Job Interviewers Reveal The Worst “This Person Isn’t Getting The Job” Moments, Show What Not To Do (30 Posts)

RED FLAGGGG

My mother in law was schizophrenic (with other mental illnesses that were never correctly diagnosed) and most of her delusions and hallucinations were religion based. That being said, this guy could do alot of damage. There's nothing wrong with wanting to share your religious beliefs with others as long as you respect their boundaries and whether they want to discuss it or hear it or not. You're not going to convert or teach anyone who is annoyed by you shoving it in their face. You also need to know your audience. Religion is not something you should be trying to talk about with someone who is very mentally ill. I personally know how badly it can impact them and it's not something to take lightly.

Over zealous Christians like this remind me of Amway addicts.

Any kind of excessive religion is a red flag.

I worked at a mental hospital and worked with a couple of these people who had decided that they would "cure" the mentally ill by selling them on Jesus. They didn't get fired, but left out of frustration as their proselytizing didn't freaking work at all to help anyone.

That flag is so big and red that Stalin would fly it above the kremlin

That's not a flag. That's a f*****g sail.

(How he lost his last job)

He could have wanted it clarified because he thought it was utterly inappropriate and wanted to make sure you agreed, why assume the worst? Also, what awards do you win for teaching??

We had one who didn't ask that, but when I was hiring for a tech to prep biology labs at a university, there was the fellow he did mention that he'd been a sports coach at the high school he'd taught biology at and had the coaching position "taken away from him." I have some training for how to spot potential pedophiles, and that set the alarm bells ringing. He was otherwise well-qualified and personable, and I don't usually Google candidates, but something did feel "off", so I looked him up. Boom! First hit was a news article about how he'd been discovered leaving a hotel where he was having a liaison with one of his female high school students. It hadn't come to trial yet. Innocent until proven guilty? We figured that should not apply if he were going to be around 3,000 undergraduates, some of whom were not 18 yet. We had to code the reason for not hiring, so we tagged him "not able to meet work schedule," since we figured he was going to be spending a LOT of time in court...

At least she's consistent.

I love that woman. The right answer, for everything.

The customer is always alight.

"Of course you should fight fire with fire. You should fight everything with fire."

I can't blame her with the difficult customers :D

Someone put a finger in my great-grandfather's face once and he bit it very hard.

But how? How comes one to touch a total stranger's face -especially in a job-interview- ?

Wonder if the manager also explained her choice to the moron and how long the moron kept their job.

Wow. She has the nerve. I wonder how long she lasted.

Eek! That's a shocker.

...what

This is pure karma for requiring the tests in the first place (unless perhaps the position requires someone to operate heavy machinery or something along those lines).
