“I do interview senior candidates at the home office or many of our hotel or restaurant General Manager candidates. My two favorite questions are "Tell me about a failure in your career, what you learned from it, and how you've leveraged this lesson" and "All of us are misperceived at one time or another. What's the most common way you're misperceived in the workplace and why?" Both of these questions require a certain amount of self-awareness and a willingness to not give pat, normal answers that we offer experience in interviews.” WayGivingTwoSelfHomeCertainAnswersCommonCareersAwarenessAmountLessonsOffersOfficeNormalSelf AwarenessManagersCandidatesInterviewsRestaurantsHotelWillingnessOne TimeSeniorWorkplaceGeneral ManagerHome Office Author:Chip Conley
