1, "What interested you in this position?" 

2, (Ask about previous jobs, what they entailed, etc. Focus on more recent jobs, and/or those that may have required similar skills to those I need the applicant to possess.) 

3, (Describe what we do and what the responsibilities of the position are.) "Let me tell you what we do, and what this job entails. We investigate claims of discrimination in housing, employment, and public accommodation, based on age, race, color, creed, national origin, disability, gender, sexual orientation, etc. When a member of the public comes to us saying she or he has been discriminated against, we create a case file and prepare a complaint. Thereafter the person or organization alleged to have discriminated has an opportunity to answer the complaint and present their side of the story. From there we conduct an investigation, interviewing witnesses, obtaining documents from both parties, etc." 
"Your job is to locate documents in case files; maintain case files; read aloud material that I need to be familiar with. You also will need to fix up letters and memos I have drafted in order that they be in proper form to send out, ie, margins, correct font, proper spacing, putting documents on memohead or letterhead, etc." (There may be other responsibilities specific to one's job that should be described, such as assisting with case research or dealing with charts and tables.)  

4, (Have person read something aloud.) "I want you to read this as fast as you comfortably can." (Note: people sometimes think they should read slowly. I need to know how fast the person can read aloud. You can always slow them down, but you can't speed them up.) "I will also ask you to skip to the next paragraph, or to the next numbered item, or go back to a prior paragraph or numbered item." 

5, (I sometimes ask them to locate a document in a file. That is, I hand them the file and say, "Find a letter from me to Millie Rivera-Rau dated March 9, 2008." Or, "find brief submitted by Scott LaBarre in February 2010. It will say "Memorandum of Law" at the top.")  

6, "Do you have any questions about the position?" (What they ask may help me evaluate their level of interest and level of commitment. If they focus more on hours and vacation time, they are not getting the call.)
