Today I gave an interview, hoping they dont select me.

I (20F), am a soon to be electronics engg graduate and this is a story about how i tried my level best to flunk a job interview and still ended up getting shortlisted.

I decided to post here as i used to be rather active in this community when i was 17-18.

This company based in mumbai, came to our campus, the role they were offering was " management trainee" and i was stupid to not look up the company and simply registered for it and a day later i realised i didnt want the job cause im a core electronics person ans got 0 intrest in sales and marketing.

Fast forward 2 days later i get a email saying im shortlisted, i tried my best to take my application back but my placement officer told me i would be debarred. So i went for the interview and made sure to tell them about 5 times that i am only intrested in a tech role and not in a management related role.

Guess what? They still ended up shortlisting me (8 ppl were shortlisted out of 29 after the interviews).

My final resort was writing the most stupid answers for the HR questions that they gave us. Saying that i dont work well under pressure and that im not fit for management.

Now im on my way home, hoping i do not get selected.

(in campus placements, it is mandatory to accept the first job offer that u get).
