Job Interview Questions: What do they ask in a job interview?

I want to know what type of stuff they ask in a job interview

How To Prepare For A Job Interview



Recommended Answer:
If you submitted a resume, a lot of the questions they ask will be about the stuff you've written down on your resume. They'll probably also ask you some questions about their companies (so be sure to do some prior research on the company's background, what they do, their goals, etc before coming to the interview). They'll also want to see if you have the right skillsets for the job (so be sure you know what the job description entails for the job you're apllying for, and be certain that you have the experience or at least the knowledge to perform those duties well if hired). They'll also try to get to know something more about your personality to see if you are a good fit with the current team. Good luck. And remember, this is when the saying "You Only Get One Chance To Make A Good Impression" couldn't be more true, so make sure you're dressed to impress (wear something appropriate for the job). And always remember to send a thank you letter/email to them after the interview (preferably the next day). You will hear back from them if they're interested in bringing you on board. Otherwise, there's very little chance you'll be hearing from them again. If you don't hear from them after 2 days from the time you interviewed, that's a bad sign....you probably didn't get the job. If for some reason they called you and told you that you didn't get the job, you might consider sending another thank you letter/email to thank them for getting back to you. That shows character. There's a good chance they may call you up when they have another job they like to fill.

Job Interview Preparation - Guide and Advice to Help You Prepare for a Job Interview


  • It kind of depends on the industry you are applying for. I usually work in food service/retail so there are all kinds of questions from general to specific. Usually they will inquire about your past work experience, how you handle stress, "what would you do in this scenerio" type of thing. They also may ask you to tell them a little about yourself, what your expectations for the job are, what salary you would like to make, etc.

    In my experience, it just depends on the interview. Sometimes they will tell you on the spot, other times you have to wait for a call back. They usually will tell you when to expect a call if they don't tell you right away.

    Hope this helps! & Good luck.
