[quote=Anonymous]Well stop asking candidates the questions like " describe an academic challenge and how you overcame it". Those are stupid questions. Back in the day I would have thought "well, school comes easily so I've got nothing, but if I say that I'm an arrogant jerk. So crap, let me make something up". It's also a coachable question and I'm so sick of the answers that I do get. "Beauty pageant contestant" answers, I call them. The university has their resume and teacher recommendations. Instead ask them questions designed to get them talking about themselves and not their resume. If the candidates can't say anything in response to "if you went into a bookstore, which section would you go to, and which sections would you avoid" then we might have someone not ready. [/quote]
