CriticMaestro:
You are very wrong my friend, I dont blame u, I blame the illiterate mod that pushed this to fp to deceive people, any company's HR is responsible in knowing its strength and weakness in all departments of an organization, the reason why they act such question is to strengthen the channel the feel is targetting the required candidates the need in their organization..please dont do that again

Edubestconsult:
Big FAT lie!

N:B- I am an HR Professional

coolcharm:
are you a programmer?

skademzy:
Wrong. I attended an interview haven been reffered by the headnof the interview team. He sent me text before it got to my turn never to mention the staff that reffered me because that's where others who came in before me got things wrong most... Best answers depends on the motive of your interviewers.

I had always wondered why some interviewers ask the where did you hear about this job question until an experienced HR person told me the truth.
He said they asked to know if you heard about the job through a staff of the company i.e referral basis and how strong the referral is. This atimes guarantees you the job. So if you know a staff of any company you are going for an interview do state the person and not say the usual social media or company website answer.

You are wrong

The question is usually ask to know those with strong connection.

Few years back I didn't get a job from a coy cos of that question. Eight of us made it to the final stage and they couldn't separate us until one of them asked us

"How did you get here?"

Answers like: My brother works here, Through the Hr, bla bla etc were flowing. When it got to my turn, I said via advert ( it wasn't advertised anyway, just a random CV submission I usually do) and that was the end. Till today, they never get back to me.

not nigerian recruiters....im am mainly talking of unadvertised jobs that get leaked to the public. Do not be deceived. A subsidiary of NNPC just concluded underground recruitment and do you think this question in this context would mean what you said....when they didnt publish the vacancy.

What if you are indirectly putting the "whistle blower" in trouble?

You are not informed.....Forget theory, these are practical experiences of unemployed graduates in Nigeria

sirpharrell:
I think different interviewers may have different motives for asking this question. I am an employer of over 300 people and conduct interviews myself sometimes. Because of the type of business I head, I prefer employing new staff that are recommended by trusted current members of staff. When I ask the question, it is aimed at getting to know who referred the potential employee. In almost every recruiting process, you will be spoiled by choices so referral by a trusted aide of the Director or management staff may give you an edge. This I can say for my company which is a relatively small/medium scale private company where staff can be entrusted with some cash everyday. So trust is almost as important as competence. In larger companies, the motive may be different.
