Today, I managed to have 17 different nosebleeds throughout the most important job interview of my life. I managed to bleed all over my own suit, my résumé, the carpet, and the corridor leading to the bathroom. FML

Today, I went to my first job interview in months. Just minutes in, a sudden huge, uncontrollable sneeze overcame me. A wad of snot flew out onto my shirt, which I didn't even notice until the visibly disgusted interviewer pointed it out. FML

Today, I went to a very important job interview. I was so nervous that I passed out right in front of the interviewer's desk. FML

Today, I had an admissions interview at my dream college. I spent hours practicing questions and picking the perfect outfit. It was not until after the interview that I realized I'd scratched a pimple while waiting, and my forehead had been smeared with blood the entire time. FML

Today, I drooled on myself during a job interview and was immediately dismissed. This isn’t the first time it’s happened. FML

Today, while getting ready for a job interview, I sneezed while brushing my teeth, splattering toothpaste everywhere and ruining my brand new dress. FML

Itching and scratching

Today, I went for a job interview, under the impression that I had taken my allergy medication, and had a sneezing fit. Each sneeze seemed to get louder, and every time I blew my nose, it set the sneezing off again. By the end, the entire interview panel was staring at me in disbelief. FML

Today, I finally had an interview for my dream job. It was all going great until I started chuckling uncontrollably, snorted like a pig and hit the guy with the world's largest snot rocket. All I could do was slip out the door as he sat paralysed with shock. FML

Today, I went to a big job interview. As I walked in, I tripped and fell flat on my face. Other highlights include my voice cracking multiple times, sweating profusely and getting uncontrollable nervous giggling. The interviewer eventually stared at me in disbelief and asked if I was high. FML

Ouch, that really sucks OP. I'm sure they'll understand though, it's not like you purposefully got a nose bleed.

damn Daniel, have you seen a doctor?? I don't know much about nosebleeds but that seems excessive! Hopefully they will realize it was a medical thing and not hold it against you! I'm a recruiter and if that happened while I was interviewing someone I would have stopped the interview and made sure you were OK before continuing or rescheduled.

I would suggest seeing a doctor. My dad had a granuloma and had lots of nosebleeds... I don't think he ever had 17 at a time, though.

Sometimes high blood pressure can trigger nosebleeds. In stressful situations, like an interview, blood pressure usually goes up. Or, you may qualify to have blood vessels inside your now cauterized. Have it checked out by a doctor.

Exactly . Used to happen to my Dad until he was diagnosed with HBP. Then he got proper treatment for it. Go to the doctor, OP. oh and good luck with the job search.

I used to have nose bleeds all the time and it was super inconvenient (like the middle of my SAT back in the day). After the last 2 hour gusher I decided to get it cauterized. hurt like hell for 3 days but I haven't had a nose bleed since. Soooo worth it.
