Was well prepared for it and got in there and just froze. Can’t even remember most of my answers. They wrapped it up after only 30 minutes. This was a 2nd interview for a position I’ve been working towards for a few years now.

I suck. I guess the good news is they were only interviewing one other person for the position, and we did discuss salary.

Who would have guessed a Mcdonald's interview would go 30 minutes?

Congrats baw.


But if it makes you feel better I’ve walked out interviews before feeling like I blacked out and sounded like an imbecile only to get a call back.

Was your answer to the standard “Talk about a time you overcame adversity?” question a spiel on BLM protests?

Keeping up the facade of looking for a job to satisfy UE requirements, eh?

You will likely be their diversity hire, so you couldn't bomb.

You weren’t qualified due to your white privilege anyway

Your lack of confidence in yourself is a direct example of why you hold the political views you do. You have no ability to stand on your own. You rely on others for everything, including your self confidence.

You're a sad little man.

I had an interview where the interviewer and I had to re-schedule it twice, then we finally caught up to each other and realized within 3 minutes that I was not at all qualified for what he needed. We ended up talking about the wording of the job description for about 15 minutes and wrapped it.

If you really want the job I would email him and apologize and say you were off your game and ask for another one. That’s all you can do
