Tell me about a situation when your work was criticized (difficult).

Why ask this question:

The interviewer isn’t asking you whether you can cope with stressful situations at work, but how you meet them. This is a tough question because it’s a more clever and subtle way to get you to admit to a weakness. You can’t dodge it by pretending you’ve never been criticized. Everybody has been. Yet it can be quite damaging to start admitting potential faults and failures that you’d just as soon leave buried.

This question is also intended to probe how well you accept criticism and direction.

Most Effective Answer:

Try to think of a failure that took place relatively early in your career and/or one that would seem completely unrelated to the work you would be performing for your new employer. Begin by emphasizing the extremely positive feedback you’ve gotten throughout your career and (if it’s true) that your performance reviews have been uniformly excellent.

No one is perfect and you always welcome suggestions on how to improve your performance. Then, give an example of a not-too-damaging learning experience from early in your career and relate the ways this lesson has since helped you. This demonstrates that you learned from the experience and the lesson is now one of the strongest breastplates in your suit of armor.

Radiates experience and self-confidence in all communication situations.

If you are pressed for a criticism from a recent position, choose something fairly trivial that in no way is essential to your successful performance. Add that you’ve learned from this, too, and over the past several years/months, it’s no longer an area of concern because you now make it a regular practice to…etc.

Another way to answer this question would be to describe your intention to broaden your master of an area of growing importance in your field. For example, this might be a computer program you’ve been meaning to sit down and learn… a new management technique you’ve read about…or perhaps attending a seminar on some cutting-edge branch of your profession.

Again, the key is to focus on something not essential to your brilliant performance but which adds yet another dimension to your already impressive knowledge base.

Remember:

Don’t ever admit to any personal quality that might hamper job performance, such as procrastination, laziness, or lack of concentration.

This question can be ask as under also.

How do you cope with job stress?
Have you ever had a conflict with a superior? How was it resolved?
Give us a recent example of when you came up with a different approach/solution to a situation or problem.
Describe a situation when you found it difficult to focus the work of a team on an objective.
Tell me about the most competitive situation you have experienced and how you handled it.
Describe a situation when you had to tell someone bad news.

What good books have you read lately?

Why ask this question:
As in all matters of your interview, never fake familiarity you don’t have.

Most Effective Answer:
Unless you’re up for a position in academia or as book critic for The Times of USA, you’re not expected to be a literary lion. But it wouldn’t hurt to have read a handful of the most recent and influential books in your profession and on management.

Consider it part of the work of your job search to read up on a few of these leading books. But make sure they are quality books that reflect favorably upon you, nothing that could even remotely be considered superficial. Finally, add a recently published bestselling work of fiction by a world-class author and you’ll pass this question with flying colors.

Why do you want to work at here?

Why ask this question:
This question tests whether you’ve done any homework about the firm. If you haven’t, you lose. If you have, you win big.

Most Effective Answer:
This question is your opportunity to hit the ball out of the park, thanks to the in-depth research you should do before any interview.

Best sources for researching your target company: annual reports, the corporate newsletter, contacts you know at the company or its suppliers, advertisements, articles about the company in the trade press.

What are your career options right now?

Why ask this question:
The interviewer is trying to find out, “How hopeless are you?”

Most Effective Answer:
Prepare for this question by thinking of how you can position yourself as a desired commodity. If you are still working, describe the possibilities at your present firm and why, though you’re greatly appreciated there, you’re looking for something more (challenge, money, responsibility, etc.). Also mention that you’re seriously exploring opportunities with one or two other firms.

If you’re not working, you can talk about other employment possibilities you’re actually exploring. But do this with a light touch, speaking only in general terms. You don’t want to seem manipulative or coy.

Explain your ideal industry, location and job

Why ask this question:
This is often asked by an experienced interviewer who thinks you may be overqualified, but knows better than to show his hand by posing his objection directly. So he’ll use this question instead, which often gets a candidate to reveal that, indeed, he or she is looking for something other than the position at hand.

Most Effective Answer:
The only right answer is to describe what this company is offering, being sure to make your answer believable with specific reasons, stated with sincerity, why each quality represented by this opportunity is attractive to you.

