Help!
For various reasons I have never had to look for or interview potential housemates before. Reading the various horror stories that have appeared on here over the years, I was hoping for some help.
So far I know I need to figure out if I can put up with them for more than 5 seconds before wanting to strangle them, But how do I ask about drug taking, partying, messiness levels and other traits that might drive a person batty?
I will definitely be asking them about what they would do if they brought a one night stand home but then had to leave early the next morning: a) leave person in the house when they are going out or b) person leaves when they do in the morning. Anyone who answers 'a' is not in the running.
(This is because I had a housemate in London that would leave the one night stand in the house when they left for work. Not fun to discover a naked man in the kitchen hours after said housemate had left for work. )
So pretty please HELP!
