So, tell me a little about yourself. You dont need to explain everything from birth to present day. Relevant facts about education, your career and your current life situation are fine.2. Why are you looking (or why did you leave you last job)? This should be a straightforward question to answer, but it can trip you up. Presumably you are looking for a new job (or any job) because you want to advance your career and get a position that allows you to grow as a person and an employee. Its not a good idea to mention money here, it can make you sound mercenary. And if you are in the unfortunate situation of having been downsized, stay positive and be a*rief as pos*le about it. If you were fired, youll need a good explanation. But once again, stay positive.3. Tell me what you know about this company. Do your homework before you go to any interview. Whether it*eing the VP of marketing or the mailroom clerk, you should know about the company or business youre going to work for. Has this company been in the news lately? Who are the people in the company you should know about? Do the background work, it will make you stand out as someone who comes prepared, and is genuinely interested in the company and the job.4. Why do you want to work at X Company? This should be directly related to the last question. Any research youve done on the company should have led you to the conclusion that youd want to work there. After all, youre at the interview, right? Put some thought into this answer before you have your interview, mention your career goals and highlight forward-thinking goals and career plans.5. What relevant experience do you have? Hopefully if youre applying for this position you have bags of related experience, and if thats the case you should mention it all. But if youre switching careers or trying something a little different, your experience may initially not look like its matching up. Thats when you need a little honest creativity to match the experiences required with the ones you have. People skills are people skills after all, you just need to show how customer service skills can apply to internal management positions, and so on.6. If your previous co-workers were here, what would they say about you? Ok, this is not the time for full disclosure. If some people from your past are going to say youre a boring A-hole, you dont need to bring that up. Stay positive, always, and maybe have a few specific quotes in mind. “Theyd say I was a hard worker” or even better “John Doe has always said I was the most reliable, creative problem-solver hed ever met.”7. Have you done anything to further your experience? This could include anything from night classes to hobbies and sports. If its related, its worth mentioning. Obviously anything to do with further education is great, but maybe youre spending time on a home improvement project to work on skills such as self-sufficiency, time management and motivation.8. Where else have you applied? This is a good way to hint that youre in demand, without sounding like youre whoring yourself all over town. So, be honest and mention a few other companie*ut dont go into detail. The fact that youre seriously looking and keeping your options open is what the interviewer is driving at.9. How are you when youre working under pressure? Once again, there are a few ways to answer thi*ut they should all be positive. You may work well under pressure, you may thrive under pressure, and you may actually PREFER working under pressure. If you say you crumble like aged blue cheese, this is not going to help you get your foot in the door.10. What motivates you to do a good job? The answer to this one is not money, even if it is. You should be motivated by lifes noble pursuits. You want recognition for a job well done. You want to become better at your job. You want to help others or be a leader in your field.11. Whats your greatest strength? This is your chance to shine. Youre being asked to explain why you are a great employee, so dont hold back and stay do stay positive. You could be someone who thrives under pressure, a great motivator, an amazing problem solver or someone with extraordinary attention to detail. If your greatest strength, however, is to drink anyone under the table or get a top score on Mario Kart, keep it to yourself. The interviewer is looking for work-related strengths.12. Whats your biggest weakness? If youre completely honest, you may be kicking yourself in the butt. If you say you dont have one, youre obviously lying. This is a horrible question and one that politicians have become masters at answering. They say things like “Im perhaps too committed to my work and dont spend enough time with my family.” Oh, theres a fireable offense. Ive even heard “I think Im too good at my job, it can often make people jealous.” Please, lets keep our feet on the ground. If youre asked this question, give a small, work-related flaw that youre working hard to improve. Example: “Ive been told I occasionally focus on details and miss the bigger picture, so Ive been spending time laying out the complete project every day to see my overall progress.”13. Lets talk about salary. What are you looking for? Run for cover! This is one tricky game to play in an interview. Even if you know the salary range for the job, if you answer first youre already showing all your cards. You want as much as pos*le, the employer wants you for as little as youre willing to take. Before you apply, take a look at for a good idea of what someone with your specific experience should be paid. You may want to say, “well, thats something Ive thought long and hard about and I think someone with my experience should get between X & Y.” Or, you could be sly and say, “right now, Im more interested in talking more about what the position can offer my career.” That could at least buy you a little time to scope out the situation. But if you do have a specific figure in mind and you are confident