As an "office Junior". I was 18, my second interview. I went there having read nothing on the job role, or the company.

So the interviewer asks me, why I applied for this role and I reply that I'm not sure because I don't know the position...

He then decides to take the piss and tells me that he is porn producer and asked if it was something I was open to... Embarrassed as I was, and young and stupi... I started blabbing about how I like porn and how I wouldn't mind being in a porno and such :rofl:

Worst and best interview I've had :mmm:

Been rejected from Asda. Slightly off topic - went to an interview (not the Asda one) and it was only when I left the interview room that I realised that all the buttons on my blouse had popped open and I was exposing my bra and the rest to all and sundry.

Didn't get the job.

This happened to me too. I left the interview and realised, I was so embarrassed. The company tried calling me a few times but I was so humiliated I just ignored them. Women's blouses should be designed better around the chest. :getmecoat:

It's not realistic that for an office job a recruiter will get off the rail and will start joking around about porn :K:

What if you had a voice recorder :K:

Well not everyone loses their sense of humour when in the office I guess... :dontknow:

And porn is a legit business, he wouldn't be breaking any rules, I was 18...

The interviewer clearly thought his time was being wasted after the first question was answered with the equivalent of: 'Huh? I don't even know what job I'm applying for so that's kind of difficult to answer'.

I applied for some 20+ jobs that week, I wasn't sure which one had called me... and they didn't even give me much details when they called me as well... just gave me the address and time :dontknow:

I also got rejected from McDonald's. I am not the best at interviews at the best of times, but I was geared up for a one on one interview and it turned out to be a group one and I went to pieces. I don't think I could hardly remember my own name... that was a bad interview.

It was as a Sales Assistant in some independent woman's clothing shop. I went up the desk to ask to apply for the job. They looked at me. They said, "Uhhh... no."

FINE
I DIDN'T WANT THE JOB ANYWAY

Pizza Expres just rejected me as they have better qualified people applying for the position of food runner.

Haha, it was through gumtree so I can't put my username :teehee:

Probably they thought that a guy with a degree doesn't need to be hired to brush toilets :teehee:

They are right. Every employer out there is basically begging you to work for them. :biggrin:

My first ever interview was for lakelands and the interviewer just went on about how amazing the boy she had just interviewed was. :rolleyes:

I never got it.

Had about a billion others though.
