Ice-breaker that went wrong?

This was what happened at an interview.

Interviewer (A): (Looking at the datasheet) Oh, you stayed at Sembawang. Very far from our office huh...

Interviewee (B): It's ok. I took the MRT here.

A: Oh, there is a train station near your place? Which station is that?

B: Yes, there is. It's Sembawang (Feeling weird).

A: Is it near your place?

B: It's about 1km away, or 3 bus-stop away.

Well, B thought that its pretty weird to start the interview in this manner, only to know that worse is to come.

Anyway, A told B that they are actually looking for a Jack-of-all-trade due to the nature of the work. From here, A gave the impression that he thinks that B is too specialised and may not be able to cope with the type of work.

If only A had tried a little bit harder, A will probably find out that B is actually more of a Jack-of-all-trade than Master of One.

Oh well, this is the reality of life and how much you can find out from a short 20 mins chat with the interviewee.
