What's your most awkward interview story?

Oh loads, when put on the spot with the question "If you could be an animal which one would it be" I said something like fly or rabbit.

A fly Amazing. Were you like.... a rabbit stuck in the headlights? What did they reply?

I have a friend who always seems to have awkward interviews.

He went to one where the interviewer's office chair was really low and my friend was looking down at him. My friend tried to adjust his to be at a similar height, and instead his chair slowly went further and further down during the course of the interview. In the meanwhile he acted as though everything was alright rather than laughing it off.

>This is a long read but worth it.
>I was 1 of 8 people to get through to the second stage of becoming an Engineer for a major British space company. Everybody (including me) was in their early-mid 20's, with exception of one guy, still in school, 15 years old!!! Props to him for aiming for the stars, quite literally.
>The assessment process consisted of a 1) group exercise with 3 of the other candidates and 2) an individual interview. Anyhow, me and 3 others were the first up for the group exercise, including a girl and the 15 year old kid.
>The group exercise room is FULL of assessors, top dogs of the course and the company.
>Really simple stuff, read the worksheet, come up with a solution, work as a team yada yada yada. I assumed the role as the leader and started dishing out jobs, I'll do this, you have this job, you have this job, I get to this kid who hasn't said a word so far, I just look at him and know something is wrong.
>At that second this kid projectile vomits EVERYWHERE!! All over the table, all over the props, worksheets, his clothes, the floor.
>The girl springs up screaming "I'm gonna have a panic attack, I can't deal with puke" and darts out of the room.
>The kid, puking as he walks, is escorted to the nearest bathroom.
>All of this occurs within seconds of it beginning
>Me and the other guy are just left in this empty room which is filled like an olympic swimming pool with puke, just like :l ...
>Kid stays the rest of the day, what a lad, mum brings him extra clothes, we do the group exercise again
>Mfw I didn't pass because I got parallel and series circuit confused in the interview room
