From a broken leg in reception to a python on a Teams call, I’ve seen just about every kind of IT interview disaster. I wrote up the worst of them, exclusively for Free-Work.
The surprising thing is that it’s rarely what candidates say that sinks them. It’s what they do: dressing inappropriately, sitting on the floor for a video interview, asking for adjustments and then not turning up, or letting the pets do the talking. And the one nobody recovers from? Talking down the job or rubbishing the recruiter.
If you’ve got an interview coming up, it’s a quick read, and it might save you from becoming my next example.
