FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS DURING AN BEHAVIOR
INTERVIEW Just
as a resume can be improved by careful planning, preparation for the
interview can have a huge positive impact on the outcome. You should anticipate questions you may be asked during the
interview. Listen carefully
to what the interviewer asks and make sure you fully understand the
question before beginning to answer. Listed
below are questions frequently asked in a job interview: 1.
In what type of position are you most interested? (respond with the kind of function you like and do
best -- and then describe a position related to those skills.
Tell the employer what you do best, not just the job titles you
have held before.) 2.
What jobs have you held and why did you leave your last job? (Give a summary description of each job.
If there were any problems, do not give an answer that reflects
badly on the previous employer. 3.
Why do you think you would like to work for our company? (Find out all you can about the company in advance so
that you can show specific interest in working there.) 4.
Tell me something about yourself. (This can be answered by clarifying your abilities
and experience in relation with what the employer is looking for.) 5.
We have many qualified applicants.
What do you think we should hire you for this job? (Convey that you are not in a position to evaluate
the other candidates, but that you can answer well about yourself.
Summarize why you believe that your background, experience, and
interest in the job equip you to handle the work well.) Other
