How do people know in advance about interview questions?

Question

I keep seeing questions people are placing on here as interview questions? I've conducted lots of interviews and have never released the questions in advance. So, how do these people know what questions will be answered?

Answer 1

It's like anything else in life- experience. When people get done with interviews, they often repeat the questions to friends and the word gets passed on, sort of like a test. "What do you consider your biggest weakness?" 'Working too much' is always a good answer.
There are plenty of books and articles on this subject, but I would recommend tailoring your questions to really weed out the people you don't want and find the peple you do want. Don't let them prepare! Best of luck to you.

Answer 2

They have resume and interviews books. They search the internet to help them prepare for interview. Everyone knows to prepare themselves for interviews(that's common sense). They have information at the college/univerisites in the career center. Sometimes, you pretty much know what questions the HR Manager/Recruiter are asking to ask you, people know they are going to ask questions from their resumes, based on work experience, etc. For example, you are interviewing for an Customer Service Representative, you they are going to ask how would handle customer calls, and what will do in situations. I hope this has answered your question.
