You should have said, why wouldn't there be a backup power supply?Originally posted by matt99 View PostCan anyone brighten my monday with stories of interview questions that made you want to reach over the table and punch them?
When I was going for a junior-ish role. I was asked
"in C#, will the code in the finally clause always run?"
I said "yes, I believe it does".
he said "WRONG. It will not run if the server has a power failure during the operation "
KNOBHEAD!
I was once asked an interview by a gorgeous female interviewer if I would have intercourse with her to get the role. 70 seconds later the role was mine!.Comment

Three worst interviews:
FT left me waiting for 45 minutes, I left
Reuters left me waiting for 20 mintues I was about to leave, interviewer then came and left me again waiting in one of their little coffee bars. Finally he came back and spent the whole interview playing on his laptop and winkberry, I told him I didn't want the contract.
Most recently, interviewer said he could be really aggressive and needed someone who could cope with that FFS!!! Aggressive!!!
