I say I am fuccked if I know if I cannot answer the question and when they say tell me about yourself I say what the ***** is it to you. I would be good for the job and am qualified but they need to be more open minded about me. I am trainable and have skills I just get aggressive of the attitudes some people have to interviews and the humiliation tactics they use to mess with your head. Some interviews I do not swear but when they are arrogant I think stuff you I would not want to work for you you lsoer.

Well, I know for sure I would not hire you.
It is totally unacceptable to swear during a job interview or any time in the work place. You just don't do that. It's absolutely not professional.
Even if you have the skills and are trainable, it will all go down the drain once you start swearing. The message you are sending is that you cannot control yourself.

Unless swearing skills are required for the job you've applied for, it's generally not considered good taste to swear during an interview. I'd have reservations about hiring someone who was aggressive and swore during an interview. Frankly, I'd probably feel intimidated--and who wants an employee who intimidates them? An agressive, swearing coworker can be frightening, as well, to the people who are expected to work with him. If the job is one you'd like to have, perhaps not assuming that interview questions are intended to trip you up, but rather to learn a little about you, might be a better attitude to have. Employers do NOT need to be more open-minded about you. Remember, it is YOU who are looking for a job.

I know you are frustrated and you need the job NOW. But, you must be patient. No, its not appropriate to swear during your job interview, no matter who the interviewer is or what job you are interviewing for. What you need to do is go to the interview with your hat in your hands. There are so many talented people looking for work, and the employers pick the ones with the best attitudes. They don't want trouble. Would you?
I would say, be cool, hang tough, and don't be emotional in an interview. You know, business is business.

It is never appropriate to swear during a job interview. Nobody will give you a job if you give them attitude. If you are agressive, and use bad language during the interview, the manager will be apprehensive about the idea of working with you. No matter how qualified you are, that kind of behavior will make the employer think that you have a bad work ethic. You don't have to be a doormat, but you do have to mind your manners.

It's not appropriate to swear at an interview, ever.
The purpose of an interview is to put your best face forward to the interviewer, to convince them that you will be a reliable, productive member of their company. Swearing doesn't convey that, and no interviewer is going to suggest hiring you.
They may be arrogant, but you know what, they have something that you want; so you have to act the part in order to achieve your goals.
You say that "they need to be more open minded about me"; did you ever consider that maybe you need to be more openminded about them?

No, ESPECIALLY saying F*CK comes across as unprofesional, trashy, and uneducated. I can't believe any person in their right mind would even WONDER if it's appropriate to swear during a job interview. Maybe you should go back to school and take an ettiquite course...

Not unless you want to exclude yourself from the interview process.
Why would anyone want to hire you if all you can do is swear. And contrary to what you think, not all interviewers are humiliating. They are trained to get you to think "on your feet" (spur of the moment) and they want your answers. They aren't trying to humiliate you.

Unless you are wanting to stand in line at your local food bank you need to watch your mouth. I would NEVER hire someone that was swearing during an interview. It shows a HUGE lack of maturity and intelligence.

Cursing seems to be the least of your problems, my dear.
You seem to have one humongus TUDE... an AT-TIT-TUDE!! It's not attitude coming from others, it is attitude coming from yourself. You seem to view people as "out to get you," to humiliate you, to "mess with your head." Sounds like you are paranoid. You say others are arrogant, but you are giving off that same arrogance in your "question."
And if you do not tone down this TUDE problem, it will continue to manifest itself at the wrong times and wrong places, and you will continue to have difficulties with job interviews, and jobs. People with the TUDE you have OOZE the TUDE, and other people sense it rather easily... and you are turning them off to hiring you.

swearing at an interview is totally okay, as long as you don't really want the job and don't mind the interviewer alerting other potential employers in the area to your behavior.
