Indian Interview 

The Indian habit of interviewing everyone they meet for information on their family, including parents' jobs, income, number of siblings, plans for the future, possible marriageability, etc. They will find out everything and then decide if you are the type of person they want their kids to hang out with.

job interview 

A process in which arrogant recruiters deny themselves the benefits of many talented, capable, candidates due to an unfair screening process that in absolutely no way reflects the everyday job situation or assesses the skills required to succeed.
A talented person who had produced major growth in his previous company and had 5 years of experience in C# got a rejection after a job interview in which the recruiter said he was not skilled enough to do the job. This was because they asked questions on language concepts that are rarely used in C# and gave a brainteaser algorithm to code up in a 15 minute time limit without a compiler or computer.
