questions. This is based on the premise that a candidate's past performance is the best predictor of
future performance. You will you need to be prepared to provide detailed responses84 including specific
examples of your work experiences. Review examples of behavioral interview questions85.
Tough Interview Questions86
These are some of the more difficult interview questions that you may be asked on a job interview.
Interview Questions to Ask87
The last job interview question you may be asked is "What can I answer for you?" Have an interview
question88 or two of your own ready to ask. You aren't simply trying to get this job - you are also
interviewing the employer to assess whether this company and the position are a good fit for you.
Compile Responses to Interview Questions
Take the time to compile a list of responses to both types of interview questions and to itemize your
skills, values, and interests as well as your strengths and weaknesses. Emphasize what you can do to
benefit the company rather than just what you are interested in.
Add an Interview Question89
Have you been asked an interview question that isn't on the list? Share the questions you have been
asked on job interviews and add them to our list.
Activity 9
Scenarios
For all scenarios, assume you are employed by Best Computer Systems, a large computer manufacturing company with approximately 1000
employees. The company is located in a large metropolitan area.
CASE 1: Lorna is an administrative assistant in the Human Resources Department. Her good friend, Bill,
is applying for a job with the company and she has agreed to serve as a reference for him. Bill
approaches her for advice on preparing for the interview. Lorna has the actual interview questions asked
of all applicants and considers making him a copy of the list so he can adequately prepare.
CASE 2: Emily works in Quality Control. Once a year, her supervisor gives away the refurbished
computers to the local elementary school. No specific records are kept of this type of transaction and
Emily really needs a computer for her son who is in college. Her supervisor asks her to deliver 12
computer systems to the school.
CASE 3: Marvin is the secretary in the Facilities Management Department. He has just received a new
computer and wants to try it out. Though his supervisor has a strict policy about computer use for
business purposes only, he wants to learn the e-mail software more thoroughly than his training can
provide. One good way to do this, he figures, is to write e-mail messages to his friends and relatives until
he gets the knack of it. He is caught up on all his work and only has 30 minutes left to work today. His
supervisor left early.
CASE 4: Richard and Conway are talking in the hallway about the employee benefits program. Conway,
who has had some recent financial trouble, explains to Richard how the benefits program has a loophole
that will allow him to receive some financial assistance that he really needs to help pay health care costs
for his mother. Cathy, a fellow worker, overhears the conversation. Later, Cathy is approached by her
supervisor who says he heard a rumor that some people were taking advantage of the company benefits
program.
CASE 5: Jennie was recently hired to work as a receptionist for the front lobby. As receptionist, she is
responsible for making copies for the associates. Her son, Bruce, comes in and needs some copies for a
school project. He brought his own paper and needs 300 copies for his class. If he doesnt bring the
copies with him, he will fail the project. The company copier does not require a security key nor do they
keep track of copies made by departments.
