My Embarrassing Interview Situations You Need To Learn From
I use to be ashame of talking about them, i guess am talking about them because am some steps up the ladder now.

The first was immediately after my service year it was a big one the pay figure (like i gathered) was mouth watering and i was already calculating what i will do with the money and at that time i needed money bad.
on the D-day i was ask to read a paragraph from a book and yours truly was shaking all over like a leave on water it was so embarrassing, it never happened to me before. Believe me, am very bold and good with presentations.

The cause
My head was calculating the pay and suddenly a fear of what will happen if i don't get the job gripped me

Lessons
1. Never count your chicks before they harsh
2. Go to the interview with a sport mind set i.e you either win or loss
3. Don't place all your value on the monetary aspect alone

My second experience was with a bank, i was just not prepared. I got the invitation a day before the interview
and a dress code was specified. I went in an oversized suit the top different from the bottom. The first thing the interviewer asked me was if am for the interview Embarrassed

Lessons
1. Always be prepared, do all you can and leave the rest to God
2. Get all the tips on dress code here.

You got it boy! Some of us have had to learn from experience and what a harrowing interview it was.

Must say the lessons you learned are good and i have tried to observe them pretty well.

Be kinder than necessary, for everyone you meet is fighting some kind of battle.

Well, i for one havent had a bad Interview Experience YET. They have all been pretty fine ans went well esp the last one, coz my boss made it so informal it was like we were having a conversation so i relaxed and spoke to him casually.
PS, dont go in tight clothes coz i went for one and the lady told the person who recommended me to go there that if i got the job i wd have to change my wardrope coz apparently my trousers were too tight on the other hand i thot they were fine.

I will share my experience of my lifetime embarrassing moment. When I am walking in the park with my friends. I saw weird duck swimming in the lake, and I get close to it. In the first place, I didn't know that it is just my imagination, and I feel in the lake and the bad thing happen my short with my underwear slip.