Remember that if you’re coming from a company that’s the leader in its field or from a glamorous or much admired company, industry, city or position, your interviewer and his company may well have an “Avis” complex. That is, they may feel a bit defensive about being “second best” to the place you’re coming from, worried that you may consider them bush league.

This anxiety could well be there even though you’ve done nothing to inspire it. You must go out of your way to assuage such anxiety, even if it’s not expressed, by putting their virtues high on the list of exactly what you’re looking for, providing credible reason for wanting these qualities.

If you do not express genuine passion for the firm, its culture, location, industry, etc., you may fail to answer this “Avis” complex objection and, as a result, leave the interviewer suspecting that a hot shot like you, coming from a Fortune 500 company in New York, just wouldn’t be happy at an unknown manufacturer based in Topeka, Kansas.

Having too many skills (overqualified) compared to those required for a job.

Why ask this question: The employer may be concerned that you’ll grow dissatisfied and leave.

Most Effective Answer: As with any objection, don’t view this as a sign of imminent defeat. It’s an invitation to teach the interviewer a new way to think about this situation, seeing advantages instead of drawbacks.

Example: “I recognize the job market for what it is – a marketplace. Like any marketplace, it’s subject to the laws of supply and demand. So ‘overqualified’ can be a relative term, depending on how tight the job market is. And right now, it’s very tight. I understand and accept that.”

“I also believe that there could be very positive benefits for both of us in this match.”

“Because of my unusually strong experience in …………….. could start to contribute right away, perhaps much faster than someone who’d have to be brought along more slowly.”

“There’s also the value of all the training and years of experience that other companies have invested tens of thousands of dollars to give me. You’d be getting all the value of that without having to pay an extra dime for it. With someone who has yet to acquire that experience, he’d have to gain it on your nickel.”

“I could also help you in many things they don’t teach at the Harvard Business School. For example…(how to hire, train, motivate, etc.) When it comes to knowing how to work well with people and getting the most out of them, there’s just no substitute for what you learn over many years of front-line experience. You company would gain all this, too.”

“From my side, there are strong benefits, as well. Right now, I am unemployed. I want to work, very much, and the position you have here is exactly what I love to do and am best at. I’ll be happy doing this work and that’s what matters most to me, a lot more that money or title.”

“Most important, I’m looking to make a long term commitment in my career now. I’ve had enough of job-hunting and want a permanent spot at this point in my career. I also know that if I perform this job with excellence, other opportunities cannot help but open up for me right here. In time, I’ll find many other ways to help this company and in so doing, help myself. I really am looking to make a long-term commitment.”

Remember: The main concern behind the “overqualified” question is that you will leave your new employer as soon as something better comes your way. Anything you can say to demonstrate the sincerity of your commitment to the employer and reassure him that you’re looking to stay for the long-term will help you overcome this objection.

Where do you see yourself 3 years from now? Or tell us about your ambition.

Why ask this question:
One reason interviewers ask this question is to see if you’re settling for this position, using it merely as a stopover until something better comes along. Or they could be trying to gauge your level of ambition.

If you’re too specific, i.e., naming the promotions you someday hope to win, you’ll sound presumptuous. If you’re too vague, you’ll see rudderless.

Most Effective Answer:
Reassure your interviewer that you’re looking to make a long-term commitment…that this position entails exactly what you’re looking to do and what you do extremely well. As for your future, you believe that if you perform each job at hand with excellence, future opportunities will take care of themselves.

Example: “I am definitely interested in making a long-term commitment to my next position. Judging by what you’ve told me about this position, it’s exactly what I’m looking for and what I am very well qualified to do. In terms of my future career path, I’m confident that if I do my work with excellence, opportunities will inevitable open up for me. It’s always been that way in my career, and I’m confident I’ll have similar opportunities here.”

Why are you leaving or did you leave this industry or position?

Why ask this question:
Never badmouth your previous industry, company, board, boss, staff, employees or customers. This rule is inviolable: never be negative. Any mud you hurl will only soil your suit.

Especially avoid words like “personality clash”, “didn’t get along”, or others which cast a shadow on your aptitude, honesty, or nature.

