> It also takes significant skills to ask them, interpret the responses, and follow-up with other questions.
Most people are shit at interviewing. Those that aren't still aren't qualified to psychoanalyze people.
> The problem is that not everyone easily indexes their job-experiences into neat, well-narrated vignettes that can be called up and summarized to an interviewer in real-time. It's hard stuff but it's better than other forms of interviewing.
> Tell me about a time you disagreed with your boss?
We disagreed and then I quit because I felt like there was a pattern of him not listening.
Oops wrong answer.
These questions just get gamed. People tell dressed up versions of cherry picked stories. No one tells the story of why they finally had enough and quit. No one tells the story of a discussion turning heated because both sides got a bit too attached to their opinion. No one tells the story of just giving up and accepting that they won't win.
