Okay, if we are talking about nightmare interviews...
I was interviewed by a huge company that was in the process of moving to
Colorado. I went to the interview and was shocked to see 13 very young
people (all under 30) sitting around a conference table. Some asked
questions, most didn't know what to say. When I saw all those people, I make
an instant decision to not work for a company that had so many chiefs. I
wondered, "With so many chiefls, where's the Indians?"

I was once being interviewed by two people (at the same time) and one of
them fell asleep on me -- heavy lunch.
