Interviewer: And what would you say are your best qualities? OP: Oh, I'm very attentive and enthusiastic! And I'm also very... Interviewer: Very what? OP: ...very... Interviewer: Hello? OP: ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzz *click*

How does one do that. How do you fall asleep during an interview? Are you not interested at all?

You snooze you lose.. Or in this case you had nothing to lose. Sucks bro

That's exactly why phone interviews are useless.

hopefully your next job interview will be at Starbucks so you can at least stay awake.

It happens. Just explain to them you had a long night looking for a job and they'll probably understand

Unless the interview was actually scheduled and not a surprise phone call.

And this guy will be one of the people whining "I've had like 10 interviews and i just can't get a job!"...

He doesn't remember, he fall asleep

If the interview was for a company that manufactures sleeping pills, you can tell them that you use their product faithfully, if they ever call back.

Person who interviews: how productive are you? OP-"snore"

You sound like my husband. He falls asleep driving, talking on the phone, and whatever else. Do you have sleep apnea? Cuz they do have treatment for that. it's called a breathing machine and sometimes weight loss if that's the case.

He probably should not drive anymore until that is under control.
