What's the most interesting or shocking question you've been asked by someone you were interviewing? I got asked, “If you could change one thing about the hiring process here, what would it be and why?” It caught me off guard in the best way, because it showed the candidate was thinking critically about transparency and improvement, not just for themselves but for everyone involved. That, or they just wanted to seem smart and planned to ask me this question. Curious to hear others' stories.

wow that's a great question. I love how candidates are also starting to challenge the interviewers. I've been asked something similar about the biggest challenges in my role

I’ve gotten some memorable questions! One that stands out is: “What's something you don't like about the work culture". It surely made me think, not only of the answer, but of what the right thing to say is.
