42,129 technical recruiter interview questions shared by candidates

The last question I was asked was a math question, which I was not expecting at all. It was a word problem that had to do with calculating the profit made by a staffing company after placing a candidate at a new position with a client.

The interviewer didn't ask that many questions but spent considerable amount of time telling me about the job. That's where I learned they were recruiting for a sourcer (not in the JD) and not a full-life cycle recruiter.

This is not a question, but they will have you source and walk through a live REQ basically doing free work for the company. They are awkwardly watching you the whole time and the whole experience is very unnerving and, in the end, is in no way a reflection of how recruiting should really work.
