Thank you for sharing these 10 interview questions. My interviewers were future fellow workers or team leaders, often engineers, and I’ve never been asked these types of questions, but I always was nervous for an interview. It can help you to prepare for an interview and to build up confidence. Although the questions are probably different, it helps to get ready for original answers.

These are great suggestions. I like the ideas and opening up dialog to more than experience and basic questions to understand character and culture. These ideas can help sort through those that are not aligned with company goals and values. There are no questions in the video that I could not answer for myself including the boss question, for any employer I have worked for past or present. In my opinion if your boss cannot say great things about your performance you may have some growing opportunities to evaluate. Once we stop growing, we die - Tony Robbins

My favorite question for vetting companies was "What books, videos, or other resources do you recommend personally, professionally, or in general?" My favorite recommendations are "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People" and "Thinking, Fast and Slow" (if you can make it through that one). This question is a cultural fit metric. I wanted to know if the people with and for whom I would be working have the same habit of continuous, active learning like me. I am always asking questions and always wanting access to resources to improve myself personally and professionally, so I know I need to be around people who know or can find such resources to feed my appetite. P.S. People of Science is another great resource!

I feel that my worst days have prepared me for change, therefore to make each day I work, my better days. My worst days have given me a lot of guidelines of how not to behave, when not to show emotion, don't make a regular habit of toilet breaks on the last hour before your shift, keep your personal problems at home, and don't let menstrual cramps affect your job these are mostly all things I've learnt from a teenager and because I have been constantly evaluated in the job I am now, I know what they expect of me and how to perform so I have more and more better days. I have been told under personal circumstances instead of getting upset in the work place, even though I try to push thoughts back I become more robotic but my best days are when I appreciate the job I'm in, for what I have, I know what to do and I always want to shine, basically to be the best person they chose to hire. I think it's because I've been very disciplined in the work environment in the past I feel I provide the knowledge and experience that I feel I can bring to the job role and other cashiers

My last employer would say that I am lazy (I complained when I had to work more than 16 hrs/day), subordinate (I kept saying that we needed to hire more people), careless (because I started making mistakes when working more than 12 hrs/day), unreliable (because I 'slept in' after working 56 hours in a 70 hour span), and unrealistic and disloyal (when I didn't support him when the FBI was investigating him for Medicare Fraud). I do not think your former employer's opinion is always pertinent.

As someone with anxiety, I absolutely hate when people ask questions as a trap for "behavioral quirks" and the like. Just because someone can't think of an in-depth answer on their feet doesn't mean anything. I'd probably say "I used to believe helium was an infinite resource but I've recently learned it isn't" because it's fresh in my mind. How would an interviewer take that? It's random and seemingly meaningless so will it be said I'm strange and random? We should be able to interview the people we work for, too. I bet the people that ask these demoralizing questions would flop too.

I signed up a long time ago at the job centre, they gave me jobs I was interested in and if I didn't get it they would ring them and find out why but the one common thing that cropped up was, that I held a great interview so it was nothing I did wrong it was just their final decision

I prefer starting off by tossing the candidate a long slow ball. Because, if they have difficulty hitting a long slow ball out of the park, they are not a good candidate, Then, I want to keep the candidate relaxed and talking, If they are pausing to think over a tricky question, they aren't talking. The more a candidate talks, the more likely they will wander into something really self-revelatory, either good or bad. Who knows? You might discover they are managing a Sunday-school program for 400. Or left the military a little too early under shady circumstances,

In my current job I have only ever had three illnesses of in two years, and when I have a job to do because I care about the work I would put in the extra hours that most people would want to go home by their home time. I'm a trier I'm a doer and if given this position I will want to be the sort of woman I'm proud to say I work here and will want to be the best at anything I do and I don't stop until I achieve it, whereas some people give up at the first hurdle.

I've had 70 different jobs. I've probably been interviewed 300 times. I've heard these questions a lot. There are others too. I strongly dislike the "what would your boss say" question. My response has always been to get that information from the source. I've also been interviewed in blatantly illegal fashions including same sex sexual harassment and willingness to tolerate and participate in deceptive business practices. Not every job out there is worth having, or even legitimate. It was hard to look good when my major off time activity was avoiding an abusive alcoholic relative I was compelled to reside with. Why did I need to work there? I needed to work anywhere to move away from the sabotage inflicted on me at every opportunity. Once liberated, then I could talk hobbies as pursuits instead of dreams..

I think that's illegal to fire someone for who they are. If they are rule followers and wish to do well in their field then they have no right. A verbal warning has to be given for something constructive and real, not just bathroom gossip, then a written and then final and some managers in my experience nit pick because they can't find anything substantial. While it is great to find out what personality your employee is, what I don't like about these questions is the fact that they can disgard you based on your personality. The thing is, even if I was qualified for the job and could do it well, I get underestimated. Certain people in jobs have overlooked me when I was their best person to do it, and to do it well. Someone who cares enough about their job in the first place because I'd be willing to put the hours in and with some people they just see it as a job they come in, go and moan to others how hard done they are done by and I'm not that sort of person so it does make me cross when I am overlooked if this is something that is hugely important to me.

Customers have tweeted how much of an excellent service I've given and gone the extra mile for the company. I think they would say I'm a hard grafter, loyal to the company and reliable. The bosses I've had in my past, roughly two of them were intimidating and were very manipulative, they could somehow twist circumstances around and could make a big deal out of nothing. I heard off one boss how she was privately giving everyone a notebook and a pen and to focus on all the negative things about our actual manager to basically push her out of the job. She was deputy, and I'm guessing wanted her job

Tell me about a time you doubted your abilities? Amazing how often you hear... "Never".

