17 Real Job Interview Questions You Don't Want To Be Asked

confused

With the help of employee-reviews site Glassdoor.com's Interview Questions & Reviews section, we've compiled 17 of the strangest interview questions asked in the past few months.

The questions come from interviews with companies including Walmart, Google, and JPMorgan Chase.

They include brainteasers:

"There are 25 horses and 5 race tracks. How many races need to be run to select the top 5 horses?"

And the insulting:

"What would you say if I told you that you aren't ambitious?"

They are 17 real-life interview questions you never, ever want to be asked in a job interview.

If for some reason you came in late to work (weather, woke up late, etc), how would you compensate our company for the time?
