Here are some of the toughest questions from other countries.

From the US: “Would you rather fight one horse-sized duck, or 100 duck-sized horses?” – Whole Foods Market, meat cutter job candidate

From France: “How would explain the job of consultant to a 4 – 6 year old child?” – Capgemini Consulting, junior consultant role.

From Canada: “Which Game of Thrones character do you like most?” – Bench, accounting associate role.

I think my toughest interview question ever was, “Do you have a sense of humour?”
I answered “No”. I didn’t get the job, which just goes to prove the guy had no sense of humour at all!

!Note – We will definitely do a role play based on these.
