Interesting. Nobody even bother to ask me what positions I have available. :-(
What would you tell them if they did ask (assuming you tell them what positions are available)?
Furthermore, would them asking you what positions are available make any difference in where they stand amongst the other applicants when you start the hiring process?

Of course. If you want a job, you would ask already. I can pass the resume to other hiring managers.
So if we think some of the questions are asinine, we have a bad attitude? Could it be that some of the questions are asinine?
Where did you get this idea?
I attended an interview where they quizzed me on pretty in depth technical details where at my management level I didn't know. I think that's pretty asinine.
One can teach technical skills but can't really teach good attitude and work ethics.
Do you really think it will work well if you hire someone to be a computer programmer or software enginner, with no prior IT experience or education. Then teach them the technical skills?

Please don't be a smarta**. It's relatively speaking.
A candidate with great attitude but slightly less skills is always going to be hired before anybody even think about the one with good skills but bad attitude. That is unless you are Bill Gates or Steve Jobs, then your attitude is of non-issue.

It can.
There is a truth to the idea that you can teach skills a lot easier than you can a work ethic and a drive to do well. So, it can work to take someone with no experience who REALLY wants to learn. Guessing not in a high level position, but entry level or the IT equivalent.
Let me stress this again: your technical skill only counts as 1/3 of your total performance if that. :-) The sooner you get that, the sooner you will be on your way to some major advancement.
