I have more opportunities here to express myself.Therefore I choose this as career.
2. WHY SHOULD I HIRE U?
Ans-Because I am hard working & I think I have all necessary qualities that
are required for this job
3. Question 1: Why Do You Want To Work For Us?
Its rare for an interview not to include this question.
The good news is that its an easy one to prepare for.
Most companies want to recruit people who are enthusiastic about the
company and its products. They dont want people on the team who ended
up there by accident. So this is your chance to show why working for the
company is important to you and why you think you will fit in.
They will be looking for evidence that you can make a contribution and will be
able to grow into the role they are recruiting.
This question is designed to screen out candidates who arent serious about
the company or may be using it as a stop-gap, while they look for something
better.
Its also your chance to make the most of the company research you have
done. You can use this opportunity to add comments that show you
understand the companys position in the market place; the role of its
competitors and any challenges it may be facing.
Sample Answer: I'm not looking for just another pay check. I enjoy my work
and am proud of my profession. Your company produces a superior
product/provides a superior service. I share the values that make this
possible, which should enable me to fit in and complement the team."

Question 2: What interests you about this job?


When you're asked what interests you about the position you are interviewing
for, the best way to respond is to describe the qualifications listed in the job
posting, then connect them to your skills and experience. That way, the
employer will see that you know about the job you're interviewing for (not
everyone does) and that you have the qualifications necessary to do the job.
For example, if you were interviewing for a Human Resources Manager job
where you would be responsible for recruiting, orientation, and training, you
will want to discuss how you were responsible for these functions in your past
positions, and why you are interested in continuing to develop your expertise
in Human Resources management.

Another example would be if you were interviewing for a Programmer /


Analyst position. In that case, you would mention your interest in learning
and excelling at new technologies, your experience in programming both new
applications, and your interest in and your ability to problem solve.
In all cases, you will want to convey your enthusiasm for the opportunity to
interview, along with your solid ability to do the job.

Question 3: What do you know about Our Company?


A typical job interview question, asked to find out how much company
research you have conducted, is "What do you know about this company?"
Prepare in advance, and in a word, research, so, you can provide relevant and
current information about your prospective employer to the interviewer. Start
by researching the company online. Review the "About Us" section of the
company web site. Google the company, read blogs that mention it, and
check Discussion Boards and social networking sites.
Use the information you have gathered to create a bulleted list of relevant
information that you can easily remember during the interview. Taking the
time to research will help you make a good impression with how much you
know about the company.

Question 4: What challenges are you looking for in this position?


A typical interview question to determine what you are looking for your in
next job, and whether you would be a good fit for the position being hired for,
is "What challenges are you looking for in a position?"
The best way to answer questions about the challenges you are seeking is to
discuss how you would like to be able to effectively utilize your skills and
experience if you were hired for the job.
You can also mention that you are motivated by challenges, have the ability
to effectively meet challenges, and have the flexibility and skills necessary to
handle a challenging job.
You can continue by describing specific examples of challenges you have met
and goals you have achieved in the past.

Question 5: Who was your best boss and who was the worst?
I've learned from each boss I've had. From the good ones I learnt what to do,
from the challenging ones - what not to do.
Early in my career, I had a mentor who helped me a great deal, we still stay
in touch. I've honestly learned something from each boss I've had.

Question 6: What have you been doing since your last job?
If you have an employment gap on your resume, the interviewer will probably
ask you what you have been doing while you were out of work.
The best way to answer this question is to be honest, but do have an answer
prepared. You will want to let the interviewer know that you were busy and
active, regardless of whether you were out of work by choice, or otherwise.
As I said, it doesn't really matter what you did, as long as you have an
explanation. Hiring managers understand that people lose their job - it can
happen to anyone - and it's not always easy to find a new job fast. Also, there
are legitimate non-employment reasons for being out of the workforce.

Question 7: Why did you choose this particular career path?


Sometimes in interviews, you will be asked questions that lend themselves to
be answered vaguely or with lengthy explanations. Take this opportunity to
direct your answer in a way that connects you with the position and
company, be succinct and support your answer with appropriate specific
examples.
Sample Answer: "I chose advertising because I have always been a strong
communicator with a good eye for design. I have a particular interest in
creating dynamic eye-catching pieces that support a new product being
introduced to the market. I also like the fast-paced high-energy environment
that seems to be commonplace in the advertising industry."
Advice: Your answer needs to convince the interviewers that your skills are
exactly what they want. They want to know if you have a realistic view of
what it is like to work in their industry. Be specific; show them that their
industry and your career goals are in sync.

Question 8: What are your aspirations beyond this job?


Again, don't fall into the trap of specifying job titles. Stick to a natural
progression you see as plausible. How should this job grow for the good of the
organization? Then turn your attention once again to the job at hand. If you
seem too interested in what lies beyond this job, the interviewer will fear that
you won't stick around for long.
Sample Answer: Beyond this job as a marketing assistant, I see myself
moving up through marketing analysis into brand management and
eventually running a category. I'm aware that there are several skills I need to
develop in the interval, and I believe with your continuing-education program

and my own motivation for self-improvement, I'll have those skills when the
opportunities arise for greater responsibility. That's why I'm determined to
learn from the ground up, starting as a marketing assistant.

Question 9: Why do you think this industry would sustain your


interest in the long haul?
What expectations or projects do you have for the business that would enable
you to grow without necessarily advancing? What excites you about the
business? What proof can you offer that your interest has already come from
a deep curiosity-perhaps going back at least a few years-rather than a current
whim you'll outgrow?
Sample Answer: The technology in the industry is changing so rapidly that I
see lots of room for job enhancement regardless of promotions. I'm
particularly interested in the many applications for multimedia as a training
tool.

Question 10: Tell me about yourself?


This is not an invitation to ramble on. If the context isn't clear, you need to
know more about the question before giving an answer. In such a situation,
you could ask, "Is there a particular aspect of my background that you would
like more information on?" This will enable the interviewer to help you find
the appropriate focus and avoid discussing irrelevancies.
Whichever direction your answer ultimately takes, be sure that it has some
relevance to the world of your professional endeavours. The tale you tell
should demonstrate, or refer to, one or more of your key behavioural profiles
in action--perhaps honesty, integrity, being a team player, or determination.
If you choose "team player" (maybe you're the star player on your team
tennis group), you can tell a story about yourself outside of work that also
speaks volumes about you at work. In part, your answer should make the
connection between the two, such as, "I put my heart into everything I do,
whether it be sports or work. I find that getting along with teammates--or
professional peers--makes life more enjoyable and productive."
Or you might describe yourself as someone who is able to communicate with
a variety of people, so give an example from your personal life that indicates
an ability to communicate also at work.
This isn't a question that you can answer effectively off the cuff. Take some

time in advance to think about yourself and those aspects of your personality
and/or background that you'd like to promote or feature for your interviewer.
