  • "... stretched out on the floor to fill out the job application."
  • "She wore a Walkman and said she could listen to me and the music at the same time."
  • "At the end of the interview, while I stood there dumb-struck, went through my purse, took out a brush, brushed his hair, and left."
  • "A balding candidate abruptly excused himself. Returned to office a few minutes later, wearing a hairpiece."
  • "... asked to see interviewer's resume to see if the personnel executive was qualified to judge the candidate."

  • "... pulled out a Polaroid camera and snapped a flash picture of me. Said he collected photos of everyone who interviewed him."
  • "Said he wasn't interested because the position paid too much."
  • "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 I start? What's the salary?" I said, "I 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."
  • "Candidate said he really didn't want to get a job, but the unemployment office needed proof that he was looking for one."
