The Daily Muse
When I was a job-seeker, I dreaded interviews. I hated the trick
questions, the brainteasers and, most of all, the questions I expected
but couldn't quite answer. ("What's your biggest weakness?" was the death of me.)
But when I became a manager and had to interview people for my team, I
found myself asking the same tricky and ineffective questions because
they were all I knew. That made my hiring decisions pretty tough; after
all was said and done, I had no idea whether each candidate was a good
fit for the role or not.
