    Isn’t that a book published back in 2012? Perhaps it should be updated to include questions like “tell me how you operate when working from home…” or “how do you lead a team remotely?”.

    I had to sit in a couple of job interviews today. In one of them my manager decided to ask a question to test the candidates intelligence. Question was off the top of his head. What's 7 X 12 he asked. I swear this dumass asked that.

    Worst part was that the lady couldn't even answer wouldn't even give a rough estimate of what it could be 😂

      Let me rephrase. You're making $12 per hour and you worked 7 hours. How much money you got?

    I wonder how with all the selection and “smart” interviews they do to candidates I still see so many incompetent people in all kind of workplaces

      HR is just where they put people with good networking skills but no aptitude for anything worthwhile.

    • sancrumble on 15/09/2020 - 22:51

      Coz they cleared the interviews by reading this book :D

      • Trender on 15/09/2020 - 23:34

        My experience, if the interview panel asks questions similar to this book then they are just killing time and really not interested to hire you. Every time I got actual skills related questions and real discussion about past experience, I got selected.

          Depends on the culture of the organisation and compliance with so called 'expected processes'. When I spent time in government roles my notes from doing interviews and evaluations had to be specific on elements that overlap with some of these questions.

          Like you say the real substance though is in the discussion about actual experiences and how it applies to the opportunities and challenges of the role.

    It's amazing that job interviews are still the main way of hiring in 2020. It tests a skill that for most jobs isn't relevant, without testing the actual relevant skills.

      I think for most high end jobs the employer seeks you or you find them via networking rather than an open position. Job interviews seem to be mainly for entry level positions.

      • capslock janitor on 17/09/2020 - 23:45

        networking

        Damn I need a book how to be a "people-person" :(

    i went to an interview once and the guy started reeling off the standard bullshit questions in this book. we both actually started laughing at the same time, he ended up just saying something like 'yeah youve got the job i dont know why i am doing this'.

    • AustriaBargain on 16/09/2020 - 13:12

      Sometimes just the setting of asking any question at all can be the "interview", just seeing how you respond, if you can respond. If you can sit in an interview and answer questions about your favourite Beatle or color for half an hour, then you're probably socially adept enough to navigate a lot of workplace and client conversations and the hiring manager can be sure you at least won't be awkward. But if you act like your time is being wasted by stupid questions, then you might act the same way around coworkers or clients which could offend them or hold up work you were meant to do together. Interviews are bullshit, but at the same time they aren't. Working for the man is bullshit in the first place imo.

    Q: "Where do you see yourself in five years?"
    A: "Looking for a new job when you outsource or offshore mine or replace me with someone younger you want to pay less (for a while)"
    "Correct answer! You're hired (for now)!"
