Ever got a the job with an poor interview?

Just wondering have any of y'all had that kind luck.


I interviewed for a job Wednesday morning that would have definitely changed my life. Left the interview feeling like it could of went better and thinking I could have said this instead of that etc. Only thing I got going for me I think....are the questions I asked after the interview. (Interviewers said they were good)

And not mention I was 8 mins late for the interview. The recruiter gave me the street "Farm road 1006" but in reality the street is "FM 1006". So I put "Farm road 1006" in the gps and it took me way off course before I realize I wasn't going the right direction.

And before you say I should have left early. I left my home 70 mins before my scheduled interview, the ride was only suppose to be 30 mins at most. Giving myself time to prepare once more right before the interview.

Ahhhhhhh I hate my life right now

I once was conducting interviews and was getting a whole bunch of the look how great I am a folks applying, I was literally bored to death with the bunch. My next interview was a funny guy and he said to me point blank "I really won't have to work that hard doing this will I" I thought to myself this guy has a pair. Hired him and he did a great job for me

Wow I would never say that in a interview. As an interviewer what did you particularly look for knowing that all was said from the interviewee was probably bs?

At one point I hired someone plain dumb who wasn't even trying, but we needed personnel. He was only here for training, and then left

When I interview(and got the job) at the community college I couldn't stop hiccuping, it got so bad I began to cry, but my resume and flatbook saved me. Man I was so horrified, afterwards I tripped in my heels, skinned my knee. Lol, memories...

OP, I'm sorry that you feel your interview may not have went the way you wanted it to.

Whenever I've had an interview scheduled, I would always try to do a "test run" to the location the day before so that I knew exactly where I was going.
