Interview test questions....

  • What is the point of "attractiveness" questions on personality tests for a job?
    Unless you're trying for a modeling job, who cares?
    I took a screening test with Homeland Security once, and the stupid question came up repeatedly!

  • Nobody knows? What would answering yes, no, yes, no do to the results?
    This is not an egocentric question. I just don't know how to answer such an irrelevant question.
    I'll never be a model, but I haven't scared any little children yet....

  • The only idea I have is that they might be thinking that an "attractive" person (what ever that means to them) would be a better 'public face' than some one who looks like Quasimodo...

    On the other hand maybe they are looking for a few Quasimodo's ...

    Sometimes, I get the feeling that these questions are designed to see what sort of response a person gives... Other than that I can't see that they have any real validity in todays business world... outside of Hooters or the Playboy mansion...
