Well, I mean questions like:

You often don't care about other peoples problems.

True
False

I never know how to answer lol because honestly I don't, I tend to just ignore people.

Or even better:

You see a coworker crying, obviously upset. Do you try and comfort them, or ignore them?

I'd ignore them, but my mum says to say try and comfort, or  I wn't get the job.

The evaluation portion of the application? I hate those as I feel like they're so pointless and extremely lazy of the company to even consider using them in their applications. They're basically meant to skip part of the interviewing process which practically destroys the reason behind a person-to-person interview.

I bet about 90% of people either lie on those or simply don't follow directions on them.

Those portions of applications drive me crazy. I try and be as honest as I can, but one application rejected me mid-application for saying if my co-workers family member died that I would offer to switch shifts with them. Obviously some companies are not as open to kindness.
