Interview questions

[pawpaws2022]

I have one this afternoon! I think I've done all my prep but just in case, if you are an interviewer or have been for an interview
What questions came up/were you asked/like to ask? I have a few hours left to prepare!

Give me an example of a challenge you've had to overcome

Give me an example of where you have gone above and beyond in your role.

The other day I got "do you have siblings? How would they describe you?"

I decided not to mention I'm NC with both of them and the words they would probably use to describe me would not be appropriate for an interview...

The one where they give you a few examples of tasks and ask in what order you would address them

I've been asked what my biggest mistake was and how I rectified it.

Oh these are all fab, thank you and keep them coming! I'm running through the answers in my head and trying not to feel sick

My friend reminded me I have never interviewed for a role and not got it, and now is not the day to break that streak!

Urgh that's an awful question to ask!

OP what's the job so got an idea what they might ask?

Trying to be fairly vague but upmarket/prestige cars

What can you bring to our company/the role.

Why do you want to join our company.

Why should we hire you.

Why are you leaving your current job.

Give me an example of a time when your plans failed.

Could also be questions about organisational skills, team working, dealing with difficult customers/complaints.

The recruiter has rung me twice to remind me
To wear appropriate clothing
To be on time

Me "who have you been sending?!"

What attracted you to the role?

Can you give an example of when you used your initiative to solve a problem?

What do you think are the key components of good customer service?

Can you give an example of how you dealt with a difficult situation?

I hope your interview went/goes well OP. I think sometimes interviewers like to throw curveball questions - like in my case, ugh - to test how you think on your feet.

What excites you about the prospect of working here?

What is your vision for the role?

I'm out and done! 50/50 on how it went
They didn't ask me anything about the company (which I did loads of research on) just a bit about my normal day, how I would deal with X, and how I had gone above and beyond
