I imagine that there are some Nigeria employers or corporate recruiters here. It would be great to hear directly from you what your worst interview experiences are so applicants can learn from them. A lot of potentially good employees are lost at interview stages because of silly and avoidable interview mistakes. If they can avoid some of these pitfalls, then you stand a better chance of getting some of the very best recruits. Help them help you...

My worst interview experience was caused by not preparing well. I got invite two days or so to interview.


I didn't have time to read much about the sector I was going to interview for, so I relied on residual knowledge. I mixed up a couple of things on specifics of the industry, but I did well on general questions/current affairs. I got the job in the end, but it was my poorest performance for an interview.
