Not precisly job but it was for an internship.
This was the last question from in my opinion good interview from my part.
The interviever told me bassically: You know we wanted journalist students. You dont study that. Do you think we can provit from each other anyway and why?
The main problem behind that question was that I felt Like Needed to say something that wasn't already part of the interview and already said. A convincing infirmation that I didn't have.

That being said my husband works bassically as a personal managment for extern contractors. The stuff he had to deal with where crazy.
Someone tried to win a tender by saying they employ illegal workers so they are cheaper and can get more work done, because they dont need to take working conditions as strict.
Yeah they got reported and didn't win the tender.🤣

On a more personal level someone in an interview refused to answer questions that included answers from their CV and being unfriendly about it. They thought he had the info why would they need to answer that?

When I came and three guys were waiting for me. I sat down, and after a moment of silence, one of them told me: "We invited you because we wanted to see what a female software engineer looks like."

One of the moments when you don't really know if you should burst into laughter or tears :D

I simply left :D

Oh boy

Recently on a phone interview for a career advisor position for a college. When I was asked why I wanted the position?

I said something to the effect of getting their graduation rate from 74% to 100."

I lied their grad rate is 46% - so of the 2000 people that attend as freshmen only 46% of them will graduate. That's REALLY bad and it speaks volumes to many questions.

Obviously I didn't get the job but that's okay. I signed the job offer for another one the following day.
