'Interviewer... quit right in the middle of the job interview': 20 Interviews that went so badly it turned away the job candidates

Imagine getting the jitters as you show up to a job interview, only for the interviewer to barely ask you any questions about yourself. Or imagine if you arrived ready to explain your qualifications, but then the hiring manager decided to blabber on about his wife's career, and how you'd be better at her job instead! It sounds crazy, but a lot of people have had incredibly bad job interviews that let them know almost immediately that these roles weren't right for them. Some of them walked out, some told the interviewers off, and others just waited to tell their tale to the r/AskReddit community.

One of the biggest tells of a company that's sketchy to work for is if they're over eager to hire you. The interviewer might only talk about the company, and how great it is to work there. They might show you around and brag about all the perks. But if they don't ask any questions about you, it might make you wonder if you're just going to be another cog in the machine. After all, if they barely care enough to get to know their candidate, why should you give them the time of day? The red flags are already waving, and it's time to keep looking for other career opportunities.
