So I apply for a job today that looks promising for me with an on the spot sort of interview...
Anyway, they tell me that when they do the interviews they have 5 rounds of interviews and they do it in a group.
Anyone had an interview like this before?

i did a group interview once, they want to see how you react with others, like are you the quiet type waiting for others to start a conversation or do you pound right in making you the reason things happen...
also are you being interviewed by more than 1 person or is 1 person interviewing more than 1 applicant?that makes a difference in your question .

not sure how many people interviewing, but sounded more like it was going to be a group of applicants... Any group interview advice is appreciated as I haven't done one of these before...

bring 5-6 of your friends and tell them that you must have misunderstood.

just be yourself and don't feel pressure from the other applicants to do anything that makes you feel uncomfortable. You gotta show the interviewer that you're able to think by yourself and be assertive, but that you're also able to work cordially with others.

ahaha gruntt! Or even better, have five of your friends apply for the same job, then all of you can go into the interview together and they can make you look good.

my advice would be 'have a few drinks before you go, and make sure to zip it up'.

okay, so I was thinking if we're all sitting around in a circle like, is it all right to pass around a doob?