My all time favourite Q is: what's your favourite pastime?/ Do you have a hobby? Why it is?

General information like this is worth exactly what you paid for it. NOTHING! If you need people to tell you what to ask, you shouldn't be in position to be interviewing anyone. Beyond required technical qualifications and past relevant work history, you are on your own. When you meet the candidate, rapport is either there or it isn't. If rapport is necessary, you need to consider it, but truly their resume will tell you 95% of what you need to know. Trying to psychoanalyze people by cleverly crafted questions so you can predict future performance is absolutely ludicrous. If it important for a candidate to be part of a team, have the team meet with them individually and see what their impressions are. Notice I said meet, not interview. Before extending an offer, verify their objective resume claims. That's all you need to know to make an informed decision. There are no guarantees. Just make the decision and move on.

These questions help the hiring manager more than the candidate trying to land a job to provide for their family.

Of course. The purpose of interview questions isn't to help the person getting a job, it's to help the employer

i've been on many interviews and i have never been asked any of these questions.

@cvx5595 2 жыл бұрын

Lots of people complaining about these questions. They aren't hard rocket science questions. Be yourself and answer them truthfully. These questions are a lot more productive then the generic questions everyone one has a scripted answer too.

I like how you show the candidate that you are starting the manipulation and mind games early; it should be started before they even sign the contract. Let them know they are going to go on an emotional rollercoaster that will never end. My favorite is to make the candidate wait about 30 minutes so they are slightly annoyed. Then I send in a new receptionist that is very attractive and make them wait for 5 minutes and then the receptionist sends them into my office. I show the candidate a video of him checking out the receptionist and confront him about the sexual harassment he just committed. It's is a real knee slapper.

TOO MUCH STRESS ON PEOPLE TO INTETVIEW, AND THE PEOPLE WITH THE MOST IMPORTANT JOBS MOST LIKELY DOESN'T GO THROUGH ALL THAT EXTREME STRESS.

Are you kidding me? My son went for a high paying, extremely important job interview, where he was interviewed by 6 different upper management people. He was told the interview would last a minimum of 6 hrs. All 6 people took him out to lunch I am sure to gauge how he did in more comfortable settings. That was after he had 4 phone interviews and another long face to face interview. He would be changing the entire direction of the company for the better. My son was very pleased with his outcome.

See the thing is, that first question isn't quite work related, it's what is something you no longer believe in and I would go certain myths like if you ate crusts you'd have curly hair, or when you were a kid you believed in Santa Claus to eventually get told its a lie. It doesn't state how you've changed your ways to fit in with the job, which I believe the first Question is a trick question to the interviewee because I wouldn't be able to tell it was work related, because I originally thought these were questions based on our personalities and then to say another answer was from the better candidate actually makes me angry. I can adapt to change but I don't like it. It doesn't mean I shouldn't alter my beliefs but I would try a new way of approaching things. It's like when high school grads get a management position, they insist on making all these positive changes and slowly they run into problems that never happened before and you have to prove to them by doing it their way that the old system worked just fine, and only then they back track and go well you'd better do it the way it was before

Oh but it is! work related. You'll see starting in my work like I rejected an interview in the middle of it, because I thought the questions to be waaaAAAYY too personal. But the truth is they weren't, it was just a simple multiple choice test, later on training more for interviews I learned that questions are meant to be seen as personal(to catch some red flags), but it is our job to keep it professional, meaning apply the question to work-life and answer it in a way that directly or indirectly would influence our job performances. Figure it out, and don't let the question distract you from your goal.

N Santander or figure out peoples personalities and work them to your advantage like put some people on sales, some people on your shop floor. I believe if you have a good understanding of personalities like if you are settling up a business you can get to know which position is suited for them based on their personality

Do I have to do this? 1. What is something that you used to believe but no longer believe? 2. Who were the competitors at your last company and how did your company differentiate itself? 3. Tell me about your best and worst days at work? 4. If I called your prior boss, what would they say about you? 5. Are you working on anything exciting outside of work? 6. You have two teleportation devices, where do you put them and why? 7. Wait, do you remember all of our names? 8. If you didn't have to work, why would you come into the office. 9. Describe the last significant conflict you had at work and how you handled it. 10. Is there something I didn't ask you that I should have? They seem lame to me but there they are.

As I have interviewed candidates and have been interviewed by companies, I find it that some of these questions are absolutely outdated and can be "learned to answer", hence they defeat the purpose of the interview. The "trick and outsmart" questions like what would your boss say about you can take any direction and at the same time have no worth. We had a very aggressive and toxic boss once who made it her strategy to ruin people's careers once they left the company. She would personally called into the new companies to badmouth the ex-employee because she couldn't stand that they left. She might have been on the dark extreme spectrum of the leadership mentality but there are MANY MANY bosses who are just in the middle and have poor relationships with their employees. Putting the heaviness on the kind of answer someone gives and pressuring the candidate to navigate this answer "what would your boss say about you" in order to please someone's "cultural fit" for me is a red flag. If you really must ask it, you can always ask what your colleagues or friends would say. Or make it a group - what would your superiors, colleagues and friends say about you. To make it more generic and easy to navigate. But overall it is question that wastes time. Or at least here in Europe we definitelly do not have the same mindset about work as people in the USA do.
