Answer 1

When answering any question, you want to appear to be a good candidate. You also don't want to show yourself in bad light. Always be upbeat and positive, take very little time to think over the answers to any question and speak clearly.
Avoid "Uh..." and similar words like "and we were all like", or "y'know" ...things like that are not good in an interview.

In truth, a lot of the questions you have listed are not the usual questions asked by an interviewer. Most interviewers are not professional interviewers and will have prepared little other than to know what they need in the job and what to look for.

A very good interview technique is to always answer the question and then ASK a question. So have a few ready.

1. where do you want to be in 5 years?
...A: Working for a cutting edge company and doing what I love. Do you feel that the company will be any different in that time?

2. why should i hire you?
...A: My work ethic is above reproach and my skills base is more than needed to do that job. What job skills are you seeking in this position?

3. how did you hear about us?
...A: (Well, this is an easy question....Newspaper ad? friend? Be honest and forthright with your response here.)

4. why do you think you like to work with us?
...A: (Hopefully you have done some research on the company and know a bit about what they do) I have always wanted to work within this industry and found that the goals of the company match my own goals. How long have you been with the company?

5. what do you expect accomplish here?
...A: What everyone expects, really. To find a company where my skills and experience can be put to use and allow me to grow both personally adn professionally.

6. what would you like to know about us?
...A: (Hopefully y ou have been preparing for this question and have question of your own. ONE question.)

7. what skills &abilities you have?
...A: (This is one of those questions which you may never hear. Your resume should have addressed this though you may get questions about some of the skills in particular. Such as "I see you have experience with blah blah blah. How long did you use this piece of equipment? Always answer honestly and quickly. Then...as you see above and below, ask another related question. "I use that for 3 years at the ABC Company. They are a great piece. Do you use the same equipment here?)

8. what do you want from a job?
...A: I'm not looking for a JOB. What I'm seeking is a CAREER. I want to make sure that the right fit exists between my wants and desires and the company's needs in this area.

9. what do you have learned from your mistakes?
...A: (Positve spin, tell a story about a mistake you made, but it has to be good outcome.) I've found that when making a mistake, it's best to own up to it quickly so that it causes fewer problems and so that i can learn and move on. Theroux stated that "We learn best when we learn from our mistakes."

10. would you be willing to move in a job?
...A: (This type of question should always be answered YES. The reason is that you want the job offer so that's what you're going for. Once you get the offer, you can always turn it down if the move is required, but there is also the change that they will adjust to get you in the job.) Yes. Of course, it would depend on the job and the possibilities. Is there a move involved in this job?

11. How do you work under pressure?
...A: Pressure is perceived only when one feels that they cannot do the job in the time allowed. I would hope that if that came about, I could discuss the problems of timing with my supervisor and we could both find a way to work within the time allowed thus relieving any pressure. Communication is the key in any job atmosphere. Is there a lot of time constraints in this job?

12. What things are most important to you in a job?
...A: It is most important to me to be able to not only fit in personally, but to find a place where I can grow professionally and even grow within the company. Can you tell me about the growth possibilities with this position?

13. why do you choose this field? eg HR, Finance etc
...A: (Gotta be honest here, too, but stay away from "I got a free scholarship and said what the heck.) I've always been involved in this field, even when I was a kid....


14. What have you learned from your own?
...A: (I can pretty much guarantee that you may never hear this question)

15. Why are you leaving your current job?
...A: I'm always interested in finding a better fit professionally. When I saw the ad, I had to find out if the company was as good to work for as I had hoped.

16. overall did you meet your goals?
...A: Yes. goals are the one thing that any job has which can give you a way of measuring your abilities. What are the goals in this job, on a day to day basis?

17. what do you dislike about your previous job?
...A: My previous job really didn't give me the growth that I would have liked.

18. strengths and weakness. what we need to tell appropriately? (You want to show off your abilities and play down any real weaknesses.)
...A: My strengths are my ability to channel my energies into the work, prioritizing and getting the work don on time. My weakness is paperwork. Because of this, I like to get the paper work out of the way first thing.

19. Do you like to travel to some place and why?
...A: I like to travel for work, as I feel it gives one a perspective of the larger picture. Does this job have travel involved?

Any questions you ask should be directed about the job and it's requirements or the company or the industry. DO NOT ask about Wages, pay, retirement or benefits until you have discussed the job in it's entirety. Asking about benefits before you discuss the job fully tells the interviewer that you are only interested in pay and not in getting the job done. (Most interviewers will cover this subject without asking and some say that the best time to ask about this is when the job offer is made. "I'm glad to have you offer me the job! Before I say YES, could we take a few minutes and discuss the compensation package for this position?" )

Answer 2

1. Successful in any endeavor I choose.
2. I feel I would be an asset to your company.
3. How did you hear about them? Tell the truth.
4. Benefits offered, strong company etc.
5. I expect to accomplish all that is expected of me and more.
6. Ask about benefits - health insurance, retirement plan, opportunities to advance, college reimbursement.
7. Speak the truth. Make a list of your skills and also say that you are willing and eager to learn.
8 - 19 Tell the truth but use tact.

Answer 3

just turn negs into positives.....for instance...my weakness is wanting to do a perfect job. 5 years from now I want to be telling people look where I am now in the company with a little hard work and dedication....dont put down your past employers.....Good luck. Look into starting your own biz and stop jumping through hoops.

Answer 4

the basics of the corporation should be researched by ability of you earlier going for your interview. belongings you would possibly want to ask: What type of advance oppertuities do you've, is there time previous regulation availble, very particular questions about their product to make you look more beneficial intersted, ask the interview how lengthy they worked their and what they prefer best about the corporation.

Answer 5

as someone who hires a lot of people - I can tell when you answer these questions and they are not your honest answers.

You need to think your way through these questions and answer them honestly as they apply to you. That is the reason for asking the questions.
