Somehow I don't think my interviewer would appreciate me recounting the time two blackout drunk chicks wanted to have a threesome with me >__>

Did you turn them down? That's mad impressive, I think the interviewer would be impressed.

I did, I didn't feel right about doing anything. They were pretty stone cold wasted.

I wish interviewers thought like you guys! I'd have people busting down my door to hire me.

When I was homeless, but I'm not sure they'd want to hear that either.

If it's a man, I can guarantee he will sympathize directly with that story. Just go for it. Honesty is the best option anyways.

Is this the kind of question they ask at interviews?

Because I literally can't think of an answer. I don't remember a single time in my life where I can say I felt that way.

This is a behavioral interview, which are apparently all the rage nowadays. Rather than ask you stuff about your past work experiences, they ask you about past situations or things you've had to go through to better understand and predict how you might handle similar situations in the future. There's a whole scoring system and everything. It's pretty ridiculous, but ya gotta do what ya gotta do...

I'm having a phone interview and they sent me the questions they were going to ask in advance. Probably because they knew it would be way too freaking hard to come up with something on the spot. This is the one I'm having the most trouble with. I have no idea what to say.

Just tell them your straightedge and you were tempted to drink when going through some relationship/family problems. But you resisted with almighty will power.

I think it will make a good impression!

It will work double if the interviewer is a CM Punk fan.

Tell them who you are. If you can bring me to my knees imagine what a lady of your high quality could do to a normal. You would be the boss within a week.

What would happen if you didn't have an answer to some of these questions because you just haven't been in the relevant situations?

Anyway for me probably the temptation to just say "f*** this s***" and quit physics to do quantitative finance and actually get paid

...well I haven't actually made the decision yet, but I'll probably stick with physics >.>

tell them that you were once on a boat with a bomb strapped to it, and were told that there was another boat with a bomb strapped to it too

and that each of you had the other boat's detonators

so you have to blow them up or they might blow you up

but you didn't, you threw the remote out the window

But if they've seen the movie they will know that you were a criminal!
