In 32 years at last former company, of the 1000s of hirings, I remember two hiring mistakes that occurred. This was for IC design Electrical Engineering positions.
I remember one, where the guy was socially clueless. He reminded me exactly of the characters in SNL skit of a "couple of wild and crazy guys". He was also pretty lost in engineering design, I don't know how he ever received a degree. He got layed off pretty fast.
There was another person that was a legend in his own mind. He hired a nice looking very well dressed intern for a summer position, but he got intimately involved with her, which did not end well. He was a little scary & I was assigned to escort him inside the building after hours to collect his possessions, after he was abruptly layed off.
