Job #interviews can be very stressful and exhausting. There are a lot of things that we need to keep in mind while preparing for an interview, but the most important part of preparing for an interview is practice.
Knowing what the interviewer is going to ask is essential. You should know how to craft an answer and feel confident while answering them. You must wonder which question the #recruiter is going to ask you and how you should respond to that question. Then the answer is extremely simple.
Here are the solutions to the most common questions that are asked in an interview:
1. Introduce yourself
The #first question asked by the interviewer is about #yourself. It is the most common question, but also the most crucial one.
The answer to this question should be interesting. Your answer should compel the interviewer to #think that you are the #right fit for the job. You can add certain points in the introduction like about your current role, your qualities, and something that makes you unique from others, apart from what is already mentioned in your #CV.
2. Why do you want to work for this company?
This is a very #tricky question that is asked to most of the candidates. Your answer to this question can make a tremendous difference in your impression in the eyes of the recruiter. The response must be #smart enough to stand out from the other candidates. Do #research about the company and point at something that makes you #unique and better than others. Try to find the good points about the company like #growth perspectives, #financial worthiness, #personal and #professional #development.
3. Why do you want this job?
If this question is asked to you, then consider yourself #lucky, because this question gives you an excellent #opportunity to pitch yourself or your skills to the interviewer. You need to make the hiring manager believe you can not only do the work but also deliver impressive results and you will be the perfect fit for the team and the culture.
4. What are your weaknesses?
It is one of the most popular questions asked by the hiring manager. It is also a very alarming question. But the answer can be simple. You just need to minimize your #weaknesses and focus on your #strengths. You need to make them believe you are working on your weaknesses and will overcome them. Try to focus on professional traits rather than personal ones.
5. What are your goals?
The answer to this question reflects who you are and what do you want to become in the near future. So, try to talk about your short-term or #intermediate #goals that will reflect your plans, rather than talking about the distant, unforeseen future. You need to make him believe you can improve yourself and will be a better or more skilled person if given the right opportunity.
6. Tell me about your strengths?
This is the #easiest question to prepare because we all should know what we are #best at. It is an excellent opportunity to show your self-awareness and #desire for personal development to the interviewer. Positively frame your answer with no unprofessional means. Your strengths must reflect the relativity with the job you are applying for.
7. What are your salary expectations?
Research your profession's #salary according to industry #standards. Try to avoid giving a straight answer, as you are hungry for the job, not for the money. Frame the answer in a way that you do not sound #demanding, but appear to be #deserving.
8. Why should we hire you?
In this question, you need to briefly describe your working experience and the #achievements and #lessons you have gained in the past 5 or 6 years. You need to make sure that you will be a wonderful #asset to the company/ team and you will make a big positive difference. Be #confident while answering the questions.
9. Why are you leaving your current job? It is critical to frame the answer to this question positively. But #badmouthing about the job will make a poor impression on the interviewer, so never say negative things about the #current or last #employer. Try to frame reason in a positive way like you wanted a new challenge or wanted to get out of your comfort zone, etc.
10. Where do you see yourself in the next five years? This is one of the best questions that is asked during the job interview as it gives you a chance to tell the interviewer about your plans; what do you want to #achieve, what do you want to #learn etc. You need to show him how driven and goal-oriented you are. Your expectations should be #realistic.
These are the most commonly asked questions during the job interview. But there is a need to #research about the company and job to provide the best answer to their questions. Try to impress them with your #pronunciation and your English as it also makes a vast difference to the interviewer. Be #positive while answering the questions, as #confidence is the key element. Be optimistic and try to give your best!
