Which Interview Question Is The Strangest?


Interview Questions Are Getting Weirder according to an article by By DANA KNIGHT, THE INDIANAPOLIS STAR. One of these questions was posed to the brother of William Butch Fennema, an associate professor of business at the University of Indianapolis. "The people who ask these types of questions believe themselves to be experienced psychologists or worse," he says. "They believe that by asking a few questions completely out of context they can do a good psychological profile of an interviewee."

How much money do you want to get paid, this is my favourite.

"Are you more like a placid pool of water or a running horse?" What kind of IDIOT asks that? As a young journalist applying to lots of different places, I often have to answer these creepy weird questions. No wonder I'm unemployed. The Seinfeld one is the best, though. I can really imagine myself screwing up saying I'm George Constanza.

that's only because you're good... if you weren't you'd have to answer these questions.

I pity these poor job applicants, who have to answer such questions. I never have to apply for anything; I get recommended from job to job.
