I went to take my first Polygraph test ever, got there right on time and then met the tester. He gave me a packet to fill out I filled it out then off to the test room. once there he asked me about some of the questions I didnt have a problem so we took the test. So after the test he said I he had 2 areas of concern and one wasnt a big deal.

The 1st one was "Other what I had told him did I ever steal anything over 10 dollars" I said no. So he asked me what excatly was I thinking when he asked me the question. I told him that I told my BI I had downloaded Mp3's but then she told me it wasnt a crime  (after calling the computer dept) ???? I wasnt going to argue with my BI. SO he said you where thinking about he music. I said "Yes Sir" he seemed satisfied. I told him I had been a little nervous about the subject so I tried not to think about it.

Then the second question he said I had a problem with is "Was I ever forced to quit or resign at a previous job"

I told him on this question No I WAS not ever fired. Thing was I had 25 jobs and could barley remember all of them he then looked in my packet and saw I was telling the truth. HE then said you worked as a handyman at comfort inn and quit and when asked why said " I wasnt any Good" in the reason I quit. He said to me "did they fire you. I said no sir " I quit cause I knew I wasnt good at all we both laughed.

Hethen stood up and said I dont see anything else everything else is fine your good to go.

Does this sound like I passed????

Thanks

I agree with George.  I'm sure he is more experienced than I, but I've taken 4 polygraphs and I've asked the same questions you are.  But I think, if the polygrapher thought there was something, he/she would have questioned you a little more.  They probably have to "prove" you are lying, and they have to get you to offer more or different information.

I've thought I failed before, because he didn't come out and say "you passed".  It could be a game for them too.   

In my amateur opinion, you passed.
