One of my friend had an interview w/ a gas company, and all of a sudden, the rep asked him "So what do you think of water?"

he was silenced.....

so do companies really do that kind of stuff during interviews? what kind of stuff have you guys gotten before?
 
I was asked out on a date...but I have a hunch that wasn't involved with the job...considering it happened 4 days later...but I just decided I'd pretend it got asked in the job interview for comic relief.

 
I wasn't asked this, but my boss was talking about it today. Apparently someone here asked a potential employee what his favorite artist is. The water question, and the artist question would be easy answers for me. Asking me what my dream job is stumps the hell out of me.

That's easy. Earn millions of dollars doing nothing. Oh yeah, and doing two chicks at the same time.

My response has always been "vacation." Good for a laugh, but I don't know if it helps. And I don't think I'd have fun doing that 24/7.
 
My parents real estate agent was asked " if you went home and saw an elephant in the backyard what would you do" he said he'd sell it to teh zoo.
 
Not something I got asked in an interview, but something an an acquaintance got after answering a question about stress a little strangely. "Are you suicidal?", he said it completely threw him off his game and he tanked the rest of the interview because he was trying to figure out what he did to make the interviewer think that he's suicidal.
 
I applied for a dispatch position for the city of Arlington, and two questions on the questionnaire for the polygraph had me scratching my head.

They were:

1. Have you ever abused a corpse?

2. Have you ever had sexual encounters with animals?

And your answer was a big YES?? :Q


 
A friend of mine was interviewing with the CIA and they kept asking him about pr0n. They asked him the following questions (mind you, he was hooked up to a lie detector test the whole time):

"Have you ever watched pornography?" "Yes."
"Have you ever watched pornography on the internet?" "Yes."
"Have you ever clicked on a link that advertised 'Teens'?" "Yes."
"Have you ever knowingly viewed child pornography?" "No."
"Do you have any pornography on your computer at home?" "Yes."
"Is it possible that you have ever viewed child pornography and not known about it?" "Well, yeah, I guess maybe."
"Is it possible that some of the pornography on your computer at home contains minors engaged in sexual activity?" "I seriously doubt..."
"Answer the question, please." "Maybe, yeah. I don't check their IDs."

It went downhill from there. He was like, "But when I was 18, those were my peers. Why would I want to see a 40-year-old have sex? They kept asking him about child pr0n and such and accusing him of all kinds of things. He said he kept his cool at first, but he started getting VERY offended after awhile. They basically said, "Look, we have a reputation to uphold and we can't have a child pornographer in our organization. We have to ask these questions to see what end of the spectrum you're on from 'never watched porn' to 'biggest child pornographer in the world.'" He was like, "Well, I'm on the end of the scale MUCH closer to the 'never watched porn' side."

Before you judge him, realize two things:

1) He TOTALLY isn't that big of a pr0n fan. I'd be surprised if he had more than a dozen small clips on his computer.

2) They were only interviewing him for a graphic arts position. He was just going to design brochures for them to hand out at career fairs and such.

They never called him back.

Wait - so that means that everybody who gets hired by the CIA has never watched porn? Now I'm worried about our CIA . . .

 
Holy cow the CIA are crazy.

Anyway, the interviewer asked me to tell him a joke.

The joke sucked hard 🙁.
