[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I can't imagine any job where your level of fidelity would come into question. It has nothing to do with any job you might perform, so why would they ask such a specific question?  [/b]

I've never taken a polygraph, but I would assume questions would be more like "have you ever taken anything from the office that does not belong to you"  "have you ever lied for your boss" "did you earn a degree from XYZ University" "do you currently use illegal drugs"

Whatever you do OP, just be honest.  [/quote]

I just assumed they’d ask something embarrassing that most people would be inclined to lie about. So they could “catch” you lying about something. I have no idea. My entire knowledge of polygraph tests was gleaned from movies and TV, so that shows you how detached from reality from it I am

 A polygraph is not about embarrassing you. Its making sure you disclose everything that could be used to blackmail you. So if you disclose then youre less likely to be blackmailed into sharing sensitive work information. Noone cares if stuff is embarrasing. There will be a lot of base response setting questions at first. A certaib number if peoole ate so nervous they will always fail a polygraph. [/quote]
