1. How Long Are You Willing To Fail At This Job Before You Succeed?

This is amongst the favorite interview questions of Jon Sterling, Co-Founder of Interview Circuit. As per him, most recruiters do not have a particular answer in mind when they ask this question, and use this question to see how a job applicant reacts. 

He added that, thought a variety of answers would be satisfactory in this scenario, the best answer would be to let know that he / she is willing to stick with the job for as long as it takes to succeed. This answer demonstrates a candidate’s endurance and shows that he/she is in it for the long-run.
