• Is it possible for me to get a small loan?
• What is it that your company does?
• Can I see the break room?
• Are you (the interviewer) married?
• What are your psychiatric benefits?

• How many (insert name of ethnic group) do you have working here?
• What does this company consider a good absenteeism record?

• Why do I have to fill out this job application? It’s all on my résumé.
