Applying at a cell phone store tomorrow

"Describe a time you had to work with someone you didn't like."
"Tell me about a time when you had to stick by a decision you had made, even though it made you very unpopular."
"How would you handle a boss you suspected of performing unethical actions?"
"Would you describe yourself as an innovative person? Give us an example of something particularly innovative that you have done that made a difference in the workplace."
"What was the last time you were late with a project?"

What are the best answers for those kinds of questions?

What other job interview questions may be asked and what are good answers for them?

I have absolutely no idea why I was terminated. Everything was going well. I had just finished up two large projects, both on tight schedules, and everyone was pleased with my work. I got along well with all my colleagues, and never had any complaints from clients. I was completely blindsided by the termination.

I was with this employer for 6 months as a temp, then 1 year as a permanent employee. When it was time for my performance evaluation, all the comments were good, but all the scores were marked as low. My boss offered to give me a good reference. It just doesn't add up.

So now I need to look for work, but how do I explain why I left my previous employment when I, myself, have no idea?

I have a publication by the Wall Street Journal about investing. It has a section on money market funds and says "...for every one dollar you put in (into the fund) you will get one dollar back". How can this be? If you put one dollar in and get one dollar back..is'nt this doubling your money? I need an explanation on this. Thanks

Hi,

Here is the question,

I really thank you, can you please explain me a litte bit;

I have found a new kind of hot drink.

Last week I have send an email to a Food and Beverage Company about the project.

And they have said that their R&D Department will call me.

Today or tomorrow they may call me but I really do not know how will I offer my project.

I mean about the money...

I have 3 options in my mind.

1. 25.000cash and %2 of the profit a year.
2. 50.000cash.
3. %5 of the profit and no cash.

What can you offer me?

Please, I am waiting for the answer,

Thank you very much

I wanted to do a backround check on myself just for sh*#s & giggles and stupidly ordered the cheapest site available. It promised access to all public records and a money back guarentee. What the site offered was just a database for a lot of other backgound check sites that you have to pay a lot of money for and absolutely no link to getting my '100% guarenteed money back if not satisfied.' It only cost me 30 bucks, but I don't want to give the jerk(s) the satisfaction of ripping me off.

I am an architect from Central America, I married a Swiss man and moved here, at first it was hard to find work, and I was so depressed at home, for five months, at last I got a chance to do an internship at an architecture firm (and that was tough because my German is good, but not perfect, and I don't have an European diploma). Anyway at first everything was great, I've been working with an Italian architect, and he's basically my boss, on a personal level we get along great, but at work I notice that everything turns out to be my fault, even when I only make mistakes because he's so unorganized and everything has to be done in so little time. After a year I asked my boss if I could have a raise or have a normal job, and he said no.. continue my internship for a year, that I'm in this Italian's shadow.. and as much as I've pleaded to be included in the meetings, and be involved.. I'm not. And I have to deal with the Italian's constant bad mood. Should I tell my boss? We're only 7

We are looking to purchase our first home in the Denver area in about a year. We both have bad/old credit(both of our credit scores are below 600) Our income will be around 75k(I am finshing up nursing shool)

We are trying to see if this is even possible or if we should just be content renting for several more years.

We are expecting a higher interset rate. I have heard of "B loans" & "sub prime lenders" and have been trying to look into them.

We are trying to decide if we should just file bankruptcy now and see if our credit gets better or if it is possible to get a loan?

Will we need 20% down with this bad of credit, or can filing bankruptcy help that?
