Anatomy of a job interview

Things I probably shouldn’t have done in my interview:

• ·         Entered to Ravel’s Bolero
• ·         Immediately eaten all of the biscuits (there were 54)
• ·         Answered questions with questions. “Why do you think you would be right for this role? “ “Why do YOU think I would be right for this role?”
• ·         Picked up the interviewer on his grammar every time he used a preposition at the end of a sentence
• ·         Given a detailed analysis of how beating a hooker in Grand Theft Auto demonstrates the difference between waterfall and agile methodologies (Venn diagrams were included)
• ·         Asked the interviewer outside when I thought he said he did my mum (he actually asked what I did for fun)
• ·         Used interpretive dance for three of my answers
• ·         Recounted the story of how I lost my virginity without prompting
• ·         Used my Admiral Akbar impression in lieu of any qualifications
• ·         Spent the whole interview  trying to use the phrase “Banana Hammock” . And succeeding. Four times.
