SOCIALIZE IT →


If you are looking to appear for an interview, then given below are top 10 interview questions that can help you prepare for the interview. Behind every interview question there is a concern or another question. So give your answer proper & point to point.

1. Tell me something about yourself?
This is the opening question of every interview.It seems like an easy interview question, but be careful while you answer it. Do not run into an answer for the sake of saying it. Keep the answer to a length that will last for a minute or two maximum. Try to cover the four topics – education, early years, work experience and recent career experience.

2. Why Do You Want to Leave Your Current Job?
Keep your answers to this question as positive as possible. Do not dwell on how much you hate your current boss. The interviewer wants to hire a team player to the position, not a negative and vindictive hater.

3. Why should I hire you?
The easy answer is that you are the best person for the job. And don’t be afraid to say so. But then back it up with what specifically differentiates you. Never compare yourself with other candidates. Comparisons can certainly work against you.

4. What is your greatest strength?
A number of answers are good, just try and stay positive and as cool as possible. A few good examples: your problem solving skills, leadership skills or positive attitude.

5. What is your greatest weakness?
Do not say you have none - this will lead to further problems. You should always select a weakness that you have been actively working to overcome. Always talk about a true weakness and also tell them how you are trying to overcome it.

6. How long would you stay with us? 
I would love to work with you as long as we both feel that I am contributing, achieving and growing enough.

7. What do you know about our company?
Do enough research before going for the Interview! Spend some time reading or researching for the company. Tell them about the current status of the company.

8. Why have you applied for this particular job?A: The employer is looking for evidence that the job suits you, fits in with your general aptitudes, coincides with your long-term goals and involves doing things you enjoy.  Make sure you have a good understanding of the role and the organization, and describe the attributes of the organization that interest you most. 

9. What is more important to you money or work?
Money is always important, but work is more important. You cannot give a better answer than this one.

10. Where Do You Want to Be Five Years From Now?
Suffice it to say, do not answer this question with, “Retired.” Keep your answers positive and simple, with just a tinge of ambition. Think along the lines of a “motivated” versus “rat race” mentality.