Most Effective Answers:

If you have a job presently: If you’re not yet 100% committed to leaving your present post, don’t be afraid to say so. Since you have a job, you are in a stronger position than someone who does not. But don’t be coy either. State honestly what you’d be hoping to find in a new spot. Of course, as stated often before, you answer will all the stronger if you have already uncovered what this position is all about and you match your desires to it.

If you do not have a job presently: Never lie about having been fired. It’s unethical – and too easily checked. But do try to deflect the reason from you personally. If your firing was the result of a takeover, merger, division wide layoff, etc., so much the better.

But you should also do something totally unnatural that will demonstrate consummate professionalism. Even if it hurts, describe your own firing – candidly, succinctly and without a trace of bitterness – from the company’s point-of-view, indicating that you could understand why it happened and you might have made the same decision yourself.

Your stature will rise immensely and, most important of all, you will show you are healed from the wounds inflicted by the firing. You will enhance your image as first-class management material and stand head and shoulders above the legions of firing victims who, at the slightest provocation, zip open their shirts to expose their battle scars and decry the unfairness of it all.

For all prior positions: Make sure you’ve prepared a brief reason for leaving. Best reasons: more money, opportunity, duty or growth.

Tell me about something you did or failed to do that you now feel a little guilty.

Be sure that you refer to something that was beyond your control. Show acceptance and no negative feelings.

Why ask this question:
There are some questions your interviewer has no business asking, and this is one. But while you may feel like answering, “none of your business,” naturally you can’t. Some interviewers ask this question on the chance you admit to something, but if not, at least they’ll see how you think on your feet.

Some unprepared candidates, flustered by this question, unburden themselves of guilt from their personal life or career, perhaps expressing regrets regarding a parent, spouse, child, etc. All such answers can be disastrous.

Most Effective Answer:
As with faults and weaknesses, never confess regret. But don’t seem as if you’re stonewalling either.

Most Effective strategy: Say you harbor no regrets, then add a principle or habit you practice regularly for healthy human relations.

Example: Pause for reflection, as if the question never occurred to you. Then say, “You know, I really can’t think of anything.” (Pause again, then add): “I would add that as a general management principle, I’ve found that the best way to avoid regrets is to avoid causing them in the first place. I practice one habit that helps me a great deal in this regard. At the end of each day, I mentally review the day’s events and conversations to take a second look at the people and developments I’m involved with and do a double check of what they’re likely to be feeling. Sometimes I’ll see things that do need more follow-up, whether a pat on the back, or maybe a five minute chat in someone’s office to make sure we’re clear on things, whatever.”

“I also like to make each person feel like a member of an elite team, like the Boston Celtics or LA Lakers in their prime. I’ve found that if you let each team member know you expect excellence in their performance, if you work hard to set an example yourself, and if you let people know you appreciate and respect their feelings, you wind up with a highly motivated group, a team that’s having fun at work because they’re striving for excellence rather than brooding over slights or regrets.”

Remember:
Honesty is a good trait, but too much honesty can be your downfall when answering this question! If you believe that you have been guilty of a major failure – even if it was only through bad luck or circumstance – try to play it down.

This question can be asked as under also:

What has been your biggest professional disappointment?
What is your greatest failure?

Also called Unspoken behavior.

Why ask this question:
It’s normally used by those determined to see how you respond under stress.Mind it – if you are unprepared for this question, you will probably not handle it right and possibly blow the interview.

How it works:

You answer an interviewer’s question and then, instead of asking another, he just stares at you in a deafening silence.

You wait, growing a bit uneasy, and there he sits, silent as Mt. Rushmore, as if he doesn’t believe what you’ve just said, or perhaps making you feel that you’ve unwittingly violated some cardinal rule of interview etiquette.

When you get this silent treatment after answering a particularly difficult question, such as “tell me about your weaknesses”, its intimidating effect can be most disquieting, even to polished job hunters.

