When you're interviewing for a job, you know you shouldn't cut your toenails or bring your own bottle of wine.

These job candidates obvious didn't read the job seekers manual -- or CareerBuilder.ca's list of "Wierdest Interview Behavior."

Here's the wierdest of the wierd:

One candidate said he was fired from his last job for beating up the boss.
Another wore her housecoat and bedroom slippers to the interview.
He spit.
He wore swim trunks.
She brushed hair during interview.
She asked for a ride home after the interview.
He sniffed his armpits.

For information on getting a job in psychology, read Jobs for Psychology Graduates. It's got some seriously good tips on working in social services or the mental health field.

For great information about getting a great job and shining during the interview, go to CareerBuilder.ca.
