    You shouldn't hire me if my job involves doing anything fraudulent or illegal.

    Ok, just say back to them: "You know, you're right. I do have a tendency to do way too much work or to help others too much. I'm a work-a-holic at heart, but I can change all of that if you'd like?"

    These are really obnoxious interview questions. I hope it hasn't become standard practice!

    To answer YOUR question, I would reply, "Because you might be hoping to find someone completely wrong for the job, so you can have a laugh?" ;-)

    Because you're the kind of organization which needs improvement. I have the ideas and the motivation to improve your profit margin and customer satisfaction. On this logic you should not hire me.

    Best answer: I tend to want to take on more tasks than others, this can cause me stress. I have learned to manage my stress by prioritizing tasks and becoming more efficient with my time usage.
