Top 5 Job Interview Questions with Answers
1. Tell me something
about yourself
Be prepared to talk about yourself, and why you're an ideal candidate for the
position. The interviewer wants to know why you're an excellent fit for the job.
Try to answer questions about yourself without giving too much, or too little,
personal information. Share some of your personal interests and experiences
that don't relate directly to work, such as a favourite hobby or a brief account of
where you grew up, your education, and what motivates you.
sample
When I’m not working, I like to spend time exploring with my dogs. I take
them hiking, visiting historical sites, or even just walking around town. A
surprising number of people are drawn to dogs, and I always enjoy
talking with who I meet. I feel that communication is one of the most
important aspects of my professional life as well. When talking with
people, being able to guide the conversation in a particular direction is
one of the ways I’ve been successful in different situations at the office.
Be specific about what makes you a good fit for this role, and mention aspects
of the company and position that appeal to you most.
sample
I want this job because it emphasizes sales and marketing, two of my
greatest skill sets. In my previous job, I increased sales by 15% in what
was at the time considered a flat industry. I know I could bring my 10
years of sales and marketing experience to this company, and help you
continue your years of growth.
When asked about why you are moving on from your current position, stick with
the facts, be direct, and focus your answer on the future, especially if your
departure wasn't under the best circumstances.
sample
To be honest, I wasn't considering a change, but
a former colleague recommended this job to me.
I looked into the position and was intrigued by
the role and by the company. What you're
offering sounds like an exciting opportunity and
an ideal match for my qualifications.
When you're answering this question, remember to “show” rather than “tell.”
For example, rather than stating that you are an excellent problem solver,
instead tell a story that demonstrates this, ideally drawing on an anecdote
from your professional experience.
sample
I have a solid work ethic. When I'm working on a project, I don't just want
to meet deadlines. Rather, I prefer to complete the project well ahead of
schedule. Last year, I even earned a bonus for completing my three
most recent reports one week ahead of time.
This question is an opportunity to show the hiring manager that you're well
qualified for the job. In addition to learning whether you've got the right
credentials, the hiring manager wants to know whether you can take on
challenges and learn new tasks.
sample
Numbers have not always been my strong suit. Fortunately, as a
copywriter, I can focus most of my time on the creative process of
writing. However, in recent years I have begun to familiarize myself
with the digital analytics tools used in the various websites and
apps I write for, and I have found that when you add context,
“numbers” can actually be quite enlightening.
