On this throwback Thursday, I go back to one of my favorite “job interview” examples, the interaction that only the intervewee thought was a job interview. Guy Goma thought he was being interviewed for a job as an accountant. The interviewer thought that she was talking to an expert about patent law in technology cases. A guy named Guy. But she had the wrong Guy. This was broadcast on the BBC.

Some thoughts that I have had since about the “after” of job interviews here
Happy interviewing!
