[quote=Anonymous]if "tell me about yourself" is where you want to hear marathon stories or hobbies, then that is awful. I think that should be framed as "what do you like to do in your free time" or what are your hobbies.. (both kinda of stupid or annoying things for an interviewer to ask in a formal way, BTW). It should come up more naturally. Personally I don't want to be best friends with the interviewer or share my love of Thai food and that be the reason the company hires me. Not saying I don't want there to be personable nice people, I just don't want it to be one of the interview questions. Also, googling the commute of someone from their resume.. I might do that if it were extremely far (more than say 30 miles) but otherwise that is pretty awful too. You have no idea what their home life or work expectations are, no matter where they live, so I hope you're asking everybody those commute options.[/quote]
