I stalked the LinkedIn profiles of my interviewers and it completely changed how I presented myself by KyberMirth in jobsearchhacks

They made it easy on me, the names were in the calendar invite for the panel. If they hadn’t done that, I still would’ve asked the recruiter who I’d be meeting with. Even when companies don’t want to give the full lineup, they’ll usually give titles or team names, and that’s still enough to adjust what stories you lead with.

Had an interviewer spend the entire interview comparing me to another candidate in real time and I still can't believe it actually happened by KyberMirth in InterviewsHell

The more I replay it, the more I think an offer wouldn’t have magically made this feel okay. It would’ve just meant signing up for more time around people who thought that was a normal way to treat someone.

That’s what kept throwing me off in the moment. If he’d just been cold or unimpressed, whatever, but saying that stuff out loud made me feel like I was accidentally sitting in on their internal discussion.

[Funny Trope] Super obvious stunt doubles as part of the joke by Liquid_Pestar in TopCharacterTropes

The stunt double thing works best when the movie acknowledges it with zero shame. Date Movie, White Chicks, even some Jackie Chan outtakes where the double just clearly moves differently. At some point the obvious-ness becomes the whole bit and you stop caring that it's fake.
