interviewing people
a coworker told me today that his favorite interview question is: ‘what is your favorite miles davis album?’ interesting.
one of my favorite questions is: ‘can you describe to me how a toilet works?’. it’s a great question that forces you through understanding how a toliet operates (and most people have no idea).
i’ve been doing a lot of interviewing lately (college students, experienced candidates, offshore workers), and i find that there is really no perfect question or questions. it’s really best to run with the flow of the interview, and try to get people to open up. i also find it fascinating that you can tell where most interviews are going within the first few minutes.
what’s your favorite interview question(s)?
