What are some dirty tricks you have been subject to during group interviews? One upmanship, competition, sabotage, etc?
How do you react to someone "accidentally" spilling a beverage on your suit minutes before the interview? Someone lying about interviewing there before and giving deceptive information? Someone constantly interrupting you and trying to twist your words and trying to make your answers look inadequate?
I haven't experienced any of this first hand, trying to see what lengths people have gone during group interviews.
I suggest if someone spills a beverage on you accidentally-on-purpose, you get in a shouting match with him. You're already not going to get the job, you might as well make sure he doesn't either.

Yeah okay. I have never heard of anyone sabotaging a group interview
I've only been in "group" interviews in retail places that where they were hiring a large number of people.
2 Places to be exact. I walked out on one because I was on my break at my main job and it took forever. They didn't tell me how long it was going to be or that it was going to be a group interview.

Usually group interviews are for people in retail/customer service. I had one when I was nineteen, and I never experienced any sabotage. I had someone disagree with me once... I think she thought she was better than me, but she was applying for the same job, so it's more hilarious than anything else.

I had one of these years ago and it was total BS. The company was Teach for America. I'd avoid any company that does that.
