Interview Questions and Answers
Here are some very popular interview questions and some
possible ways to answer them. Please remember that there
cannot be just one answer to them. Your answers depend a lot
on your particular circumstances. For instance, if the
interviewer asks you to describe a challenging issue you had
to face, your answer would depend on your particular
background and experience. Therefore we have attempted to
give you strategies to answer such questions, rather than
specific answers.

Common Interview Questions and Their Answers.
The first step for successful interviews is to remember how
you feel. Yes, it is your nth interview and yet you are as
nervous as if it were your first time. Remember, there is
nothing wrong with this. Everyone, well almost everyone,
feels nervous on interviews. Simply allow this state to be-
do not fight it. You will have far more presence of mind if
you don’t fight your nervousness. Also try to remember that
it is difficult for the interviewer too.
-
What would you rate as your greatest weaknesses?
This is a tricky question. Be mindful of what you say. If
you admit to a genuine weakness, you will be respected for
your honesty, but your
resume will end up in the dustbin after
the interview!
-
Don’t you think you are overqualified for this job?
Here the interviewer may be worried that you will leave the
job once you find something that matches your qualification
level. This may sound like an
objection, but it doesn’t mean that the employer has no
interest in you. The employer is trying to gauge how you see
the situation- whether you can see advantages to both sides.
You obviously have to also show how you stand benefited-
otherwise it will appear that this job is only a stop-gap
arrangement for you till you find something better.
-
How would you honestly evaluate the strengths and weaknesses
of your previous/current company/boss/team?
This question is nothing but a trap. The interviewer is the
least interested in the company/boss/team. They are simply
checking how you deal with a situation like this. You might
be really tempted to unburden your soul- but don’t. Do not
stonewall from the question, but emphasize the good points.
-
Situation: Your competitor presses you to reveal some
confidential information about your current or previous
employer.
This looks like a no-win situation- traps both ways. You
tell them all, and they judge you as untrustworthy. You
refuse to reveal the information they are seeking, the
interviewer might be displeased with you. They might think
that you are stubborn or suspicious.
-
I think you should be earning more money at this point of
your career. Why isn’t it happening?
Beware of giving a defensive answer that suggests that money
is not very important to you- the company might use it as a
trap while negotiating your salary. However your answer
should explain why you are earning something below the
industry standards.
-
If you came on board with us, what changes would you make in
the system?
This seemingly innocent question has many landmines hidden
in it. You might be very close to being hired, but a wrong
approach this one question can sabotage everything. You may
be very bright, but no one can really understand what needs
to be done unless they settle in the position and understand
the strengths and weaknesses from within. So beware of
jumping at this question if you don’t want to come across as
someone who shoots from the hips.
-
I find that you have changed jobs many times so far. Why is
it so?
The concerns behind this question are quite obvious. The
interviewer is worried that you may leave the job too soon,
the way you have done with others. This might also indicate
that you are a well qualified but problematic person who
can’t get along with other people.
-
You have been working with this current firm for a long
time. Don’t you think it would be difficult now to switch
over to a new company?
The interviewer is worried that you would find it difficult
to adapt to new ways of working. The best way to tackle this
is to show how you have had many changing scenarios within
your current firm and how you have adapted to them and grown
with them. You can demonstrate the different
responsibilities you have held and the changing situations
you have conquered. This way you have learnt to adapt
quickly to whatever comes your way and even thrive on the
challenge.
-
How many hours a day/a week do you work?
Avoid being too specific on this answer. If you give a low
figure, the company will view it as inadequate. If you
commit to too many hours, you will feel guilty for not being
able to keep up.
-
We would like to hear about your goals.
It reflects poorly on you not to have any goals or have only
generalities. Remember that those people who are in a
position to
hire you have reached there most probably
because of their goal setting habits. They would want to
hire people who are like them. Thus being non specific about
your
career/ personal goals could act as a big
turn off.
-
56. Situation: You belong to a category (physically
challenged, a single parent, above 50 and so on) that might
be considered not competent enough for the position. The
interviewer does not articulate his/her concern, but doubts
lurk in his/her mind.
This is more damaging than a concern vocally expressed.
Because it is never expressed, you do not have a chance to
respond. How do you defend your position in this case?
-
When you look back on the position you held last, do you
think you have done your best in it?
If you say that you did, it could mean that your best is
already behind you. If you say ‘no’, the interviewer takes
it to mean that you don’t give your all to the work at hand.
You should therefore indicate that you always put in your
best efforts. Also show that this time of
your
career (it includes both your previous
work and the current moment) is your peak phase for several
reasons. Support your statement with instances and reasons
from recent developments in your career.
