Whenever I start getting hit with a bunch of questions, it starts to feel like a test, my answers get short, and the conversation sputters. Most annoying questions are "what kind of music do you like?" and "What do you do for fun?".
Indeed, and the more natural the introduction to the topic, the better. It should be a conversation, not an interview.
