The idea is to stress less for your interview. This tip is about practicing job interview questions. You can practice out loud in front of a mirror or with a friend. Practice with someone that will help you relax as well as correct your “um’s and like’s”. They will also remind you to smile more or make other suggestions.

Here are the Top 10 Job Interview Questions:

1. Tell me about yourself.
Tip: Be brief – don’t disclose things that are personal or that are potential limiting factors for employment. Briefly walk them through your education and work experiences.

2. What interests you about this open position? Think about why you want to work for them? How would you be an asset/fit in?

3. What do you know about our company?
Tip: Check out the company’s website if they have one. Look into topics that you would like to mention during your interview.

4. Why did you leave your last job or why are you thinking about leaving your current job?

5. Tell me about your job experience from previous employers.

6. What experience do you have managing a number of responsibilities?

7. Tell me about your strengths or (the opposite) weaknesses?

Reminder: Don’t be embarrassed by a weakness. You can surely balance your weakness by saying how you deal with it to show that it doesn’t hold you back!

8. Tell me about a time when … (Situation type questions will vary depending on the job.)

Example: Tell me about when you had to take initiative … or when you had to deal with a difficult customer …

9. What salary range are you looking for?

10. What questions do you have for me?

Tip: Research the employer. It can be as simple as a personal question or go above and beyond and ask about a specific project. This shows your interest and to let the interviewer know you’ve learned about it and want to know more.

Just be as prepared as you can be when walking into an interview. You can have a single interviewer or be surprised with a committee board. Just remember that you know why you’re there … They want to get to know you and how you would fit into the job.