Most unprepared candidates rush in to fill the void of silence, viewing prolonged, uncomfortable silences as an invitation to clear up the previous answer which has obviously caused some problem. And that’s what they do – ramble on, sputtering more and more information, sometimes irrelevant and often damaging, because they are suddenly playing the role of someone who’s goofed and is now trying to recoup. But since the candidate doesn’t know where or how he goofed, he just keeps talking, showing how flustered and confused he is by the interviewer’s unmovable silence.

Most Effective Answers:
Like a primitive tribal mask, the Silent Treatment loses all it power to frighten you once you refuse to be intimidated. If your interviewer pulls it, keep quiet yourself for a while and then ask, with sincere politeness and not a trace of sarcasm, “Is there anything else I can fill in on that point?” That’s all there is to it.

Whatever you do, don’t let the Silent Treatment intimidate you into talking a blue streak, because you could easily talk yourself out of the position.

Continue to… Interview Question 6 - Tell me about somethingyoudid or failed to do that you now feela little guilty.

Why should we appoint (hire) you?

Why ask this question:
This is a killer question because so many candidates are unprepared for it. If you stammer or adlib you have blown it. This question is often used to bring an interview to a close, so treat it as your opportunity to sell yourself boldly to the interviewers. An interviewer using one of these variations is clearly attempting to make you fully aware that you’re on the hot seat

Most Effective Answer:
Answering this question successfully only requires you to summaries the most important skills and qualities that you have and the employer is looking for. By now you can see how critical it is to apply the overall strategy of uncovering the employer’s needs before you answer questions. If you know the employer’s greatest needs and desires, this question will give you a big leg up over other candidates because you will give him better reasons for hiring you than anyone else is likely to reasons tied directly to his needs.

Point out how your assets meet what the organization needs. Do not mention any other candidates to make a comparison.

Whether your interviewer asks you this question explicitly or not, this is the most important question of your interview because he must answer this question favorably in is own mind before you will be hired. So help him out! Walk through each of the position’s requirements as you understand them, and follow each with a reason why you meet that requirement so well.

Example: “As I understand your needs, you are first and foremost looking for someone who can manage the sales and marketing of your book publishing division. As you’ve said you need someone with a strong background in trade book sales. This is where I’ve spent almost all of my career, so I’ve chalked up 18 years of experience exactly in this area. I believe that I know the right contacts, methods, principles, and successful management techniques as well as any person can in our industry.”

“You also need someone who can expand your book distribution channels. In my prior post, my innovative promotional ideas doubled, then tripled, the number of outlets selling our books. I’m confident I can do the same for you.”

“You need someone to give a new shot in the arm to your mail order sales, someone who knows how to sell in space and direct mail media. Here, too, I believe I have exactly the experience you need. In the last five years, I’ve increased our mail order book sales from $600,000 to $2,800,000, and now we’re the country’s second leading marketer of scientific and medical books by mail.” etc.,

Every one of these selling “couplets” (his need matched by your qualifications) is a touchdown that runs up your score. This is your best opportunity to outsell your competition.

This question can be ask as under also

Why should I consider you a strong candidate for this position?

What’s better about you than the other candidates I’m interviewing?

What can you do for us that someone else can’t?

Draw a picture of the corporate culture you’ll create if we hire you.

What can you do for us if we hire you ?

Continue to… Interview Question 5 - Unspoken behavior in interview

What are your greatest weaknesses?

Why ask this question:
Referring a weakness that is so basic or stupid that the interviewer has to wonder if that’s the biggest thing (she did say one thing) you could change. Beware - this is an eliminator question, designed to shorten the candidate list. Any admission of a weakness or fault will earn you an “A” for honesty, but an “F” for the interview.

Potential Answer: Cover up strength as a weakness.

Example: “I sometimes push my people too hard. I like to work with a sense of urgency and everyone is not always on the same wavelength.”

Drawback: This strategy is better than admitting a flaw, but it's so widely used, it is see-through to any experienced interviewer.

Most Effective Answer:
Assure the interviewer that you can think of nothing that would stand in the way of your performing in this position with excellence. Then, quickly review you strongest qualifications.

