For those who have attended interviews, there are moments where it becomes very embarrassing. At that moment, you want the ground to open and have you swallowed. What was that moment? How did it go? Did you get the job eventually? What were the lessons learnt? Share with everyone. 1 Share

In 2011 my first interview made me realise my comical talent. The whole interview turned into comedy. Ceo of the company ( the coy is now very big) asked me wat i currently did. Well my mum was into hajj travel tins den and i used to assist. I answered the madam i currently work for mummy. Madam ceo burst into laughter , her hr manager and d oda panelist followed suit. In my mind i was like mogbe o. Hr manager asked do u stay alone or (Ceo interrupted he stays with mummy). Anoda round of laughter chai. Went home sad 72 Likes 4 Shares |

Got to an interview without my resume and when they asked me for it I just stared back blank faced My throat was dry I wanted to explain that I assumed they should have it then as I stared speaking spit flew from my mouth onto the face of the HR staff as she jerked backwards her cup of coffee in her other hand spilled alll over her white suit and she screamed because it was hot and she fell backwards onto the glass table which shattered I got up and left in a hurry and endded up crashing I to the glass sliding door and it broke to pieces 70 Likes 4 Shares |

Mine was not an embarrassment, more of an anger. HR and Manager have my CV already. HR asked, how old I was, I responded 25. Manager asked is that your football age? I responded 'yes'. Na so the man vex and sent me out o. I was like (in my mind) you were playing with me and I played back, now you have right to vex? nawa for this people sef. I got the job after much begging the HR after everyone else had been interviewed. 21 Likes 2 Shares |

One particular one stood out. it was with a very big airline, we got to the "why do u want to work with us" line. I started of by letting them know how they have been consistent over the years, becoming the largest airline within a short time frame. went on to tell them how I aspire to add value in whatever environment I find myself, made instance of how I was able to add value in my school, and I am talking about one of the best institution in the world. my speech was so perfect and well rehearsed, in my mind I was like "I have killed it". One of the panel member out of nowhere just said "my friend, don't bullsh**t a bullsh*tter, do anyone else have any question for him", they all said No. "That will be all, we'll get back out u" I just sat there for like 5 seconds unable to move. 18 Likes |

I never knew my job was going to be at apapa. It was an oil and gas company. A major one. The HR manager asked me if I would like to work at apapa. I said no that the traffic there is something else. I even went ahead to ask him what is wrong with the V.I office. Lol did I get that job? You know the answer 6 Likes |
