What question did you refuse to answer in a job interview?

0:03.3

What's your Zodiac sign?

At first, I thought it was a joke, but he went on to explain in detail that it was very important

0:09.7

that all the signs of his employees were compatible with his to prevent drama in the workplace.

0:14.8

Then he started telling me about past lives. It was a weird interview.

0:18.7

Why should we hire you when you just got married and we'll probably

0:22.0

be starting a family soon? I initially refused to answer, but couldn't resist by the end of the

0:26.7

interview, telling them that I'd had my tubes tied for years and literally couldn't have kids.

cubicles, not private. With her, he insisted she couldn't really speak Spanish. The girl was black,

1:21.5

but she was from Belize. Anyhow, we were both hired even though he failed us on our spoken language

1:26.3

1:31.3

He interviewed another girl I knew who looks very Hispanic but barely speaks Spanish, and

1:36.0

he does not write it.

1:37.6

He gave her a 100.

1:39.3

At my office, I found out he had given anyone that looked white or black very low scores,
