I'm bizarre
It's really stupid. I went through a single interview and started at a bank making decent money right out of college. A couple years later I decide it would be fun to work at a game store part time. I applied to Electronic Boutique and the hoops they made me jump through was insane. It took me 4 interviews, a drug test, and a written assessment to get the minimum wage job, which consisted of shooting the poo poo about games and ringing people up on an archaic cash register. I don't know how people go through that poo poo multiple times for multiple jobs. I heard horror stories of lost paperwork, etc.
