Friday Funny July 24, 2020 Snappy Job Interview Responses

Happy Friday!  After a little break, the Friday Funny has returned.  Let’s wrap up a work week with some snappy answers to interview questions.

Enjoy!

I was once asked in job interview if I could perform under pressure. 

I said no, but I can do a pretty good Stairway to Heaven.

I was once asked in job interview, “where do you see yourself in 5 years?”   I said, “in a mirror”

I was once asked in job interview about punctuality.  I said I thought it was important to speak clearly and politely and it how vital it was to use proper grammar in speech and writing.

I was once asked in job interview, “What would you say is your greatest weakness?”  I said, “Interpreting semantics of a question but ignoring the pragmatics.” The interviewer asked, “Could you give an example?”  I said, “Yes, I could.”

I was once asked in job interview what my previous job was.  I said that I had been an Alien Hunter.  The interviewer replied, “But Aliens don’t exist!”  I said, “You’re welcome.”

I was once asked in job interview to describe myself in three words.  I said, “efficient.”

I was once asked in job interview what my greatest weakness was.  I said, I have been told that I can be condescending, that means I talk down to people.”

I was once asked in job interview about my background. I showed him my phone, with a photo Mt. McKinley.

My recruiter told me a joke about work. I laughed, but in fact I didn’t get it.

I once had an interview for a job as a farrier once. I was asked if I had ever shoed a horse. I said, “No, but once I had to tell a donkey to go away”.
