Interview Questions Use Good Planning to Anticipate the Questions in Advance. Give it some Thought!

TYPES OF QUESTIONS 1. GENERAL – job and school related a. Why do you want to work for us? b. What are your strengths and/or weaknesses? c. What would like to be doing five years from now? 2. EDUCATIONAL/TRAINING a. What is your grade point average? b. What have been your favorite and least favorite courses? c. Were your extracurricular activities worth the time you put into them?

MORE QUESTIONS 3. JOB-RELATED a. Why should I hire you? b. How long a commitment do you plan to give me? 4. PERSONAL a. Tell me something about yourself. b. What accomplishment in your life has made you the proudest? c. What is the last book you read?

HOW TO MAKE POSITIVE POINTS PREPARE FOR THE PUFF BALL: seems easy, but how do you answer, “Tell me about yourself.” It’s a springboard to tell the interviewer something that you had planned on saying that’s great! USE THE PAUSE: “down time” (ex. After the interruption of a phone call) – take the inititiative to jump in & say something wonderful about yourself. ADD TO THE “BRIDGE”: a transition from one answer to another. Turn the original ques. towards something else you wished to talk about. a. The sparkler: makes things come alive (story, quote, analogy, anecdote) b. The sound-bite: the “commercial” about you (30 to 90 seconds) - responsible, great social skills, creative, etc.

ETHICAL ISSUES: Inappropriate Questions Types: marriage, children, ancestry, nationality, & religion 2. Sometimes, they don’t know that it’s a no-no. 3. Sometimes, they do it to see how you’ll react. 4. The KEY: “Does it have something to do with my current job or one that I’m applying for?” a. Health related is OK. b. “Ability to do the job” as described 5. What to do if it happen? a. Ignore it. b. Ask about the relevance to the job. c. Answer it and move on. d. Unless it’s really offense, don’t bother to report.

YOUR QUESTIONS – Yes, you should ask some. Ask questions that show you’re interested. Questions about working hours, training, and reviews are great. 3. Ask questions that refer to responsibilities and over-time. 4. Please, before you’ve even got the job, don’t ask about raises, vacations, bonuses, holidays, sick leave, and discounts. Some of these sound like you’re trying to get out of work before you start.
