Default Questions you don\'t want to hear during a job interview?

So, do you have any faults? (I don't want to hear this cos I know the 'I sometimes work too hard' only works on dufuses, and I'm out of answers otherwise).

Do you like [Sport X], cos we have a team? (you hate Sport X)

Any question where they randomly ask you to name a situation where you've "been a team leader", "taken charge of a situation", "helped those in need", "voluntarily done a job you didn't want to do" and the like. I can never think of answers quickly so have to make stuff up.

So you took about 15 months off between the end of secondary school and the start of university, but you spent less than 6 of these out the country and only had a job for less than 3. What the hell were you doing the rest of the time?

Oh, no, I'll inflate the number of months of everything I've done of course so I don't have to ever answer a question with "sweet FA".

If there are 3 equally qualified people applying for the job including yourself, why should we hire you instead of one of the other 2?

Have you ever been convicted of a felony?
