Anything in an interview or on an application about dislike, hate, can't stand, anything negative, is a trick question.

I find it strange an interviewer would ask what you think you might like least about a job that you don't have yet. That's like asking what is the hardest part of raising kids when you don't have any.

When I get asked this about PAST jobs, I answer with something that isn't terribly negative. I say something like "I feel my skills were worth more than the position paid" or "it was difficult to move into a higher, more challenging position within the company because they preferred to hire outside"... all of those things could even be a lie, but they aren't going to call your last employer and ask. None of those are terribly negative.

If I were asked the question you did, I would say "If I am chosen to fill this position, I'm not going into it looking for a negative experience or to find things I don't like. I believe I can adapt and overcome any potential issues."

Above all, even if you hate things on the job, don't complain about it. After all, there are usually other people who would be happy to have the job. If you are unhappy, look for a new job on your time off.

Never go on rants during an interview or say how much you don't like something. A person who does that comes off as a complainer and will probably not get hired. I've seen people get fired for complaining too much, but the employer doesn't say that, they just say it was performance related.

What about our position do you find the most and least attractive?

When you are asked this, it means what about the possible job do you like, and what do you think you might not like as much. This is actually a tricky question. You are being asked to evaluate the position (the job you are applying for), but you do not want to sound too negative. Be honest, but be tactful. Tell what you like about the job-- why you want to be hired, what interested you about this particular position. But as for what you find the least attractive, that would depend on how much you know about the job duties or the hours or the pay.

Why didn't you like about your last job?

Tell the truth. There is always something a person does not like about their job even though the rest of it is good. Think of the least appealing aspect of it. As an example, if you work in a fast food restaurant and you liked working with the patrons but did not like closing the store, say so. That is all there is to it. You don't have to give every thing you did not like but at least one thing needs to be put on an application or at a job interview that asks this question.
