Nothing like some pressure huh? LOL. Yeah, that kind of stuff is so ridiculous. Probably not a company you'd want to work for anyhow; if that's what they based their hiring on who knows what other annoyances you'd be dealing with as an employee.
I've gotten an offer at every job I've interviewed for since college (don't ask, I have no idea) except for one. In this one my initial interview was with the CTO who also heppend to be the CFO (there's a major red flag for anyone who cares, that's a different topic though). I made it through that one, had a follow-up with her IT staff, then I was to have a third with a high-level technical resource over the phone.
Turns out, the third guy was the guy who's job I was applying for and he ended up having absolutely ZERO social skills, nevermind interview skills, and came off as over-the-top confrontational throughout the whole process. Finally, after about 20 minutes of dealing with this asshat, I lost my patience and reamed him out.
Needless to say I didn't get the job but, frankly, why would I want to work for a company that allowed someone like that to even speak to potential hires. Incidentally, the company got bought out about 6-months later and the new parent company shut down all their east coast manufacturing locations so I guess I got the last laugh.
