Apple Mac Genius interview questions

As much as I'd like to think that I was declined the job for a lack of competency, I truly know that Apple retail does not have a clear strategy for promoting from within. I have not seen a logical pattern when it comes to either hiring or promoting employees. I love the company more than anything and that is why I am a part of Apple, but will not say that I haven't been applying for other jobs...

They are looking for a "type." Since I was 30 years older than most everyone else I felt a bit out of place. They began by showing a film about the greatness of Apple. One too many location shots in China. Then they asked the stupidest question... "What pet would you be and what is your name?" They just wanted to see who was rude enough to interrupt others. Then they took us down into six groups of four and asked us to explain our last act of giving. I wasn't prepared for such a personal question.
