Just got done with an interview for a position within my current company. We are a semi public company so every candidate gets the same 5 questions, on a paper that we cant see until the interview starts, then we have 1 hour to answer all the questions.
This is very dumb to me. I miss private job interviews where you sit down with one or two people, they ask questions based on your answers (not pre-determined ones) and you can expand as needed.
I dont get why we cant know the questions in advanced either. Seems to me they would get a better idea of if I'm qualified if I'm able to think about how to best answer the question. I might have a great example to a specific question but might not remember it in the 3 minutes they give you to look over the questions before you start. It's almost like the entire interview is how quickly you can think on your feet, which is is part of the interview but shouldn't be 99% or your score as it seems to be.
I feel like the interview went ok but could have gone better...who knows, guess we'll find out next week.
