Katie’s story

I was asked an old interview classic: how could I make sure I would be remembered after leaving the interview.

So I panicked and blurted out a knock knock joke. Because why wouldn’t I?

If it wasn’t already bad enough, as part of the joke I had to shout MOOOO like a cow at the interviewers!

Oddly enough, it didn’t really go down well… and I didn’t get the job.

Want Katie to win?
