Fresh out of school..
Submitted by
ColleenI was fresh out of school and interviewing for an internship at a major toy company. I was dressed the part and felt confident walking in. I didn't want to bring a purse in with me so I placed a few make-up items and drivers license and stuff in my coat pocket. After the first interview I went to pick up my coat from the chair and all of the contents of my pocket spilled out on the floor in front of the hiring manager. Then as we left the conference room I bumped into the wall turning off the light. And finally as we were walking down the hall a few minutes later I tripped on the rug and managed to drop my folder and all my papers on the floor ahead of me. I looked like a bumbling fool. Needless to say I didn't get the job.
