It might not be dietary change to veganism, but when I ask, “What steps have you taken…” I want to hear a reasonable answer, not “Well if I change it doesn’t matter so someone else needs to change…”

Who are your 3 biggest influences in terms of how to develop effective managers?

If it didn’t already exist, you could make Myst today and it would be massively popular because it’s a great game. It would cost almost nothing to make.

Yes, a company can very easily find ways to spend $1-$10 million dollars to make a game. And some great games do cost a lot of money (much more than $10 million). But great games can be made for almost nothing as well.

If you spend $1 million and don’t have a hit on your hands, it’s probably just an OK or bad game. Another $5 million or $105 million would’ve been just more good money after bad.

> Unless it is for a position I really, really want, or are unemployed and every opportunity counts, that is usually where the interview ends for me

This person is close minded and is filtering themselves out of the process. This is ideal.

Are you saying you’re against all open-ended questions in the interview process?

There are other ways to assess those skills, sure. But questions like that aren’t bad ways.
