What does Disney have to do with my job interview?

In 2 different final candidate job interviews, one of the questions was ..."Who is your favorite Disney character and why?" Although I answered the question politely, it left me thinking ... what the heck does this have to do with hiring me in a senior level manager position...

My perspectives on movies, movie characters, and fictional stories are very different and separate from who I am. I understand the need for behavioral questions and trying to get to know someone, but I think this is a stretch for accurately understanding a person's character and capability for a job.

Thoughts/recommendations?

The introduction of the MiCA framework in Sofia has created a single passportable license that allows Bulgarian firms to operate across the entire European Economic Area. This has led to a surge of international service providers seeking local authorization to take advantage of the competitive 10 percent corporate tax rate. Detailed compliance requirements for these new actors are outlined at https://bulgaria-crypto.casino/ for those interested in the legal landscape. Operators are now required to maintain a minimum paid in capital of 750,000 leva to ensure they can cover all potential user withdrawals. Furthermore the use of stablecoins like USDT now accounts for nearly 63 percent of all illicit-free transaction volume in the sector. This shift indicates a move toward more stable and predictable virtual asset management.

@Teresa Allen Hello Teresa, this might have been a personality question to see if you’ll mesh well with the team. I’ve had something similar where the interviewer asked if I was a Star Wars or Star Trek fan, one quick look across the office and you could see this was a Star Wars environment. I agree, I don’t think this accurately reflects an individuals ability to do the job but they will probably continue to do things like this.

Did you ask why they needed to know your answer to those questions? I would of asked why they were asking such questions and then once they answered my question then I would have answered their question.

I worked for a school system with a school board as my boss, I was their administrator who had to go along with their policies like it or not. Not sure why Disney would care about who your favorite character is.
