I'm very sympathetic to wanting to weed out people who'd CYA in my org. I'd start by conveying our culture, and go from there. The Amazon interviewing system came across as uncaring big-corporate cattle pipeline. So it was effective in making me withdraw my application. (Maybe that was a good thing for both parties.) > People have a really hard time faking it. Seriously try it. I know multiple storytelling-skilled people who I suspect can fake this easily. Most of them seem to go to pains to only use their powers for good. Interestingly, those ones have a very negative reaction when they sense someone being dishonest/manipulative. Though, the one who hasn't always used their powers for good... is CEO for something you use. :) I wonder whether some of the differences in how people think about interviews are due to varying strengths of the interviewer. For example, I wouldn't be surprised if those storytelling-skilled people are better than average at detecting when someone else is fabricating elements of a narrative.
