Are you supposed to react to provocative job interviews like a doormat?

[scooogy]

I've had an interviewer ask provocative questions in which company people like him had been criticized for their missing qualifications, which got obvious ironically in his provocative questions. He pointed out "missing" skills which were on the one hand similar to those I had and on the other hand not even needed, as I could see from another job ad later for the *same* job.

Stress questions and stress simulations are not uncommon.

Seeing how you react in these instances is equally a test as your actual response.

You never act like a doormat.

Interview is not supposed to be a one way road.

You can ask them questions as well and if you feel like the questions are not related to the job, feel free to point out.
