many questions which the prospectus said were true.
"work experiance?" NOPE
"trips?" NOPE
what a shite uni. I was very peed off and went of to by a bitch bag before making the 4 or so hour journy home.

Bastards, got in but had no intention of going after that episode

Oh and one of my uni interviews after Id babled on ages about why i wanted to go to Northumbria university in Newcastle.
"what other reasons do you want to come here?"
"Um...the buildings are nice...?"

I didnt get in
