This always makes me tense, and yet I'm usually compelled to listen. An interviewee is a person at in a rare and unique state of vulnerability.
Today the interviewer is being an ass to a girl I'd hire for her brilliant haircut alone.

I would hate to have an interview at a Starbucks or something, far far too many distractions to keep me from focusing the way I need to. Thankfully all of mine have been in nice, quiet offices and conference rooms so far.
And, yeah, I get really tense, uncomfortable, and nervous for people when I come across these.

Haha I always wondered why people conduct interviews at Starbucks (or any public food place for that matter). I can only assume they don't have their own space to conduct interviews. Or they're just trying to weed out easily distracted people (me included)

I had an interview for Barnes & Noble once. The manager walked me to the (very full) cafe and we had the interview in the middle of a bunch of people reading/on their laptops. Utterly ridiculous.

I interviewed at a Starbucks once. But it was for a job at Starbucks.

McDonalds has got to be angling for the job interview market these days
