Not a specific question, but I noticed that it was all based on past experiences with no real structure in the interviews, which means there is no objective measure of identifying qualified candidates while also leaving room for several types of interview bias.

My biggest problem is not with the questions, but rather lack-thereof. So when I didn't get an offer even after a fantastic interview, I did ask for some feedback. I was told the interviewer did not think I had the metrics background that he wanted, but in our interview he never asked nor did he bring that up to me personally. I think he rejected me for an appearance reason, or worse, because my spouse is ill. So angry that I am debating an EEOC claim. Here is my honest advice: when you think you are done, literally ask if he/she has any worries that you did not touch on. I feel like my feedback was on topics that the interviewer should have raised.
