So tomorrow I have to interview 2 people...

[xospec1alk]

I'll be interviewing two people tomorrow. It'll be for a position that is one step above my current position. In fact, one of their duties will be to be my manager. How the hell do you interview a manager? What sorts of questions do you ask?

My current manager, who will also be in charge of this new hire, will also be interviewing these two people, as well as a slew of others...

Suggestions? Questions?

 

[NuclearNed]

"Theoretically speaking, if one of your reports would ever proposition you for sex, would you tell anyone?"

 

[AbsolutDealage]

"If you were a tree, what kind would you be?"

 

[Maximilian]

"Do you like coke? or pepsi?"

 

[amish]

"how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?"

 

[hypn0tik]

Finish the following phrase:

When in doubt, _________

 

[Stuxnet]

"You're not going to be a dick to work for are you?"

 

[TheChort]

If you are driving home on a dark rainy road, and your car starts to sputter, and you start to slide off the road, only to hit a tree before falling into a massive ditch, and you hit a deer in the process, and your girlfriend calls you at that very moment and tells you she is pregnant...would you brush your teeth the next morning?

 

[mcvickj]

Why are you doing the interview? Shouldn't your current manager be handling this?

 

[bradruth]

"Do these slacks make my cock look huge?"

 

[lightpants]

"What is the best way to dispose of a dead body?"

 

[tfinch2]

Are you willing to inflict physical pain onto employees?

 

[theknight571]

Bruce Lee vs. Chuck Norris vs. Coke..... Who wins?

 

[Stuxnet]

It would be funny to ask a few questions and then just show the fscker the door.

"I'm sorry, I just don't see this working out. Door. Ass. You know the rest."

[TheNinja]

Do you like to give raises to employees....particularly ones that look, act, and talk like me?

 

[ahurtt]

Ask them, "If you woke up in the middle of the woods naked from the waste down and had grass stains on your knees and elbows and a used condom in you a$$, would you tell anybody?"

*BIG WINK*
"would you give them a raise and guarantee them job security even though they look at pr0n all day on company time?"

the candidate is going through a series of interviews with me being the last one they speak with...i have NO clue why i'm being asked for this...

and although the current responses are hilarious...they're not very helpful....

 

[Gibson486]

Just ask him questions that lead you to know if the candidate it right. if that means asking techincal question, then go that route. If you just wantto know his personality, then just talk.
