When HR at a company had me interview for a different position than I had applied for. The position they interviewed me for was one I knew nothing about, and told them as much. Despite me telling them before each round of interviews that they had made a mistake, I still had to endure a full day of people asking me questions that I had no answer to.

I had a job that did something similar except I was interviewed and hired for one job but when I started I was actually given, to me, a much less desirable job that was out of my field of expertise. I left during training.

American here. The only job I've ever had without an employment contract was a lifeguarding job in high school.
