But we all lie about it so the question is futile.

Like of course I'm going to be passionate about "x" when interviewing somewhere. If I didn't say it I don't get hired. Ergo....

I think good answers, in this case, are more than "I'm passionate about x". A specific scenario where you were really interested in a specific scientific question related to the job at hand would be much better. Again, useful if you're going to be an engineer at Tesla, not useful for a cashier at Taco Bell.

But we're just gonna find the most efficient answer template and lie again.

Y'all training us to lie.
