Work: Today, I went to an interview for a job at a company I've applied...

Today, I went to an interview for a job at a company I've applied for numerous times this year. When I showed up at the interview room, I found it was a vacant office. I called and confirmed the address. I guess this was my hint to stop applying. FML

Today, I got a call from the only company that asked me to come in for an interview of the many applications I submitted. I answered it even though I was at my current job. My boss heard and chewed me out. The call was to cancel the interview since the position was filled. FML

Waste of time

Today, I went to a job interview. I never applied for the job, they'd sought me out, had a phone interview, and sent samples, all before the face-to-face interview. Turns out none of the people I met with had even read my resume or writing samples. I was told I might not be a good fit. FML

Today, I went to a job interview. I really needed the job to keep my apartment. As I was being interviewed, the manager looked past me and stared off into space. There goes the job and my apartment. FML

Today, while despairing over having been rejected for my dream job, I received an email asking me to come back in for another interview. Then they called me to say they accidentally sent the email to all the applicants, and that they definitely aren't interested. FML

Today, I discovered out of the 20 job applications only one job called me for an interview. They told me to leave after two sentences. FML

Today, after waiting 3 months to see if I got the job I had applied for, I was told that they never received my application. Turns out that the email address that they told me to send it to was not being checked anymore and that they would be happy to consider me for the following year. FML

Today, I had a job interview. The moment I walked into the room, the interviewer said, "OK, I will interview you, but there is no way I'm hiring you." FML

Wait here

Today, I showed up on time for a job interview. After waiting for about three hours, I was informed that the manager had "better things to do" than interview me. FML

Today, I went in for I thought would be an interview for a promotion, but turns out there was no interview set up, and they'd already decided who would be the next manager. FML

Today, I got a missed call from a lady at an employment agency asking why I hadn't turned up to an information session for a potential job. Yesterday, the same lady told me the job position was canceled. FML

The fact that you had applied multiple times without being hired should have been your hint.

@41: You probably don't want to work for a company that doesn't take the time to write back anyway when they don't want you. I hate companies who operate that way instead of sending at least a generic rejection letter would have been something.

No way a company would do that. It would ruin them if it got out

That's messed up, maybe you could look up the company and see were it is (not to apply to work there) and kick em in the nuts... That's wat I'd do, they totally deserve it!

If it's one of those companies who never sends any rejection letters back and leaves people hanging...then it's their own fault that they're too lazy to even tell people that they don't want them. I'm sure if you had gotten the rejection letter you wouldn't have kept on applying. You should tell them that.
