“How do toilets work?’ I think they wanted to see how confidently I could explain something I didn’t know anything about,” one volunteered. Another suggested, “How stupid."
One educator stated, “I had an interviewer ask me if I was a crayon, what color would I be and why? It was the first question that entirely threw my entire interview off. I stalled and said now, that is the first time I have heard that question.”
Someone volunteered, “So we like to go out drinking sometimes. What’s your limit?” While many agreed it sounded like a fun workplace, another admitted they were sober and didn’t find it appropriate.
“The interviewers asked their first question with complete seriousness and sincerity: Please grab a random item out of this bag. Then, please compose a short song on the spot about the item."
