If you attend an interview and they ask you what is your objective and attributes, what would you answer?

Question

Example I'm applying for company thats deal with Petroleum my qualification is in IT but i would like working in Administrative field

or goal and etc

Answer 1

That's usually the point at which I walk out of the interview. Those are generic grab bag interview questions that any HR moron that read something like "Conducting Interviews for Dummies" or "Idiots Guide to Giving Interviews" would ask. To me it's a huge red flag of a bureaucratic, unimaginative company that I probably won't like working at anyway.

Answer 2

Tailor the objective toward the job you are applying for. If you were an accountant, perhaps you might say to obtain your CPA in the next year so that you would be able to pursue a future partnership. Your attributes would be things like, team player, excellent communication skills, organizational abilities, flexible and able to handle multiple tasks simultaneously, reliable, hard worker, professional, creative, love challenges and solving problems, etc.

Answer 3

Id probably gear my objectives to whatever type of work im applying for. Like if you are looking to work in finance Id say something like Im interested in moving up in this company, looking forward to taking my GMAT...etc
Ur attributes should be general like u r an honest person, u dont mind hard work and you are willing to sacrifice much to have a position such as this.
