funny college interview stories

One of my friends went to a college interview and was really nervous. He accidentally called the interviewer 'Mom' at the start. The interviewer just laughed and it broke the ice. My friend then relaxed and had a great interview.

A friend of mine went to an interview and accidentally sat in the wrong chair at the start. Everyone had a good laugh, and it actually broke the ice. He ended up getting the job too.

One horror story is when a student was asked a really difficult question about a complex theory right at the start. The student froze and couldn't answer at all. It threw off their whole interview and they felt so embarrassed.

Unexpected questions are common. For example, questions that are way out of the scope of normal prep. This can catch students off - guard.

There was this classmate who was always in a hurry. One day, he ran into the wrong classroom thinking it was our English class. He sat down, took out his books, and started answering the roll call. It was only when the teacher started teaching math that he realized his mistake. He turned so red and quickly left, which was hilarious.

Once, my roommate thought it would be funny to hide all my left shoes. I was running late for class and couldn't find any of them. When I finally found them in the microwave (of all places), we both had a great laugh.

Once, a candidate brought his pet parrot to the interview. The parrot kept interrupting by repeating 'Hello' and 'Pretty boy'. It was so unexpected that the interviewers couldn't stop laughing.

One story I heard was that a candidate was asked about the number of grains of sand on a beach. Instead of panicking, the candidate humorously replied that it was the same number as the stars in the sky that the interviewer couldn't count either. And they both had a good laugh.

There was this one time when a student was so excited for his college interview that he wore two different shoes by mistake. One was a sneaker and the other was a dress shoe. When the interviewer pointed it out, he just laughed it off and said he was trying a new fashion trend. The interviewer found it really funny and they had a great conversation about how being unique is important.

Sure. I once heard of an interview where the candidate accidentally sat on a whoopee cushion that was left on the chair by a prankster in the office before. The sudden noise made everyone laugh, but the candidate took it in good humor and said it was a unique welcome.
