nterview questions usually try to work out whether or not you can actually do the job; however, some interviewers come up with very strange questions to see how people cope with them (or, if they’re honest, interviewers get bored and want to spice things up!).

There were about an hour of STAR questions. All pretty basic, however in my case the interviewer (who was weak by his own admittance) did not ask one of the questions properly.
