'You really have to shut up and listen': Guy walks into job interview with a 99% chance of getting hired, gets told to shut up and blows it in under 15 minutes

Job interviews can feel downright terrifying, like walking into a room where everyone's judging your every word, outfit, and breath. You don't know what kind of people you'll face on the panel either. Are they looking for someone personable or strictly technical? Do they want buttoned-up professionalism or someone who fits a more casual vibe? It really depends on the company's culture, and reading the room isn't always easy under pressure.

If you've been in the job market lately, you've probably sent out 100 résumés just to land one single interview. So when that moment finally comes, it can feel like your entire career is hanging in the balance.
