Weirdest Interview Process Ever
16 years ago
General
Yesterday, I applied for a job at a department store that I do not shop in and which may or may not be called "Century 21." Today, they called me for an interview.
The "interview" was conducted in a group of about 15 people, mostly women in their 30's, three men - two applying for security and one for the stock room, and me. The "interview" consisted of about 15 minutes of questioning and two and a half hours of sitting around making origami dinosaurs out of the backing of sticker name tags.
The questions consisted of such gems as "what's your favorite movie ?" "other than Century 21, what's your favorite store ?" and "what would you do if you won the lottery ?" My fellow interviewee's answers included, but were not limited to, things like "A Walk To Remember" and "Saks 5th Avenue." All the while, I cursed the economy and thought "Dear God, I DO NOT BELONG!!"
After about three grueling hours of this, all 15 of us were hired.
WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED!?
