Why some job candidates flunked their interviews:
Taking calls and texting. A male graduate student seeking a managerial position in Avery Dennison's research and development unit took a call on his smartphone about 15 minutes into the interview. The call, which lasted about a minute and wasn't an emergency, ruined his near-certain chance for a job offer, Singel says.
"If he thought that was OK, what else does he think is appropriate?" he says.

Helicopter parents swooping in, poor socialization and more. I wonder how common this is.
This isn't a problem. It makes the selection process easier.
