Subject:interview questions revisited From:Robin Johnson <robin -at- MACSCH -dot- COM> Date:Thu, 4 Jun 1998 16:57:21 -0700
One of my favorite interview questions always elicits an interesting response:
"Is there anything that you've seen in me today that would prevent me from
getting this job?"
As I see it, there's no wrong answer to this question. If there are areas
in which you need improvement, the interviewers will (hopefully) tell you.
Otherwise, what else can they do but say "no," then extend an offer to you?
