7."Tell me about a time you fired someone."
05:39 |
Firing
someone is a difficult task. Usually you will not be asked this question unless
it is for a management position. You should emphasize a couple of key things
when you answer this question.
6."Tell me about a time you made a poor decision."
05:36 |
This
question is similar to the mistake question. So first, let’s think about what
lesson we want to learn.
2."Are you a risk taker or do you like to stay away from risks?"
21:21 |
This
also depends on the position. But in most cases, I believe someone who likes to
take risks is a better candidate. If you choose to answer saying you are a risk
taker, you should include why and how
you
take risks.
1."Which category do you fall under?
19:24 |
A person who anticipates a problem well, or a
person who reacts to a problem well?"
15."Do you work well under pressure?"
19:21 |
In
most cases, the best answer to this question is answering yes. Working well
under pressure is a good trait to have. However, I think if you answer that you
work the same with pressure and without pressure, the interviewer will be more
impressed. However, you will need to explain in words why this is better. Here
are some of my answers.
14."How do you make important decisions?"
19:19 |
There
are many ways to answer this question, and if you have a reasonable method of
making decisions, it will probably be sufficient. One answer I thought of
included not being afraid of askingyour manager. You can follow up by saying
even the best needs mentoring, and you always want to improve. So basically,
this could work as an answer, but depending on the job, you might have a better
shot with an answer like my example.
13."How do you handle change?"
19:18 |
"Are
you good at dealing with change?"
Dealing
with change is common in the work place. A simple yes will not be sufficient to
impress the interviewer. This is another type of question where everyone will
have similar answers. Of course everyone is going to claim being excellent
dealing with change. You got to communicate that you are really good at dealing
with change. Here are some examples for you.
12."Do you manage your time well?"
20:48 |
"In
what ways do you manage your time well?"
The
first question is a little easier. The second question is more difficult
because it requires an example. I’m going to give an example for the second
question and you should be able to use it for the first question as well.
11."In what ways are you organized and disorganized?"
20:47 |
This
is another variation to the previous question. This question is a little better
because the question wants you to identify an area you are disorganized. Make sure to emphasize the organized portion of the answer. If you are truly an
organized person, then it is really tough thinking about an area you are
disorganized. So thinking ahead of time will allow you to make a good
impression with a solid answer.
10."Are you an organized person?"
20:45 |
You
can think that this question is stupid. Actually, I do. Everyone will say they
are organized. Who will admit otherwise? You should know that everyone will say
similar things.
9. "What does failure mean to you?"
20:44 |
This
is quite simple. I don’t see many right answers so this is what I suggest. You
can believe in two of the following.
8. "What does success mean to you?"
20:43 |
There
are many things you can say. This type of question doesn’t have a wrong answer.
All answers will be correct. So the best answer is how good you can make the
answer.
7. "If you could change one thing about your personality, what would it be and why?"
20:42 |
This
question is another variation to the weakness question. You can provide a
similar type of question unless it is the same person asking them. To answer
this question, think of a person you respect and the trait
they have that you really like
6. "What do you want to be doing five years from now?"
20:40 |
"Where
do you see yourself in five years?"
This
is a similar question to the short term question, but you should answer it a
little differently. Here are some examples.
5. "What are your long term goals?"
09:22 |
This
question is asked to see how serious a candidate is about his or her career.
Some people might not know their long term goals, and some people might have
long term goals of becoming rich and retiring early.
