Brain Teasers 1

I had a interview once where halfway through they started asking me brain teasers. Being annoyed at this I responded by telling them, look I am here for a job those questions are not even remotely related to the job in any way if you have a serious question I will answer it. Has anyone else been annoyed at stupid questions during a interview?

Lol. I'm gonna guess you didn't get the job.
I had a interview one time, god, this must have been like ten years ago. It was the first time I've ever faced any behavior questions, I’ve never heard of it prior. The HR threw typical behavior questions, the usual ones that you hear all the time and I was NOT prepared for it and in the middle of me stuttering, I hung up. Man, that was embarrassing. Even to this day, I'm still haunted by the memories.
