HR insisted to ask (on asking) me how much money I (would) prefer.I said, the company should have the salary range. I am ok with it as I am more interesting (interested) in (the) company.

8 R& w& ~; M+ H2 w0 ]HR asked why I immigrated to Canada not USA. I thought it was a trick question. So I gave him my answer: I did not know how to immegrate to USA. As USA has many good company like your company. If I knew (had known)how to immegrate to USA, I would do it (have done so) instead of canada.

What wemt wrong?

PS: There were many language errors in the original posting. I corrected directly for the most part but the conversational part was corrected in ().By the way, I don't think he failed the interviews because of his language problem.

I would not like his answers either if I were the interviewer. I really think this guy should think about why the people asked those questions.

this guy screwed himself big time. I would nicely say "Thank you for coming" and kick him out of the meeting room if I was the hiring manager. None of his responses were appropriate to a professional manner.

It seems that the job seeker is not so cooperative in the interview. He/she should have answered the questions in a more skillful manner.  Unfortunately, the answers might have been annoying to the HR manager.

Think about the interviewee's attitude. If you are the interviewer, what kind of person you think he is?
