The top personnel executives of 100 major American corporations were
asked for stories of unusual behavior by job applicants. The
lowlights:
-
Said he was so well-qualified [that] if he didn’t get the job, it
would prove that the company’s management was incompetent. -
Stretched out on the floor to fill out the job application.
-
Brought her large dog to the interview.
-
Chewed bubble gum and constantly blew bubbles.
-
Candidate kept giggling through serious interview.
-
She wore a Walkman and said she could listen to me and the music
at the same time. -
Balding candidate abruptly excused himself. Returned to office a
few minutes later, wearing a hairpiece. -
Applicant challenged interviewer to arm wrestle.
-
Asked to see interviewer’s resume to see if the personnel
executive was qualified to judge the candidate. -
Announced she hadn’t had lunch and proceeded to eat a hamburger
and French fries in the interviewer’s office. -
Without saying a word, candidate stood up and walked out during
the middle of the interview. -
Man wore jogging suit to interview for position as financial vice
president. -
Said if he were hired, he would demonstrate his loyalty by having
the corporate logo tattooed on his forearm. -
Interrupted to phone his therapist for advice on answering
specific interview questions. -
Wouldn’t get out of the chair until I would hire him. I had to
call the police. -
When I asked him about his hobbies, he stood up and started tap
dancing around my office. -
Had a little pinball game and challenged me to play with him.
-
Bounced up and down on my carpet and told me I must be highly
thought of by the company because I was given such a thick carpet. -
Took a brush out of my purse, brushed his hair and left.
-
Pulled out a Polaroid camera and snapped a flash picture of me.
Said he collected photos of everyone who interviewed him. -
Candidate asked me if I would put on a suit jacket to insure that
the offer was formal. -
Said he wasn’t interested because the position paid too much.
-
While I was on a long-distance phone call, the applicant took out
a copy of Penthouse, and looked through the photos only, stopping
longest at the centerfold. -
During the interview, an alarm clock went off from the
candidate’s brief case. He took it out, shut it off, apologized
and said he had to leave for another interview. -
A telephone call came in for the job applicant. It was from his
wife. His side of the conversation went like this: “Which
company? When do l start? What’s the salary?” I said, “l assume
you’re not interested in conducting the interview any further.”
He promptly responded, "I am as long as you’ll pay me more. "I
didn’t hire him, but later found out there was no other job
offer. It was a scam to get a higher offer. -
An applicant came in wearing only one shoe. She explained that
the other shoe was stolen off her foot in the bus. -
His attache [case] opened when he picked it up and the contents
spilled, revealing ladies’ undergarments and assorted makeup and
perfume. -
He came to the interview riding a Moped and left it in the
reception area. He didn’t want it to get stolen, and stated that
he would require indoor parking for the Moped. -
He took off his right shoe and sock, removed a medicated foot
powder and dusted it on the foot and in the shoe. While he was
putting back the shoe and sock, he mentioned that he had to use
the powder four times a day, and this was the time. -
Candidate said he really didn’t want to get a job, but the
unemployment office needed proof that he was looking for one. -
He whistled when the interviewer was talking.
-
Asked who the lovely babe was, pointing to the picture on my
desk. When I said it was my wife, he asked if she was home now
and wanted my phone number. I called security. -
She threw-up on my desk, and immediately started asking questions
about the job, like nothing had happened. -
Pointing to a black case he carried into my office, he said that
if he was not hired, the bomb would go off. Disbelieving, I began
to state why he would never be hired and that I was going to call
the police. He then reached down to the case, flipped a switch
and ran. No one was injured, but I did need to get a new desk. -
Asked if I wanted some cocaine before starting the interview
