Give them a couple of minutes to tell you about themselves.  If they are not sure of what to say, ask them to give you a summary of who they are - personally and professionally.  This should give you some insight on how they view themselves.

Ask them, "Why don't you tell me what you know about XYZ Company (Your Company)?"
This tells you if they were interested enough to do some research and what they learned about your company.
 

This is an opportunity for a candidate to position themselves, explaining what they bring to the organization which is unique.  A serious candidate will have thought through what distinguishes themselves from other similar professionals they have met and worked with.

 

Ask them, "What would you do your first 90 days in the job?"
This will give some insight on how the candidate would approach joining a new organization.  You should also get a sense of how the candidate will fit within the organization.

 

Finally, an unusual question you can ask is either, "If you learned you only has six months to live, what would you do with your remaining time? or If you won $50 million in the lottery, what would you do with the money? 

This will give you a sense of what is important to them in their life.

 

Halloween has origins in the ancient Celtic festival known as Samhain [pronounced: sow- wen] (Irish pronunciation: [ˈsˠaunʲ]; from the Old Irish samhain, possibly derived from Gaulish samonios). The festival of Samhain is a celebration of the end of the harvest season in Gaelic culture, and is sometimes regarded as the "Celtic New Year". Traditionally, the festival was a time used by the ancient Celtic pagans to take stock of supplies and slaughter livestock for winter stores. The ancient Celts believed that on October 31st, now known as Halloween, the boundary between the living and the deceased dissolved, and the dead become dangerous for the living by causing problems such as sickness or damaged crops. The festivals would frequently involve bonfires, into which the bones of slaughtered livestock were thrown. Costumes and masks being worn at Halloween goes back to the Celtic traditions of attempting to copy the evil spirits or placate them, in Scotland for instance where the dead were impersonated by young men with masked, veiled or blackened faces, dressed in white.
