I've always had a strange interview experiences.

Straight out of university, failed the first one, they had a better candidate, but they called me a few weeks later and made a role for me. Was here for 18 month's.

Second one was odd, had flown to another city looking for an apartment and had several viewings booked, had applied to several jobs in the weeks beforehand and had several screener calls. Got a call a few minutes after landing, said I was in the city and could pop around for a face to face, had to navigate an unfamiliar city and transport system, arrived a few minutes late to interview. Had no recollection of the company and told them so, they had to remind me. Had my laptop with me and some files and was able to talk them through some work etc. Interview went well. On the way back to the station the phone me to come back and sign a contract. Was here for 4 years.

Third role, a friend recommended to their employer. At interview one of the recruiters was also working with another company and instead recommend me to that company. Several reschedules later due to flu on their and my end, had an interview and a small task, a week later had the they offered me the position. Was here for 4 years.

Fourth role, recruiter game me a call and I went along for the ride... screening calls were fine, interview had a few odd questions but was offered and still here 4 years later.
