HR: What is your biggest weakness.

John: I’m very honest.

HR: I don’t think honesty is a weakness?

John: I don’t give a shit what you think.

Those are horrible questions.

You want to learn about someone you ask them to relate a real world experience that demonstrates their “traits.”

If you have a practiced answers to the questions you are not going to learn a damn thing.

I was actually interviewed in a bar once. This was mid 1980s. I ordered a gin and tonic. I guess that was an okay choice as I got offered the job.

Interviewer: “Where do you see yourself in five years?”
Me (collecting my thoughts): What is this,1985? Who still uses this as a serious question? Clearly a rookie interviewer who doesn’t want to be here.
