Obviously, the interviewer is implying about loyalty to the state (“state” as in country, not a US State) or to an administration, and I know that they are implying that. But I am not loyal to an administration. But I know that’s what they actually meant.
How would the polygraph interpret it if I say “Yes”, because I’m answering based on my interpretation of loyalty to the constitution, but deep down, I full well know the implied question the interviewer is asking.
🤔
I wouldn’t go into the polygraph telling the person running it they were using set dreasing any more than I would tell a cop in an interrogation room that their setup was just intimidation tactics. I also don’t tell execs asking for people to participate in Myers-Briggs bullshit that they are just using modern astrology. I would just ignore the polygraph the same way I ignore other stuff and focus on the questions and answers.
I successfully go along with stupid job interview bullshit successfully even though I know they are trying to provoke a reaction. Same thing if they use a polygraph, just go along with it and bitch about it online.
That is the good advice!
I understand the bitching and they are certainly stupid. I get defensive about it a bit because not everybody has the head on their shoulders to separate things, read the online discourse, and screw themselves over. Everyone knows it’s stupid, just play the damn game. I don’t want some junior inexperienced person setup for failure because they got themselves a hot head is all. Appreciate the clarification.
