I was once interviewing someone for a senior web dev role.
Me: How do you find time to study or research about the latest trends in the tech space?
Candidate: I don't.
Me: Oh. Why?
Candidate: I don't get paid to do that.
My mind was made up even before he left the room.

@icedquinn oh. You are reading the conclusion in the opposite way that I did. the OP was saying, "no hire."
@worldsendless because the op is one of those corpos i'm talking about 
@worldsendless training your employees is the company's responsibility.
it's not the employees job to give you eight hours a day and spend their eight hours of personal time learning how to make you money more efficiently.

@icedquinn true. But an acceptable answer would have been, "I consider that part of my job, so I spend an hour or two each day on that. I also enjoy it." At least, that's my case :)
