"The interview... frankly I don't care anymore after flunking two first-rounds in 2 weeks. Wonder what happened to the times I could walk blindfolded into a final assessment centre. "Competency" questions have become so ridiculous they ask questions like "Tell me about a time where you had to fight off a feces-flinging 100 stone gorilla with your bare hands". Even bloody indiana jones couldn't answer that truthfully. "

OMG TELL ME THE FUCK ABOUT IT!
it's actually more like
"Tell me about a time where you came up with an innovative idea while working in a team, and you were sharply approaching a deadline, that had been expedited because of a difficult client, and you had to fight off a feces-flinging 100 stone gorilla with your bare hands while you having conflict with another member of your team"
