TikToker gets asked insane question on job app

TikToker Klauss was filling out a job application on September 2 when they were asked a series of very peculiar questions.

The form asked him to explain the period of time he was unemployed when he was younger. So young, in fact, the age range the company was asking about was when Klauss was just five years old.

“When this job application asks me why I was unemployed in elementary school,” they said in the viral video.

Users in the comment section shared similar stories of being asked strange questions. One user said, “Got asked why I was unemployed for about a year in 2020. Like, are u kidding?”

Another said, “I had to fill out a background check going back 14 years – I had to explain why my name wasn’t on a lease when I was 9.”

A user shared a medical school application horror story, “For my med school application, I had to put down all the addresses I lived at to 25 years ago. I’m 23. I literally just wrote I wasn’t born yet.”

Clearly, Klauss is not alone in having to answer some questions that simply have no real answer.
