【分享】面試中的異常行為

This list came to us as a survey of top personnel executives from 100 major US corporations--the question was about unusual behavior by job applicants. Whether they're real or not, it's a fun way to illustrate how not to behave.

Without saying a word, applicant stood up and walked out during the middle of the interview.

Applicant said if he were hired, he would demonstrate his loyalty by having the corporate logo tattooed on his forearm.
Applicant interrupted to phone his therapist for advice on answering specific interview questions.

Applicant had a miniature pinball game and challenged the interviewer to play with him.
Applicant bounced up and down on the office carpet and told interviewer she must be highly thought of by the company to get such a thick carpet.
Applicant removed a hairbrush from the interviewer's purse, brushed his hair, and left.
Applicant pulled out a Polaroid camera and snapped a flash picture of the interviewer. He claimed to collect photos of everyone who interviewed him.
Applicant said he wasn't interested because the job paid too much.
While the interviewer was in the middle of a long-distance call, the applicant took out a copy of a popular men's magazine and looked at the photos only, stopping longest at the centerfold.
During the interview, an alarm clock went off in the applicant's briefcase. He took it out, shut it off, apologized, and said he had to leave for another interview.
A telephone call came in for the job applicant. His side of the conversation went as follows: "Which company? When do I start? What's the salary?" When the interviewer said he assumed the applicant was not interested in completing the interview, he promptly responded "I am as long as you'll pay me more." The interviewer did not hire him, and later found out there was no other job offer--it was a scam to get a better offer.
Applicant arrived wearing only one shoe, and explained the other was stolen off her foot on the bus.
Applicant's attache case opened when he picked it up and the contents spilled, revealing women's undergarments and assorted makeup and perfume.

Applicant asked who the "lovely babe" in the picture was. When the interviewer said it was his wife, applicant asked if she was home now and wanted the interviewer's phone number. The interviewer called security.
Applicant threw up on the interviewer's desk and immediately started asking questions about the job, like nothing had happened.
Pointing to a black case he'd carried into the interviewer's office, applicant stated if he were not hired, the bomb would go off. Disbelieving, the interviewer began to state why applicant would never be hired and that he was going to call the police. The applicant then reached down to the case, flipped a switch, and ran. No one was injured, but the interviewer did have to get a new desk.
Applicant sits down in interviewer's office, leans back, puts his feet on her desk, and proceeds to tell her why he should have her job.
