HIVE MIND: Imagine you’re the manager hiring someone for a technical cybersecurity job. What non-obvious questions help you judge the candidate’s skill/suitability? What makes those questions useful?
That is, assume you’ve done the standard complement of job interview questions such as background and tool familiarity. I’m looking for stuff specific to some part of cybersecurity. It’s okay to get specific to your part of the field.

Memory....
The best interview question I was ever asked.
Was for printing plant manager.
The question was:
"When was the last time you visited a museum, which one, and why?"
Had nothing to do with the job.
It was to show character, and if it fit with the rest of the crew.
I got the job.
