Nah, I worked at a bookstore too long. I have automatic responses ingrained depending on the situation.

Most other situations it's Neil Gaiman's American Gods.

Chances are they'd assume it's some obscure novel they've never heard of. Most people don't know the movie was based on a comic.

>Google Search, commonly referred to as Google Web Search or Google, is a web search engine owned by Google Inc. It is the most-used search engine on the World Wide Web,[4] handling more than three billion searches each day.[5][6] As of February 2015 it is the most used search engine in the US with 64.5% market share.[7]

>The order of search on Google's search-results pages is based, in part, on a priority rank called a "PageRank". Google Search provides many different options for customized search, using Boolean operators such as: exclusion ("-xx"), alternatives ("xx OR yy OR zz"), and wildcards ("Winston * Churchill" returns "Winston Churchill", "Winston Spencer Churchill", etc.).[8] The same and other options can be specified in a different way on an Advanced Search page.

>The main purpose of Google Search is to hunt for text in publicly accessible documents offered by web servers, as opposed to other data, such as images or data contained in databases. It was originally developed by Larry Page and Sergey Brin in 1997.

No one really cares about your hobbies or habits during a job interview. Their superiors have already decided whether or not to hire you.

If you have connections in the company, you have a good chance of getting in. If you went to a prestigious university or have already worked at prestigious companies, you'll probably get in. Otherwise, your chances are usually about one in ten, assuming they're actually looking to hire someone.

It's a sad fact that most job interviews are just a matter of interviewers going through the motions.

You'd be surprised. For grunt jobs it might not come up, but for higher levelled jobs where there's can be a dinner component, hobby questions do come up. Let me tell you, those questions can be a bitch unless you have some good canned answers.
