This happened to me when I went for a job interview for a bank. They were one of the largest in the country. I killed the interview but unfortunately they couldn’t give me the job because the CEO hired his nephew. The manager and employees at the branch were visibly upset when they called me back to break the news. Everyone shook my hand and I walked out.

I decided to really show my worth. That evening I hacked into their entire system closed everything down, leaving all their monitors black across the country just displaying my name in white. My phone kept going off the hook and I had thousands of voicemails from the CEO’s and directors begging me to stop (I’d let you listen to them but my dog accidentally deleted them. He tried to jump on the table and caught the ‘delete all’ button on the voicemail. Unfortunately he tried to jump up again and hit ‘yes’ confirming the selection and they were erased).


So the next day the FBI came. All guns pulled on me, I wasn’t scared or anything, I’ve specifically trained myself for these types of situations. One agent put his gun to my head and said “you are clearly one of the smartest, feared hackers this world has ever seen, whilst it’d be a dammed shame to lose someone as special as you, I am under orders to kill you unless you stop this’.
You could tell all the agents agreed and feared me. Nonetheless, I complied the hack was turned off. They all sighed with relief. The bank called and they said what I did took a lot of balls and I’m clearly the type of candidate for the job. I accepted. Their board of directors were all on loud speaker and applauded and so did the FBI agents and one leaned in and said if it doesn’t work out at the bank to give him a call and I can work for the FBI whenever I want, wouldn’t need any training or even an interview.
