I am always amused at the often-heard career advice “When you go to a job interview, just be yourself!”

Be yourself?

If you were being yourself, you wouldn’t sit on a chair and answer questions like a fourth-grader taking an oral exam. If you heard some of the ridiculous questions that job interviewers ask candidates and you were being yourself, you’d get up and leave.