Example: “Nobody's perfect, but based on what you've told me about this position, I believe I' d make an outstanding match. I know that when I hire people, I look for two things most of all. Do they have the qualifications to do the job well, and the motivation to do it well? Everything in my background shows I have both the qualifications and a strong desire to achieve excellence in whatever I take on. So I can say in all honesty that I see nothing that would cause you even a small concern about my ability or my strong desire to perform this job with excellence.”

Alternate strategy: Instead of confessing a weakness, describe what you like most and like least, making sure that what you like most matches up with the most important qualification for success in the position, and what you like least is not essential.

Example: “My e-mail communications were known to be unintentionally short and curt. Co-workers were used to my terse writing style; however, customers were not. One time, a client e-mailed me, inquiring about a new product of the company. In my reply, I pointed him to the Web site where the features and benefits of the product were described. The client took my reply as a lack of interest in him continued business. Because of this I was able to salvage the relationship, after that incident I enrolled in an e-mail communications course to ensure that my correspondences accurately reflected my intentions. as result this is a problem I am still working to correct. When I find that my e-mail messages are coming across negatively, I pick up the phone and explain”.

Example: “If given a choice, I like to spend as much time as possible in front of my prospects selling, as opposed to shuffling paperwork back at the office. Of course, I long ago learned the importance of filing paperwork properly, and I do it conscientiously. But what I really love to do is sell (if your interviewer were a sales manager, this should be music to his ears.)”

Remember: When talking about any faults, weaknesses, or areas for improvement, it’s critical that you talk about the steps or actions that you take to limit or compensate for them,

This question can be ask as under also

Tell me about a time you worked on a project when your role was not clearly defined.
All of us have personality defects – what is yours?
Give an example of a situation in which your greatest weakness negatively impacted a customer relationship or on misunderstanding.
Provide an example of your existing (previous) company’s weakness and the steps you took to overcome it.
Recall a time when you were given a set of instructions that you were unable to follow.
What do you consider to be your weaknesses?
Which technical problems are the most challenging for you?
Describe a recent occasion when you felt that your level of specialist knowledge was insufficient.
What did you find the most difficult about your Job?

Continue to… Interview Question 4 - why should we appoint (hire) you?

What are your best strength?

Why ask this question:
Every job candidate is ready for this one because it gets so much attention in the career press. Job candidates are also aware that this query is used as a lead-in to a natural follow-up question (which is much tougher to answer): ‘‘What’s your greatest weakness?’’

Still, This question seems like a softball lob, but be prepared. You don't want to come across as egotistical or arrogant. Neither is this a time to be humble.

Most Effective Answer:
You know that your key strategy is to first uncover your interviewer's greatest wants and needs before you answer questions. And from Question 1 (Tell us about yourself?), you know how to do this.

Prior to any interview, you should have a list mentally prepared of your greatest strengths. You should also have, a specific example or two, which illustrates each strength, an example chosen from your most recent and most impressive achievements.

The better you know yourself, the better you can sell yourself to a prospective employer when you’re on the spot in an interview.

You can prepare a list of your best features under the following headings:

My greatest areas of knowledge.
My greatest personality strengths.
The things I do best.
My strongest skills.
My key accomplishments.

You should, have this list of your greatest strengths and corresponding examples from your achievements so well committed to memory that you can recite them cold after being surprised awake at 3:00AM.

Then, once you uncover your interviewer's greatest wants and needs, you can choose those achievements from your list that most effective match up.

As a general guideline, the 10 most desirable traits that all employers love to see in their employees are:

Confident-healthy-a leader.
Honesty-integrity-a decent human being.
Good fit with corporate culture-someone to feel comfortable with-a team player who meshes well with interviewer's team.
Likeability-positive attitude-sense of humor.
Good communication skills.
Loyalty-enthusiasm to walk the extra mile to achieve excellence.
Definiteness of purpose-clear goals.
Enthusiasm-high level of motivation.
A proven track record as an achiever-especially if your achievements match up with the employer's greatest wants and needs.
Intelligence-management "know-how".

Example: "As an area manager with xyz industry, I have excellent organisation skills and really good attention to detail – I am not the sort of person who does things by one-half. I also believe that I have good communication skills in dealing with not only external customers but also all members of the internal team –from the senior managers to the junior researchers".
