JOB INTERVIEWS ARE COOKED!

Job interviews are completely cooked. One hiring manager says a simple “I’m good, thanks” shows no initiative. Another says answering with enthusiasm is “performative.” Then someone else demands military-level bed discipline as proof of character. Apparently the modern interview is a psychological maze where every normal response is somehow wrong.

In this video, we dive into the contradictions of interview advice, where every “tip” sounds like satire and common sense has been replaced with corporate clown tests. From managers who want ChatGPT-level monologues on demand to founders who expect unpaid-founder commitment from candidates, it’s peak workplace absurdity.

If you’ve ever wondered why getting a job feels like auditioning for a role you didn’t ask for, this one’s for you.
