“Anonymous” reports that she was hiring a Junior Web Coordinator for a medical non-profit. Here is why the candidate was not hired:
When asked in the interview to list his weaknesses, the male candidate puzzled for a few moments–as though he could not think of any–and started to answer, “Weakness? Huh. . . I’m not sure. . .”
After thinking hard, he finally perked up and responded brightly:
“My abs!”

Not Hired user, “Paula Plenty,” reports that a candidate for a customer service phone representative position talked to each of the three people with whom she interviewed about how important it was to have the ability to watch a portable television in her cubicle. The candidate sealed her “not hired” fate by following up her interview with a letter that included:
I know you can understand that being allowed to watch TV helps keeps [sic] us sane during the downtime and giving good customer support really only takes one ear. The customers on the phone don’t have to know that I have a TV and I like to watch TV at work because it doesn’t hurt my work, I have a mini TV that I like to keep on my desk and watch with a white earplug. My other ear can hear the phone and listen to customer support issues. You have to trust me that it isn’t a problem even when very dramatic story is happening on my shows.
