When Humor Meets High Stakes: The Funniest (and Riskiest) Jokes Told During Job Interviews
Job interviews are typically nerve-wracking, but some brave souls attempt to lighten the mood by dropping a joke mid-interview. While humor can break the ice, it doesn’t always go as planned. The jokes people told during their job interviews range from witty one-liners to cringeworthy punchlines, leaving hiring managers either amused or confused. In some cases, these bold attempts at humor paid off, and in others, they may have cost the candidate the job.
These jokes have been curated from a popular subreddit called “r/AskReddit,” where a user named “birthdaycairdpish” posted the question: “Have you ever told a joke at a job interview, how did it go down?” The responses reveal just how unpredictable the reactions to humor can be in such a formal setting. While many of these stories could easily be featured in interview memes, they also offer a glimpse into the courage it takes to test your comedic timing during such a crucial moment. Whether these jokes made or broke the interview, they certainly left an impression!
