Answer to Question 1

3
Rationale 1: Becoming a nurse anesthetist in 10 years is a long-term goal.
Rationale 2: Being available to come in for extra shifts is not measurable and is not a goal. A short-term goal statement would be, I hope to work at least three extra shifts each month.
Rationale 3: Going on a mission trip is a short-term goal because it involves a time frame of the next 6 months to a year.
Rationale 4: Getting a job and moving on with life are not goals. A short-term goal statement would be, I want to work and save 5,000 in the next year.
Global Rationale:

Answer to Question 2

2
Rationale 1: It may be a legitimate question and a question the candidate has not thought about, but it is illegal to ask.
Rationale 2: It is illegal for the interviewer to ask personal questions such as questions regarding how many children the candidate has or the candidate's marital status.
Rationale 3: This may be something that the manager would like to know about and might impact the candidate's ability to complete the job, but it is illegal to ask in an interview.
Rationale 4: This is something the candidate should consider, but the manager should not ask about it during the interview.
