Interview Question and Answer “If you could, would you retire right now?”

The job interviewer is keen to recruit an employee who is passionate about the job, not simply just looking for work to gain a salary.

This job interview question “if you could, would you retire right now?” is a sneaky question to check your work ethic.

If you state to the interviewer, that you would retire as soon as possible, the employer knows that you are not committed to the role.

Whereas the interviewee who explains how they enjoy the work and how for them the job isn’t just about a salary but is about doing something you love, the employer is more likely to recruit you.
