That's so good. Laughing a lot. Perfect answer for those useless questions.
Fuzzykitten777
As someone who has done a ton of interviewing for my company....I could totally see any/all of these happening.

This is awesome

#8 is genius. I'm using that next interview.

He applied to 42 jobs

This will definitely help with my interviews.

This pleases me

Oh wow these are really good!

As someone who's looking for a job that isn't shit tier labor, these resonate with me.
rex314
I recall seeing a post from the author of a programming language, lamenting that he doesn't have the experience required in a job ad... :>
rex314
(As in, the job ad required more years of experience in the language, than it had existed; Sadly I don't remember who/what language it was)

Is the ultimate question really "Why did you apply here?"

Your comics are fucking incredible dude.
PaulTomblin
Been out of work for 6 months, and now I want to use these in an interview if I ever get an interview.
visorian
Does anyone actually plan anything more the a month in advance? I'm pretty sure it's just corporate bullshit pretending you care about that
DrTacticalKeyboard
Sorta? I mean it's constantly shifting and doesn't consist of daily plans but its more like looking at several paths and where they may go
imbitteraboutit
Dont need to be pretty sure. You are 100% correct. Even planning 5 years ahead, the world changes on a dime anyway and 5 years is far away.
pokebug666
Does saving for retirement count?
OnlyTheLonelyImgurians
around 13 I decided I wanted to die before I turned 30 since that was the age I associated with "should have your life figured out". I'm 38.
JHawke
Sometimes I plan out my day, and then all hell breaks loose and I get reminded why I never plan out my days... or vacations... or anything.
TresusIbor
#6 Was actually a good answer and tension breaker. I mean unless they NEEDED years of experience, that was fine.
johnnydarkside
Impress and entertain. Helps leave a lasting impression. I always try to make sure to make them laugh at least once.

Keep it in your pants
kekoakai
These somehow infuriate me.
CottonTheClown
The answers or the questions?
BojanglesTheFlyingCar
Ibecause you work with someone that was hired just by giving shitty answers like this and is a horrible worker and now you can't get rid of
CottonTheClown
Hey I've got one of those
imbitteraboutit
Must work in Europe. In America, we fire people for fun... or profit.... mostly profit.
ElynaerDeiros
The company I work for does this, I'm British. They say there is "no work" to do (basically a redundancy but they cheat the system for it.)

ThaiMaiShu
I don't understand what you're trying to say
UpvoteFairy3001
I think that he's trying to say, you're fired.
DrTacticalKeyboard
As someone who is still looking for a job I find these funny.
WeirdUncleMike
Perseverence is key, we all started somewhere. Once you manage to find a job and relax a bit, finding the next will not be as difficult. GL
CottonTheClown
But not like ha ha funny?

I just got one yesterday, hang in there
HorsefaceBeeguy
Same here.

Right there with ya. Graduated in April, and am currently seeking mattresses.

I just got a job, too, after being unemployed for 2 months. My highest prospects (and the job I landed) came from Linkedin. Look there.
MerryMortician
It took 3 months of rejections etc but I recently started at a promising company. Research resume trends to stand out and keep your head up!
Ketheres
I got lucky with my second application just recently. Sure cleaning bars isn't the best job ever, but it pays the bills well
TresusIbor
Oh yes. If you can get some sort of research internship, even some two month gig like I did, slap that shit on your resume!
imakesoft
Those are rookie numbers! Mine took 7 months.
MerryMortician
I know I was a lot more fortunate than some. I can't imagine being unemployed that long. I felt like shit even in my relatively brief time.
TooStronkkk
Good luck yo. Make your resume/cover letter stand out. Just get into the door
TodOberhaus
Me too, here's to hoping that the new year brings better luck.
Lurkernomore7
Hire a coach! They can be helpful.

The key to the flaws /faults /weaknesses question is to turn it into a humblebrag. "I'm a perfectionist" "I can't cum unless I make you cum"

as a Database admin "I'm lazy, and a procrastinator -- so I automate everything possible" interviewer's eye's light up.
PeopleSeemToHaveLongNamesOnImgur
Nah, I think they see through that anymore. I think it's best to answer that by saying what your weakness is and how you work around it(1)
PeopleSeemToHaveLongNamesOnImgur
Example: "I'll have trouble getting you off with my penis so I'll use my mouth a lot."
asm80dfa8sdfj
or "I'll have trouble getting you off with my fingers - lemme know who did it best so I can cut their fingers off and put them to good use."
redrumridesagain
Great, now I'm tempted to use these when I go for an interview.
daltonrow
I just went to an interview, and I smacked myself in the head reading this now, because the guys who interviewed me would have laughed fosho
badthaught
As someone who's job hunted a long ass time... there's something satisfying about filling out an application and being snarky about it.

I have a joke interview (If salary isnt Good enought (i already have a job) but they might offer more) in 2 weeks after Christmas
DrTacticalKeyboard
This I must hear
uberleet
its been 2 weeks, did you try any of them?
stuartsparadox
For the love of God don't. I have interviewed people that gave these answers. Never hired any of them.
imbitteraboutit
I think he wanted to troll the interviewer.
Simbody1
I’d only give these answers if i feel the company thinks too high of itself, you know? “why do you think you’re worthy of working for us” ..
stuartsparadox
That would make sense
ElynaerDeiros
Literally this, it should be a mutual, "you need me, I need money" thing, like if a company was like this I'd just walk out.
ElynaerDeiros
(mostly cos I'd never land said job if they were like that, if I thought I had a chance I'd stay of course, a job's a job in this economy)
