Dear esteemed partners in progress,

The best strategy is to be honest about your failures. Typically, with this question interviewers seek to understand if you can accept criticism. It is normal to have experienced failures during your career, but if you have learned your lesson and you have accepted your responsibility, you will demonstrate to your interviewer an open personality and a person who is ready to accept criticism to improve oneself.

*Do you balance your professional and personal life on a daily basis and how?

The ability to balance professional and personal life demonstrates a balanced individual, capable of working hard and taking care of family and personal issues. This is a pretty tricky question that requires a lot of consideration before giving an answer. It's better to take you time and think so that you come up with real examples where you had to cope with between work and personal life and what you did to balance them out.

*How did you prepare for this interview?
Most interviewers anticipate that you have done your research on the company, you have visited their website and you are familiar with what the company does, where they operate and what their size is. Besides, depending on the nature of the position, you are expected to have visited particular areas of the website and have collected specific information. For instance, if you are interested in a sales position you should have researched the major products and services the company offers. This is one of the most important questions during a job interview. If you know what the company does, you show that you are interested in the position and enthusiastic to participate in the interview process.

*Why do you think you fit the best for the job?



When asked this question, you are expected to demonstrate all your skills and competencies that make you the perfect fit for the particular job position. To achieve that, you need to understand the major objectives for the position and match your achievements to the job objectives. Besides, the interviewer expects to see your management skills, strategic skills, technical skills and so on, depending on the position.


*Can you tell me about yourself?

Many employers start the interview with this question, most likely seeking to discover your communication skills, your presentation skills and how self-confident you are. The secret in this question is not to get trapped into a lengthy monologue. Try to describe yourself with a summary of your skills and competencies, concentrating on your achievements and accomplishments.

At least start by spelling [b]question [/b]properly in the topic.

Good effort but nowadays these questions are out dated.
