I once almost worked at a beer company where they would literally ask you on your interview which was your favorite beer. This was a mass-produced, cheap lager like Budweiser, so clearly it could not be anyone's favorite beer... but apparently if you didn't say their product was the best you couldn't get a job there.

I straight up lied in my interview and accepted the eventual job offer, only to renege on it after getting an offer from another company literally halfway through my first day on the job...

Literally drinking the kool-aid.

Maybe what they were really testing was your willingness to lie for the sake of "culture"?

The question is fairly bad, but reneging on the offer on your first day on the job isn't all peachy either.

Perhaps it would've been better to hold off on accepting until you have had the responses from every potential employer (Source: have had people not show up on their first day of work way too often)
