- Indeed’s CEO Chris Hyams has asked over 3,000 job candidates the same question for the past 15 years: Apple or Android?

And he’s not the only CEO who resorts to unusual interviewing tactics. The leaders of TripAdvisor, StockX, and CTA ask about hardship, starting dates, and clocks to pick their new hires.
