I have an interview tomorrow, my first since being made redundant a couple of weeks ago, which made me think....
What's the worst thing you've said / done in an interview? (and did you get the job??) |

At my current place of employment I was asked if I prefer "Chris or Christopher". To which I said "Christopher as I think Chris is common", completely forgetting that the HR manager who was interviewing me was called Chris.  |

I answered the question "so Sarah, tell me about yourself" with "my friend's got a horse" followed by the longest silence in the history of man while we just sat looking at each other.
I did not get the job. |

Did you not think it an odd question when your name is Robert?  |

I went out with my friend and her bf last year.A guy in the pub we was in tried to grab my bum so I called him a pervy freak and my friends bf also had a go at him.
Weeks later the same guy was sat in the reception area of my parents company waiting to have a interview 
All as I said to my mom was that guy tried to touch me weeks ago in the pub.I didn't say don't employ him but I knew that what I said played a part in his interview not lasting very long. |
