The question "What if" does not always start with "What" but instead could simply begin, "If...."

"What if" and "If" questions require an interviewee to think on his feet.

The interviewee must sometimes use memories of personal experience to answer "what if" questions. Other times, it's not so much about what has happened in the past, but how an interviewee thinks in the present. The interviewee must show common sense, clarity, and some creativity can always help.

Let's use an example:

If you saw another employee stealing money from the cashier's till, and the other employee knew you saw her, what would you do?

The employer is looking for an honest answer, not just what you think the employer wants to hear. So how would you answer the question? Would you fear being viewed as a snitch? Would you report the incident, even if the thief was your friend? Further, what is a creative way to answer the question?

It may seem hard-- but it's not impossible if you answer honestly, from the gut and head, and state how you would handle the problem.
