WSJ Online has a brief article on some of the silly questions that get asked at interviews: Is that your natural hair colour? Give me a second and I'll check...If you were a dog, what kind of dog would you be? Library cats are far more traditional, but a terrier in the closed stacks...
Some questions are just gaffes, small talk gone hopelessly wrong, but other questions, like the Melrose Place catty natural hair colour question which could be fishing for your age, can become truly inappropriate. Most often the interviewer is as nervous as you are because they have an important job as well: they need to hire someone. And it better be the best person.
Forgive a gaffe and dodge the digs. This information sheet will help you spot improprieties.
