I have a polygraph test coming in the beginning of December and wanted to get a few things straight before I walk in. They county I applied for gave me a HUGE packet full of open ended questions to answer before my test. My question is this, at the test site are they typically yes or no answers or am I allowed to elaborate? I mean if someone asked me if I have ever drank then drove I would say yes. But really I haven't driven drunk, Ive drank waited a long period of time then drove sober. Also, I hate to admit to things I did in the far past because I fear I will be judged on this. I'm going to tell the truith but I would like the opportunity to explain myself.
Also, are these tests measuring if I actually lie, or to see what kind of person I am, or both?
I guess I'm just over thinking this because I really want the job, I fear I may sell myself short.
