to see if the personnel executive was qualified to judge

At
the end of an interview, one man went through the

individual pulled out a Polaroid camera and snapped a
flash picture of the interviewer, stating he collected
photos of everyone who interviewed him. |
|

While
the interviewer was on the phone, one applicant took out
a copy of Penthouse and looked through the photos only,
stopping longest at the centerfold. |
|
During
an interview, an alarm clock went off in a candidate's
brief case. He took it out, shut it off, apologized, and
said he had to leave for another interview. |
|
A
phone call came in for a job applicant from his wife.
His side of the conversation went like this: "Which
company? When do I start? What's the salary?" When
asked if he was still interested in conducting the
interview he responded, "I am as long as you'll pay
me more." (Later found to be a scam to get a higher
offer.) |

Pointing
to a black case a man carried into the office, he said
that if he was not hired, a bomb would go off.
Disbelieving, the interviewer began to state why the man
would not be hired and that the police would be
contacted. The man then reached down to the case,
flipped a switch, and ran. No one was injured, but the
desk was destroyed. |
