Hi Sanvean. I recently went through an online application process on our mud, Avatar MUD, and have a great deal of experience in hiring in the real world.

One of the things you want to avoid is asking 'yes or no' questions. Those are far too easy for an applicant to bull his way through. Of course he is going to answer yes to the question: 'Do you work well with others.' He wants the job!

Use open-ended questions that force the player to reveal some of his personality. A better question might be: "How would you deal with a difficult person if you were a new immortal and there were no others online? What would you do" Maybe give the applicant a complete scenario and have him work through it.

Hope this helps. Good luck in your search.