that you can get it, Id say go for it. I have on many occasions, and every time I got very close to that figure (both below and sometimes above).14. Are you good at working in a team? Unless you have the I.Q. of a houseplant, youll always answer YES to this one. Its the only answer. How can anyone function inside an organization if they are a loner? You may want to mention what part you like to play in a team though; its a great chance to explain that youre a natural leader.15. Tell me a suggestion you have made that was implemented(实施). Its important here to focus on the word “implemented.” Theres nothing wrong with having a thousand great ideas, but if the only place they live is on your notepad whats the point? Better still, you need a good ending. If your previous company took your advice and ended up going bankrupt, thats not such a great example either. Be prepared with a story about an idea of yours that was taken from idea to implementation, and considered successful. 16. Has anything ever irritated（恼怒） you about people youve worked with? Of course, you have a list as long as your arm. But you cant say that, it shows you a*eing negative and difficult to work with. The best way to answer this one is to think for a while and then say something like “Ive always got on just fine with my co-workers actually.”Use this question as a chance to show that you are a team player: “The only people I have trouble with are those who arent team players, who just dont perform, who complain constantly, and who fail to respond to any efforts to motivate them.” The interviewer is expecting a response focused on personality and personal dislikes. Surprise her by delivering an answer that reflects company values17. Is there anyone you just could not work with? No. Well, unless youre talking about murderers, racists, rapists, thieves or other dastardly characters, you can work with anyone. Otherwise you could be flagged as someone whos picky and difficult if you say, “I cant work with anyone whos a Broncos fan. Sorry.”18. Tell me about any issues youve had with a previou*oss. Arrgh! If you fall for this one you shouldnt be hired anyway. The interviewer is testing you to see if youll speak badly about your previous supervisor. Simply answer this question with exteme tact, diplomacy and if necessary, a big fat loss of memory. In short, youve never had any issues.The answer to 18 is completely wrong. I am a director at a major media companys interactive division. Our company is expanding and I am almost in a constant state of hiring. I ask a variation of this question in every single interview and if a candidate has never had one issue or disagreement with anyone, (I stated a variation: I ask if it has happened with anyone in the workplace) I peg them as a liar and reject them immediately.I went well with my previou*oss. If there is an conflict, I will be open mind and talk about facts. once decision is made, I execute it well.19. Would you rather work for money or job satisfaction? Its not a very fair question is it? Wed all love to get paid a Trump-like salary doing a job we love but thats rare indeed. Its fine to say money is important, but remember that NOTHING is more important to you than the job. Otherwise, youre just someone looking for a bigger paycheck.20. Would you rather be liked or feared? I have been asked this a lot, in various incarnations. The first time I just drew a blank and said, “I dont know.” That went over badly, but it was right at the start of my career when I had little to no experience. Since then Ive realized that my genuine answer is “Neither, Id rather be respected.” You dont want to be feared because fear is no way to motivate a team. You may got the job done but at what cost? Similarly, if youre everyone*est friend youll find it difficult to make tough decisions or hit deadlines. But when youre respected, you dont have to be a complete bastard or a lame duck to get the job done.21. Are you willing to put the interests of X Company ahead of your own? Again, another nasty question. If you say yes, youre a corporate whore who doesnt care about family. If you say no, youre disloyal to the company. Im afraid that youll probably have to say yes to this one though, because youre trying to be the perfect employee at this point, and perfect employees dont cut out early for Jimmy*a*all game.it is situational. if you ; if you . Ethics and professionalism22. So, explain why I should hire you. As Im sure you know, “because Im great” or “I really need a job” are not good answers here. This is a time to give the employer a laundry list of your greatest talents that just so happen to match the job description. Its also good to avoid taking potshots at other potential candidates here. Focus on yourself and your talents, not other peoples flaws.23. Finally, do you have any questions to ask me? Ill finish the way I started, with one of the most common questions asked in interviews. This directly relates to the research youve done on the company and also gives you a chance to show how eager and prepared you are. Youll probably want to ask about benefits if they havent been covered already. A good generic one is “how soon could I start, if I were offered the job of course.” You may also ask what youd be working on. Specifically, in the role youre applying for and how that affects the rest of the company. Always have questions ready, greeting this one with a blank stare is a rotten way to finish your interview. Good luck and happy job hunting.ponder for a moment, and then ask your interviewer “what aspect of your job do you find most challenging”.I would ask the interviewer, “Why do you like to work here?”24. Where do you want to be in 5 to years?They dont want to hear in the same job you are interviewing for. Ultimately, the HR people are searching for someone who can handle the job now, and has the potential to grow into a high level management job in the future. Do you have those g
