    Quesion 2: Give an example of your ability to handle a last minute assgnment and frequently changing priorities.

    Discriminatory Job Interview Questions to Avoid



    Recommended Answer:
    I would tell the interviewer that generally companies have a line of command that they follow and that an employee can have only one supervisor, Otherwise, it creates confusion in the work place. Therefore, should I encounter the scenario that you described, I would immediately stop working on my supervisor's priority assignment, go to my supervisor's office and inform him about his manager's priority assignment. I would give him the assignment, then ask, what would you like for me to do?

    An example of a last minute assignment for me would be having to give a 5-7 minute speech at a local Toastmasters Club when the designated speaker doesn't show up. I am never unprepared for anything that comes up at the last minute. You can only work on 1-priority task at a time, therefore, ever changing priorities would be re-prioritized based on urgency.

      Job Interview Questions: What is a good response during job interview when asked to explain personal flaws?

      would like to hear some that dont sound to rehearsed or lame...like " i work to hard" or
      "I put my job ahead of myself"...they see right through those..

      Self-Speaking Lies About Job Interviews



      Recommended Answer:
      Employers are mainly looking to see how you handle this question. Everyone has their flaws, but they are looking to see how you handle those flaws.

      Obviously saying something like, "I'm never punctual" or "I'm a bit lazy" is probably not the best response to this question.

      They key to answering this question is finding a way to take a flaw and turn it into a positive. For example, instead of saying "I can be impatient" you might say, "When I see something that needs to get done, I tend to jump right in and start working on something. If there is something I know I can handle and work that needs to be done, I want to jump in and finish the task. There are times when it is best to wait to complete a task and sometimes that can make me a bit impatient."

      That is just an example, but I think the key to answering this question is turning it into a positive. Find a way to tailor it to the job you are interviewing for. If it's a sales job, something employers love to hear would be "I hate to lose" or "Sometimes I can be really competitive." Find a way to turn it into something positive and you should do fine.

        Job Interview Questions: How long does a job interview generally take?

        My husband had an interview scheduled at 2pm.... It's now 3:20 and no word from him yet... Do you think this is a good sign?

        PQ: ummm... What time do your kids take a nap?

        Recommended Answer:
        It depends but longer interview is a good sign. My interview for my current job was like almost two hours

        Top 10 Job Interview Disasters


        • It could be a good sign. The hiring manager (or whoever) may have been running late or they could be showing your husband around the place, letting him see what he might be doing and stuff.

          My 2 1/2 year old daughter doesn't normally take naps anymore. If we have to get up early and go somewhere she might fall asleep in the car on the way home but if we're home all day, she doesn't nap. I can't remember the last time she did LOL.

        • It could be good or bad. If he's still in it, that could be good, but if he's not and he's just out running errands... I dunno. I think the average interview is about 30 minutes.

          PQ: It varies... she's only 2 and a half but doesn't really take naps anymore. If she does, it's around 3, honestly. A bit late for my liking, but it's when she falls asleep. I guess I don't mind since she goes to bed at 8:30p even when she DOES nap.

        • I have been into TONS of interviews and I've done TONS of interviews. An interview can last between 10 minutes to a couple of hours, IMO. He could possibly be waiting to start the interview if someone was running longer in a previous interview or he could be in the interview impressing their socks off their feet. You won't know until you hear from him. Good luck to you both!!

          PQ: My son naps for two hours from 11:50 to about 1:50 (times vary, but normally they are the same)

        • Well, from my own experience it normally takes about 15 to 20 min. But, it can take longer if the interviewer is interested in the interviewee. It is also possible that the interviewee got asked to start working that same day. GOOD Luck & GOD BLESS

        • The interview doesn't take that long, but maybe theyre making him wait and he doesn't want to be on his phone.
          I've only had a couple I think it took like 30 mins? One 15 mins.. It depends what kind of job I guess.


          BQ: Riley is falling sleep right now is 12:26 pm here..

        • Any interview beyond an entry level position takes at minimum an hour, and an interview that is going well I'd expect to take 2 hours or more.

          My kids no longer nap. The 3 year old has "quiet time" at daycare, but she doesn't sleep during that time period.

        • This seems like a long interview. But the more they talk to you, the more likely you can sell yourself. Yes, it's probably a good sign.

        • I'd say that's a good sign...maybe they're going over job specifics or something. Good luck to him.

          PQ: Um...it varies day by day. Sometimes 11, sometimes 1230-1.

        • Depends on how well you're doing :)BQ- She usually take her first nap around 11am.

        • Most job interviews take less than 30 minutes. Maybe its a good sign!

          PQ: My daughter is 8 and doesn't take naps anymore.

        • I've seen my boss interview people anywhere from 3 to 7 hrs. That includes a lunch and a tour of the plant.

        • Longer interviews are a good sign!

        • It can take anywhere from 2-4 hours, depending on the position and the wait.

          You obviously never had an interview before...

        Why Should I Hire You? Job Interview Question and Answers



        Recommended Answer:
        I worked for CVS as a sales associate and shift supervisor. In the interview stress dependability (showing up to work on time). Also stress making the customer #1. Customer service is stressed at CVS. Also emphasize being a team player- helping other workers and looking for stuff that needs doing, like cleaning up the back room, dumping outside trash cans and fronting and facing shelves. Good Luck!
