Don't know about you guys, but I knew I lost when I was asked:
>If I were to ask your best friend to tell me something (that one little thing) that you always fail at, what would it be?

I answered with I don't know, because explaning that I have no friends wouldve been worse.

Another one
>What gets you out of bed each morning?
What answer can you give that seems authentic? Who even thinks of shit like that? Seems highly unnatural.

The friend part of that question is entirely irrelevant you massive autist. It's simply an opportunity for self-reflection.
>one thing I struggle with is X however I feel that I can develop my skills through doing Y and Z and mitigate any weaknesses I have in that area.
Just pick something minor (nothing that will out you as being unsuitable for the job) and explain what you are doing to improve and correct the issue.

>Why should we hire you over an equally qualified candidate?
I responded that if we're equally qualified, then nothing can differentiate us unless they're hiring based on something not in the job description.

>I don't know,
The correct answer was to lie, simultaneously turning a negative into a positive. Observe:
>Probably that I can be too tenacious, I often have a hard time letting things go when I start them, almost taking my inability to solve a problem as a personal insult. This can be a good thing, being able to work for a large amount of time (almost single minded). However it also might mean that when I should have put my hands up and admitted that I needed help, I won't.
See how I started by mentioning something that isn't traditionally considered a failing, expanding into why this is an issue at times. And then finally wrapping up with the duality of the thing at work.

How the fuck are you normies comfortable in participating in what is just a glorified swindle? The entirety of society rewards whoever is the greatest conman, and to make it worse they then turn around and say
>but lying is wrong!!!
I can't stand this farce. What the fuck is wrong with you people?

The only ethical path is to not lie and accept that you won't be traditionally successful. Would you rather be a loser or a liar?

I agree, that's a nice one. But like >>14393631
says. Why even host these interviews if you just want to hear the correct answer slither out anyones mouth? These questions should stay strictly technical based on job description and shouldnt delve in to the personal
I was asked...
>At the end of a work day how do you let of steam in your personal life? What are your hobbies in the evening?
I responded with entertainment media sometimes vidya. Then they asked
>What genre of videogames?
At that point I think they were fucking with me! A job interview should stay professional.

As a technical matter they already know you are qualified by the resume. The interview is strictly personal. Work on that handshake and eye contact.

This might not be a good thing to say because it could imply you're not good at teamwork or collaboration

This is a reiteration of the thirsty camel. A camel is in the desert under the blistering sun and comes to find itself exactly equal distance from two watering holes. Everything is equal so the camel has no way to choose. So it doesn't until it is sufficiently delusional enough to make up differences which compel action. So if you are asking me what makes me different, I must ask, are you thirsty yet?
