I could write the book on hellacious interviews. Here's an example.
I was offered an interview with Readers' Digest for a web developer position. I drove over there and I had been directed to the wrong entrance gate - so I was flustered from the start. Security directed me to the right gate, and I went in for the interview. The interviewer told me that I would be "put in front of the Java Firing Squad" (direct quote) to determine if I could code in Java. I knew on the spot that RD wasn't the place for me.
The headhunter that sent me there then called me to say RD wasn't interested in me because I was "nervous". Uh, show me a job candidate who isn't nervous walking into an interview??
Meh. I have a much better job now.
