Weirdest Job Interview Ever!

4 Comments

What is your weirdest experience in a job interview?

Well Yesterday which was Friday i had a job interview at Rebel Sport as a Department Manager, and coming from Coles Myer i thought that this interview would be a breeze. Let me tell you . . . some of the questions that i was asked where just plain weird.
There were the obvious questions that you would expect in any job interview such as:

  • Why do you think you are suited to this job?
  • What makes you different from the other people applying for this job?
  • What are some key ideas that you can bring to Rebel Sport as a Department Manager?

At this point i was thinking ‘YES’ i can answer all of these, and thinking soon it will be over.

But then . . . the weird questions came:

Do you watch T.V?

Do you have a dog and if so how often do you walk it?

He even asked . . . If you could steal anything from this store what would it be? I couldn’t believe it lol. Over-all the interview went fairly well but i couldn’t stop laughing to myself about some of the questions he was asking.

If anyone has had any interesting or just plain weird Job Interviews it would be great if you could share them with us, its a very interesting topic. Looking forward to hearing them.

North Korea will pay a very, very high price

I’m Adam, a new writer on The Whole Story and this is my very first post. You can find more about me at our About section of the blog.

In Follow up to Justin’s Post ‘North Korea’s nuclear weapons testing’ I was reading an article on Voice of America (VOA) News homepage and stumbled across a heading ‘US Envoy Says North Korea Must Pay For ‘Reckless Behavior’ and I couldn’t believe my eyes. I am currently in the process of joining the Australian Army and the last thing that I want is countries, mainly the Western ‘annoying’ possibly one of the most deadliest countries in the world, North Korea.

A senior US envoy arrived in South Korea to discuss a ‘punishment’ for Pyongyang’s nuclear weapons testing. The fears of a second nuclear test have encouraged the United Nations to strengthen there measures and called for inspections of all North Korean Cargo ships for any banned weapon parts.

How ever it then follows to say that China and South Korea and reluctant to interfere with North Korea in fear of igniting a conflict. So, is this a worry for the world when the two border countries of North Korea are hinting that they are not going to take part in the UN’s plans which involve North Korea’s neighbors?

Do we feel any safer?
