As we mentioned before, depending on the style of the interview, the questions can be based on the CV or the competencies required for the position, or any combination between the two. It's interviews we need as much as each interviewer in each candidate. You have to remember that there are no wrong or right answers only answers which fit into a company culture and answers which don't fit. My general advice is to be polite and keep it professional tone. If you don't want to answer a particular question because you think it's too personal. For example, you're planning to get married next year, you have the right not to reply.
You may say I'm sorry, but I don't want to reply to shots a personal question, interviewers sometimes ask questions to push people to their limits and see how they react to stress. Be prepared, though to answer personal questions. That's the nature of the interview process. The interviewer wants to know you better to see if you will be a good match to the team and the company. I have added a list of interview questions Some of the negative answers in the bonus material, download these and study carefully your answers. If you don't understand the meaning of a question, you may ask some clarifications.
For example, can you please clarify what you mean by blah blah? If you need some time to think about your answer, you may ask for it and say something like, I have never been asked this before or I have never thought of it before. Can I have some time to gather my thoughts? If the interviewer gives you these time, they usually do don't expect that you will have many minutes to think thoroughly. And the interviewer may give you a minute or show because he's usually under time pressure. If you don't know how much to explain in your answer and how much time you can take to reply to a question.
You can reply briefly and then ask the interviewer. Would you like me to elaborate? I don't want to take up your time. If he replies Yes, then you have the time to give a thorough answer. If you didn't understand one of the questions. Just don't think Interviewer I'm sorry, but I didn't understand the question.
Can you please explain further? If you didn't hear clearly what the interviewer said, you may say, I'm sorry, I didn't hear you. Can you please repeat what you said sometimes interviewers cross the border sometimes intentionally, sometimes unintentionally, they try to predict future behavior based on the old behavior the candidates expressed in previous jobs, so they insist to ask difficult questions. For example, why realize from your previous job in an effort to predict if you will do the same in the new company, or they may ask you why you dropped off University in an attempt to predict if you are reliable or you will leave from the position after the first challenge. Sometimes they may ask you, your mind or your habits. Some questions are illegal in some countries, so make sure you know your rights.
If you feel awkward replying to a question, just say that you would prefer not to reply to it. candidates have a right to at the end of the interview, the interviewer usually asks you would you like to ask something about the position or the company. Now that's your opportunity to clarify anything about the position, make sure you ask for the next step of the appraisal process. And when you will know about the next step, if you didn't understand something about the position, it's your time to ask, be careful to ask a couple of questions, not loads of them, because it's annoying, especially if the recruiter is in a high. If you don't have any question. That's fine.
You can say something along these lines, you have given me a clearer idea of what the position is about. Thank you for that. I don't have any question right now. But if something comes up, I will contact you. There is a case where the recruiter won't give you the opportunity to ask question. So if you understand today, interviews about clothes, then you may ask can I please ask you a couple of question.
And if he says yes or if she says his you can proceed further. After the interview, shake hands with the interviewer and thank him for his or her time. Say goodbye to the receptionist and the guard who met on your wane. Be polite to everyone. It's important because you don't know who this person is talking to.
