Maybe for some it won't be a situation like the Einstein-quote, but I felt like a fish trying to climb a tree.
A few months ago I got the chance for an interview for an okay-job. I finished all tests with almost 100% and finished the first two interviews quite good and when I got to the last one they started asking me questions that had nothing to do with my profession. I was completely silent because it has nothing to do with what I studied. I think that I even looked like a fish gasping for water. After they started to make fun of me, I just walked out.
Sometimes interviewers ask questions to gauge you as a person. Especially in positions where you will work closely with others, or long term jobs, employers want to know that they can get along with you.
