job interview questions

[Cult Zero]

what are your essential job interview questions?

i noticed that most applicant have ready answers to the typical questions like "how do you see yourself 5 years from now?" , "tell me something about yourself" etc.

personally, i always ask for their weakness. i know it's somewhat typical but it says a lot about the person. i'd also ask if they have a boyfriend (to male applicants) just to see how they would react.

[_Qwerty_]

male applicants - if they have a boyfriend?? diba offending na yan..

nakow, hindi pwede madali ma offend dito sa company namin kasi puro mga engineers makakasama nya. baka umuwi syang luhaan araw araw pag na offend sya dyan pa lang. being quick on his feet and witty is important.

fresh from college, i just found myself interrogated by a panel of some division heads...the first question asked was: DO YOU HAVE A BOYFRIEND? My answer: I NEVER HAD ONE, I MIGHT FIND HIM HERE, then let go of my bestest smile...i got hired.

OT:

sa US embassy, i was asked, do you have kids? i answered, i haven't thought of having one just yet...maybe after this travel, Maam, again with my bestest smile...she replied: i was just kidding, i know, because i have been perusing your DS-156 and 157...she gave me ten years.

in any interviews, grabe ang kaba ko...pero nakakaraos din.

nothing too funny hp. some just blush , some stutter but most are very cool in handling it

one time this applicant smiled nervously and began talking about how he and his girlfriend just broke up blah blah blah. then i noticed his eyes were starting to get wet. i had to cut his story short & ask another question before he bursted into tears.

i got one here:
what's the most challenging part of your work you've experienced from your career before (fill interviewee's company name) and how you'd cope it!
note i was already seconded to them thru manpower agency before they called me for interview.

though this one is only applicable sa mga experienced guys wanting to jump from other "ships"
