9. My husband was killed in a drug deal that went bad: In a job interview a woman was asked that why she wanted to be a nurse, she said that she wanted to be a nurse after her husband passed away and that she wanted to be a role model for her children. When she was told by the interviewer that her late husband will be proud of her as she has proved to be an excellent role model for their children. The applicant replied by saying that her husband was not a good role model for their children as he was killed in a drug deal that went bad, highlights Holly Wolf, chief marketing officer with Conestoga Bank in Pennsylvania, who previously was responsible for hiring staff for an emergency clinic highlighted this based on her own recruiting experience. According to Holly, candidates should not detail such kind of an incident as it tends to make the interviewer uncomfortable and as a result they may disqualify a candidate.
