Questions like when have you been happiest in your career? Unhappiest? A bunch of stuff about their core values and examples of how you or previous organizations have reflected those, have not reflected those, when two came into tension, etc.


Oh, those are pretty standard job interview questions; I wouldn't call that a psych questionnaire, but that's just me.


I mean, those are ultimately psych questions. It's common for those to come up in an interview, but very non-standard to ask someone to write about those topics before you've talked to anyone at the company.

And at the end of the day it's the asymmetry of their process that I have an issue with.
