What kind of interview question is this?

I just had a job interview today and one of the questions my interviewers asked me was what my favorite color was.

Seriously, they asked what my favorite color was.

What does my favorite color have anything to do with any job what so ever?

Sounds like a trick question, probably some hidden pshycology as to what colors mean. Blue & black mean your dark & sad, yellow means your happy, etc.

It was indeed a trick question. The correct answer is, "clear."

Most interview questions have absolutely nothing to do with how well you can actually do the job. This isn't an unheard of question. If you Google interview questions you'll find much weirder stuff.
