Fallon’s questions were what you’d expect when applying to a nondescript entry-level position: “How’d you hear about the position? Why do you want this job?” And Trump’s responses were subdued, at least by his standards. “Donald, this is a high-profile position,” Fallon asked. “Is media attention something you would be comfortable with?” “Not at all,” Trump replied. “I’d be very, very uncomfortable with it.” ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4176721/donald-trump-jimmy-fallon-interview/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4176721/donald-trump-jimmy-fallon-interview/"},"headline":"Watch Jimmy Fallon Give Donald Trump a Mock Job Interview for the Presidency","datePublished":"2016-01-12T08:57:39.000Z","dateModified":"2026-02-22T13:59:29.580Z","description":"Trump says he's willing to relocate for the job","url":"https://time.com/4176721/donald-trump-jimmy-fallon-interview/","keywords":["republicans","2016 Election topic","Television","politics","jimmy fallon","Election","presidency","Donald Trump"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Nash Jenkins","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/p-nash-jenkins/"}],"articleSection":"Entertainment","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/section/entertainment/","name":"Entertainment"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4176721/donald-trump-jimmy-fallon-interview/","name":"Watch Jimmy Fallon Give Donald Trump a Mock Job Interview for the Presidency"}}]}] ```
