I have been in sales for awhile, and I have only seen HM's ask me ridiculous performance requirments once and I refused and gave them a better alternative. I had one joker ask me for a group interview, which they didn't inform me of, then they wanted all of us to tell a funny story about a job related incident with details. Seeing as how this was amateur hour heading to the circus I told him I am going to tell why you should hire me and I left after that with the HR generalist frowing.
I like to dance, but pretty sure I would have walked out. Sounds completely unprofessional to me, you can perform a formal interview and see then how a person's attitude is and if they would mesh well with your group.
I don't see a single C-D poster defending the bizarre behaviour in the OP. Nor do I think that explaining how HR practices work or how hiring managers think makes me or several other posters the equivalent of sociopathic mass murderers.
You are out of line and really should apologize for your offensive post.
For the record a sociopath is not just a mass murderer a socioparh is someone with no social morality. Typically they are incapable of forming conclusions based on their conscience, which is either underdeveloped or non existent.
If they had asked me to dance & it was an attractive woman, I'd say "sure, if you strip down to your underwear & dance for me first I'd be happy to join you." (Or, if it was an older man, say "if you have a cute wife or daughter, have her come in here strip to her underwear & dance for me THEN I will be happy to do so also.")
Might as well, give them a taste of their own medicine, and heck at that point you probably don't have the job anyway, you might as well.
