It would depend on your definition of terrible. I've gotten offers out of interviews that I didn't think were great, but I wouldn't have called them terrible.

I will tell you this, every interview I went to in which I got the job, I was not dressed in traditional interview clothes (suit). And there have been interviews I thought went really well.. And never heard back from them... If that helps.

You're probably overthinking it and didn't come off as bad as you think

I got a job where I was absolutely sure the interviewer didn't like me or at least picked up on the fact that I didn't feel too good about him. I was shocked to be offered the job. There was a very palpable awkwardness and vague hostility there in the initial interview. I needed work so I accepted and managed to outlast him too. It was a great day when he quit. Win!

Relatively respected. It's a job I went to grad school for.
Phone interview which was supposed to be 30 minutes max
Lasted 9 minutes total
There was supposed to be a round of questions at the end from the 6 people on the other end.... no questions were asked.

Felt very off.




Sorry, bro. I was going to come and throw some optimism your way, but this doesn't look good at all. I hope it still works out.

Do you know it was terrible? I've thought it was terrible and still gotten the job only to find out they thought I was great.

I interviewed with a company a few months ago and the first part went great.

Just so happened the VP of NA Sales was in town and interviewed me for the second half.

It was terrible and I'm pretty sure I blacked out at one point. Might have drooled a little.

Got offered a couple weeks later.

I ended up taking the job but only worked there a month. Too corporate for me. Resigned the day the VP came back in town.

I've always left an interview feeling that I bombed it. I've never been out of work, so I guess the answer to your question is all of them.

I just got out of interviewing an applicant. Absolute waste of my time.

He totally bombed.

You proved you are efficient and can complete tasks in less than the allotted time. Congrats.

Did you feel as if all ground that needed to be covered was?

Of course it did. They interview people every day and you interview semi-occasionally. Their comfort level would exceed yours by miles.

Next, you go into the negotiation phase. Expect a lowball offer and go from there.
