(UK) Jeremy Kyle was shown during the day to convince kids to stay in school

Think about it, this show was about uneducated people in poverty fighting over who is the biological dad, cheating or other undesirable situations. The UK government made it so this was shown during the days so kids who faked being sick to get off school would think twice about skipping school again, lest they become like a Jeremy Kyle guest

If they rebooted Bionicle for the 2nd time you guys still wouldn't buy enough for it to last longer than a year

"We got ____ before GTA 6" meme was invented by Rockstar

This meme feels suspiciously like free marketing for Rockstar. Most games these days are delayed for years, so why is this game so special? In fact, who even cares that much about GTA these days in general? 5 was okay but I know barely anyone who actually plays it nowadays

"I'm not telling you that, you should already know my details"

Anyone else find this one infuriating?

Yes obviously we know your details, that's the entire point of data protection. If we didn't ask your details we could speak to anyone. You just know these people would be the first to complain if we started talking about their financial situation with their neighbour

Are strength questions too subjective?

I've had multiple interviews across departments but my latest one has stumped me.

I didn't get the job, but the feedback left no comments. I got 4 across the board on my behaviour questions but on all my strength questions I received 1s! I've looked into plenty of threads into this but there seems to be no general consensus.

Are strengths based on how "enthusiastic" you come across or do they want detailed answers? Because I'm a pretty monotone, so I definitely know I don't come across enthusiastic even if I am. I know you're not supposed to do STAR, but the questions seem to want an example anyway. "Tell me a time you had to adapt to a change?" with 2 mins to answer.

It doesn't help that I've had similar questions in one department and got a 3 but on this occasion I got a 1 for the same answer.

I've been selected to do a video call with someone from Vinted for customer research. I rarely use the platform so is there any burning questions you guys have for them and I'll be sure to ask?

Lol at the grammar mistake in their email (it's definitely official)
