ST Poll: Weirdest or most interesting job you interviewed for?

Posted by oblique (aka kkuphal) Dec 31 '08, 07:40

I interviewed for Peapod once. The guy I interviewed with had great stories about how the entire site used to run on a PC next to his desk. Then they showed me this big data center that ran it now and how customer information (like how much of a discount it takes to make a Pepsi drinker buy Coke) was more valuable and profitable to them than the actual grocery sales

at the time, I thought it was a local chain of independent video stores - tRuMaN Dec 31, 07:43
Once in high school I interviewed to work at a plant nursery. He quizzed me on green thumb-type stuff like what chemicals to use when, etc. - con_carne Dec 31, 07:43
