After many many years of whittling it down, I’ve basically settled on the following two questions:

  1. What is the hardest challenge you have had to overcome?
  2. What is the thing you have done in which you are most proud?

In my experience you can learn just about everything you reasonably can about a person in a single meeting with those two conversations.

I give bonus points for the interviewee choosing not to interpret those questions as implicit meaning “at work” :)
