1. **Method Man / Woman**: Asks all candidates same questions (competency).[[br]]**Tactics** - Point our your relevant ones - twice.
1. **Napolean**: Show-off, talks, asks few questions.[[br]]__Tactic__ - Offer praise where possible, else silence.
1. **Suitor**: Hires attractive people.[[br]]__Tactic__ - Move on.
