I had an interview for a job as an electrical engineer, specifically dealing with power systems.
The interviewer asked if I would draw a transformer on the whiteboard that was in the room and explain how it works. “okay” I said, “a transformer.
Do you want Optimus prime or megaton?”.
The interviewer was old and obviously had no clue what I was talking about, so I proceeded to say my sorries, and neverminds and drew a transformer with a beat red face.
I am sure that I looked pretty stupid and never ended up getting the job.
That was the first time I had an interview and I felt like the dumbest person in the world.
For those that don’t know a transformer is a component that transfers electrical energy. While the other Transformers is a cartoon and movie of robots that can change from a car into a robot.
Here are what netizens think:
- If it makes you feel any better it took me a minute to understand what you did wrong when I was reading this because I initially thought “why would he ask you to draw one of the transformers?”
- Bro you watched too many cartoon or movie liao.
- “Transformer, Moron in disguise”
- There was this one time I was so nervous in the interview and I was told to take a seat and I sat on the floor, your story makes me feel less dumb.
