All interview questions are really the same question: Why Should We Hire You 1. Tell me about yourself. This is an open-ended question often asked to help "break the ice" in the interview. The important thing to remember is to keep the answer job-related. 2. Why are you interested in working for this company? This will show the employer that you have done your "homework." State the positive things you have learned about the company and how they fit with your career goals. This shows the employer that you cared enough about the interview to prepare for it. 3. Tell me about your education. Even though your resume includes this information, some employers like to have you expound on the subject. Remember to include all classes, seminars, workshops, and on-the-job training you have attended that support your job goals. 4. Why have you chosen this particular field? This is one way to discover your enthusiasm and dedication to your career. 5. Describe your best/worst boss. This could be a trap. Do not present a negative picture of any past employers. If given a choice, always talk about your best boss. If pressed to describe the worst boss, pick a work-related characteristic that can be stated in a positive way, e.g., "I had a supervisor who was vague when issuing assignments. I learned to ask questions so that I knew what was expected." 6. In a job, what interests you most/least? This will give the employer another gauge for measuring how well you will fit the job opening. 7. What is your major weakness? Always turn this into a positive! State a weakness and turn it into a positive by showing how you overcame the weakness. "In the past, it has been difficult for me to accept criticism from my peers. However, I have learned to value and solicit this input and it has improved my job performance." 8. Give an example of how you solved a problem in the past. It is important to be able to show the process you go through when presented with a problem. State the problem and the steps you followed to reach the solution. 9. What are your strengths? This is the time to describe the skills you have identified that will most effectively "market" you as an employee. 10. How do others describe you? Another way for the employer to ask this would be, "Tell me how you would fit into this work group?" If you are not comfortable with this question before the interview, call some friends and/or ask people you have worked with how they would describe you. 11. What do you consider the most important idea you contributed or your most noteworthy accomplishment in your last job? Give examples of ways in which you saved the company time or money or developed an office procedure that improved efficiency. 12. Where do you see yourself in three years? Telling the interviewer, "In your job!" is not a good idea. Do indicate that you hope to acquire sufficient skills and knowledge within that time to make a positive contribution to the company. 13. Think about something you consider a failure in your life, and tell me why you think it happened. Failure implies error. Answers that point to a negative should conclude with a success. For example, "In my last job, I was given an assignment to coordinate all travel plans for an international conference. About half-way through the process, I realized I had not gathered enough information to help attendees make good travel and lodging decisions. I had to take time out to do the research which put me under a severe time crunch. I learned to do my research sooner. I haven't had the problem since." 14. How do you think you will fit into this operation? This is the time to express your interest in the job and knowledge of the company. The more you know about the operation the easier this question will be to answer. 15. If you were hired, what ideas/talents could you contribute to the position or our company? Another great opportunity for you to sell your skills. By giving examples of past accomplishments, the employer can visualize your contribution to her/his company. 16. Give an example where you showed leadership and initiative. Even if you haven't had the title of lead worker, supervisor, or manager, give examples of when you recognized a job needed to be done and you did it. 17. Given an example of when you were able to contribute to a team project. Unless you have lived in a total void you have been part of a team. Team work is used in sales because both parties have to state their needs and expectations, then negotiate the sale. Families, community activities, and school all require team work. 18. What have you done to develop or change in the last few years? This shows a willingness to be challenged and to improve. Employers are looking for people who are willing to continue learning. Talk about formal and informal educational opportunities you have pursued. Mention books and periodicals you have read related to your field of interest. 19. Do you have any questions for me? By asking questions, you again show interest in the job. Following are some suggested questions.

This is a question that is asked in job interviews. In order to answer it, think of something that makes you stand out from others. Things like "I work hard" or "I'm always on time and do excellent work" just won't do. It has to be something unique about you that makes you the best candidate for the job.

The best way to answer this question is to be honest. You want to make sure you include steps you have started taking to prevent missing future deadlines.

You may be asked many difficult question during an interview. here are some difficult question that you can expect from an interviewer.

"Why have you applied for this position and what can you offer Ladbrokes?" are two popular questions that job candidates may be asked at an interview with Ladbrokes. A prospective employer would ask these so that he can easier judge if you are the right person for the job.

A person will need to state what they plan to do within their career as well as how they plan to achieve those career goals. They should also be sure to not state to many career goals that would be outside of the company they are applying to so they will not cause the employer to think they will leave after a short time.

Many people learn everything they need from the interview and have no further questions. If you have anything extra you would like to know about the company, the job, the working conditions, or the salary, then this is the time for you to ask them. You should try not to ask a question that has already been answered, however, as that makes them think you have not paid any attention. If you cannot think of a question, simply smile and say "No," then thank them for the interview. I agree with the previous post and would like to add a recommendation... write a list of questions ahead of time that you'd like answered about the job, and if they aren't answered during the interview, you should definitely ask them with ease. Inquiring about when a decision to fill the position will be made is an example.

Being a teamplayer I feel that is the greatest asset in itself! Going that extra mile to help someone else maybe a co-worker customer etc..those are my strengths and ambition! I just feel it's very important to work as a team in any working environment! Being a true team player is a plus.

well dont tell the person whos interviewing you stuff about things you like or personal stuff. tell them where you went to school, if you've ever had a job before, what your good at, sports or activities you were involved in, and your strong points but keep it simple dont go into detail and dont lie.
