Why do you want to work here?
I like money
"it has always been a passion of mine to not die from starvation"
Mr. Simms: Do you have any experience?
Robbie: No, sir, I have no experience but I'm a big fan of money. I like it, I use it, I have a little. I keep it in a jar on top of my refrigerator. I'd like to put more in that jar. That's where you come in.
I don’t like money but I need it unfortunately.

These are my least favorite questions, along with "what made you want to apply for this position?" I tried asking it back to a recruiter once ("why did you decide to contact me for an interview?"), and they didn't really know what to say.
"I see you decided to turn my own smell against me Potter"
That's not really a hard question to answer. Your resume and experience looked as though you were qualified for the position we are hiring for. I guessnits a pretty bland / pretty obvious answer and I suppose that is your point?
That is exactly my point. It's not worth asking because it doesn't tell anyone anything they don't already know. The ones employers ask are the same, though they want you to blow smoke up their ass about how it's been your dream to write backend code for an insurance company since you were a kid.
I don't like wasting time in interviews on questions or exercises that don't help at least one party decide if the other will be a good fit. Unless you a hiring for a position where someone regularly needs to lie about why they're engaging another party, these questions are rarely if ever valuable.
“Where do you see yourself in 5 years?”
“Hopefully not homeless.”
“Describe a time where you experienced conflict in the workplace. What did you do to resolve it?”
I got that question every time I applied for state jobs. One of my least favorite. But hey, I came up with decent replies and got hired each time.
Test comment.
Test-icle
Just like all my interviews
