Candidate Q&A - real interview questions and answers

Everyone knows that candidates should prepare themselves for interview questions. Here are some very real examples of a few interview questions and the answers a candidate gave.

Q: "Can you tell me what ended your most recent position?"
A: "When my boss revamped the company, he vamped me to a new job that I wasn't qualified for."

Q: "What about our posting was of most interest to you?"
A: "Well I haven't worked for your company before."

Q: "So tell me what kind of work you're looking to do."
A: "Well I left a bunch of stuff that I've done out of my resume and I guess I should have really put that in there."

Q: "What about our posting was of most interest to you?"
A: "I applied to a lot of jobs so I don't really remember what I applied to at your company."

Q: "This position is budgeted for $65,000. How does that compare to your target range?"
A: "Is that monthly?"
