The correct answer is "I got a bit ratty with myself for not solving a problem in my own, self-assigned, very short time limit."

The correcxt answer is:

"I refuse to answer silly numpty questions at interviews"

"If you were a biscuit what would you be" and "if you were an animal what would you be" are two that I've heard.

How can you be a biscuit?

I mean, I can sort of see how you could imagine being an animal for a few moments, but a biscuit?! Why not be a spoon instead, or an iceberg?

You also think New Labour is fantastic, IR35 is great, Tony Blair was a sex god and paying more tax fair.

You are a muppet.

HTH

And I also think you are a jolly nice guy...which must make you a complete knob jockey by your reckoning.

I don't think Sal ever went that far, but she did express a certain desire for Des Browne at one point.

How do you remember these things?!!!!

laugh all you wish - I was a recruiter for 6 years - on the resourcing side - used to spend weeks where all I did was interview. - One tiome we had to find 300 people for a well known clothes store - any idea how many people you need to interview to find at least 300 people who can walk and chew gum at the same time.

why would you want to employ the sort of person who would chew gum in an interview?

may get some 'mess' on the customers goods - also probably a bit too public for my liking

Hob Nob - Resilient in all situations, but probably a bit of an obvious answer
Rich tea - Collapses in a work situation
Custard cream - a bit common
Jammie Dodger - Squidgy in the middle
Malted Milk - a bit of a cow
Garibaldi - a little flat

etc.
