[SML] interview questions

[JIM VOGEL]

Tell me about a time where you had to help a difficult customer/person; why did you consider them difficult; how did you interact with them; were you able to resolve the issue, and if so, how?

Below are some questions I find useful when interviewing folks.  I've omitted the one about past job experiences and whatnot because I'm assuming you're not asking for those types of questions.

What first interested you in this job and why did you apply?
What motivates you?
Why did you choose lighting as a career?
What are your hobbies?
How fo you evaluate success?
How do you negotiate work and personal life?
Tell me about a time when you missed an obvious solution to a problem.
What makes you frustrated and how do you deal with it?
If you were on a non-stop nine hour flight, who would you want sitting next to you on the plane?  Real/fictional, living or dead.

The opening is for an on call AV technician and I'd like to get a good list of questions to ask. If anyone is willing to share their favorite question or questions they've asked or been asked I would most appreciate the help in building a more complete list of potential questions than I can create on my own.
