On: Worst-ever job interviews: 'We had to crawl and mo...

"We need to know our hires are comfortable being part of a herd. We're low-ego, and we know that no one can do it alone. We're scrappy, and we'll crawl to get where we're going if we have to. No one is so important that they should stand up by themselves while everyone else is doing the hard work of moving forward."

I think I need to go take a shower now.

Memes aside, it sounds like this was a student job, which makes me think this was more "college kid screwing around" than "corporate toxicity".

I think I’d crawl and moo in an interview if my future direct manager did it first. If it’s so important then they shouldn’t have a problem doing it. I would mostly do it for the story of telling someone I did.

Power abuse is still power abuse. :/

Yeah, absolutely. But the type matters to the kind of solution.
