Some tips on what NOT to do.

-Don't ask questions designed specifically to gauge how the candidate 'thinks'. If you do pose such a question have another interview with the candidate some days later so that the candidate can think though various solutions.

- Don't ask questions which are cliched like 1) Tell me about yourself 2) Tell me your strengths and weaknesses

-Don't continue interviewing a candidate if you have decided not to hire him/her.

What you can do:

- Ask them to look up an answers using google/search

- Paid assignments
