What sort of questions have people been asked at interviews?

‘Recall a time when you were assigned a task outside of your job description. How did you handle the situation? What was the outcome?’

‘Tell me about a time when you were asked to do something you had never done before. How did you react? What did you learn?’

One of the recent programs I interviewed at (large institution) said that they are still working on a lot of application files and expect interviews to go up until May. I'm waiting myself on a few more programs to hear back from.
