Silicon Valley companies and tech startups are known for asking job candidates weird questions during the interview process. For example, it is not uncommon for job seekers to be asked things like why a tennis ball is fuzzy or how the internet works as a way to get a better understanding of how someone thinks and if they’re a good fit for the organization or not.
The NFL combine is pro football’s version of a job interview, where players are measured for speed, strength and size, and for the last several years, some of them have been asked highly inappropriate questions to gain a better understanding of something else entirely.
