COMMONLY ASKED INTERVIEW QUESTIONS
20
3
  • You created the best resume possible and waited
    anxiously until you heard from the recruiter or
    potential employer.

4
  • Now you need to be prepared for a great interview
    if you want an offer.

5
  • Prepare for it by studying some of the most
    common interview questions.

6
Think carefully about each of the following
questions and decide on the answer that fits you
best.
7
Honesty and thoroughness are vital. Confidence
is often the most important of all.
8
What are your strengths and weaknesses?
Describe your management experience. How many
people worked under you? What were your
responsibilities?
9
Why are you interested in working for us? Why
would you want to work here?
Why do you want to leave your current position,
or why did you leave your last position?
10
Would you be willing to travel?
  • How often could you travel?
  • Would you be willing to use your own vehicle?
  • Could you relocate? How much notice would you
    need?

11
What is your most successful professional
accomplishment?
Name a difficult situation you had with a
co-worker or subordinate and how you managed to
rectify it.
12
What do you hope to accomplish in your first
month/six months/year on the job?
13
Tell me three words that best describe you.
  • How would others describe you?
  • If I were to call your boss/former boss, how
    would he or she describe you?

14
How would you deal with an angry customer?
?
What makes you a better fit for this job than
someone else?
What motivates you?
Tell me about a time you had a disagreement with
your boss and how you handled that situation.
15
What are your career goals?
  • How long do you see yourself working with this
    company?

What do you like most and least about working in
this industry?
16
What questions do you have for me about this
company/position?
What are your salary requirements?
17
Explain any gaps in your employment history.
  • Explain any career changes and why you felt the
    need for a change.

18
Where do you see yourself in 5, 10, 20 years?
Tell me a little about yourself.
19
Try not to make the answers too pat. A
potential employer may see through ready-made
answers.
20
Also, make sure to listen. If you concentrate
too heavily on how to answer the question you may
not hear the question correctly.
21
Even with this guide, your interviewer is likely
to have some questions for which you were
unprepared.
22
Questions like "Who would win a fight between
Spiderman and Batman?"
?
And "Describe the color yellow to someone who is
blind?" have been asked by the likes of Standford
University and Spirit Airlines.
23
The secret to answering these kinds of questions
is to
  • Remain calm
  • Answer quickly
  • Do not be flustered by their unconventional nature

24
Once you have read through and answered these
questions for yourself, you will be ready to
answer them out loud to someone else.
25
GOOD LUCK!
