 Creative Interview Questions
Next week I will be interviewing some potential employees for my father's business (an office manager and a couple of administrative assistants), and I would like to come up with some interesting and creative interview questions. It seemed like for every job I ever interviewed I got the same "what are your strengths and weaknesses" type questions. Boring. Can anyone suggest questions that will give me a good insight on the potential employee without making them feel tortured? Better yet...what's the best interview question that was made to you, or that you made to a potential employee?

How about a situation that your company has going on, asking for how they would manage that? (I wouldn't divulge that it was a problem, per se) Or you could bring up a past issue and ask how they would handle that. Those kind of topics make for a more interesting conversation, I think, and lets you see how the person thinks. |

Ask them "Why are manhole covers round?" A classic Microsoft question. |
