Interview is the best way to understand the working ability and comprehensive quality of candidates. The interview questions of HR managers are often strange. If you can master some frequently asked questions before the interview, the chances of success will increase accordingly. Here are 15 interview questions and answering skills commonly used by HR managers for your reference.
1. Please talk about yourself first.
There are two ways to answer this question: one is to answer the question directly, which can answer your greatest strengths, characteristics, expertise, etc; The second is to quickly transfer the answers to your skills, experience and training for the current job after simply stating yourself.
2. Why did you come to our company to apply?
Candidates should generally prepare several reasons before the interview, but the reasons should be short and practical. In order to show the reason for the application and the willingness to work, the answer should preferably be related to the product and enterprise of the company to be applied for. It is better not to answer because there is room for development in the future, because the answer such as stability should show that you have fully studied the enterprise.
3. How much do you know about the company?
This is a question to test the candidates' interest in the company and their willingness to work in the company. Just answer a part of the company profile and the advertisement for recruiting personnel.
4. What do you think of the current situation of this industry?
This question is mainly to understand the job seekers' understanding and outlook on the current situation of the industry. For the inexperienced, it is to test his willingness and concern for the work. Since you have just graduated from school, your knowledge in this field only stays on the books. You don't need to pretend to be expert in front of the HR manager, nor need to state any original opinions. You just need to convey correct and true opinions.
5. What is your work view?
Don't think too complicated. You can answer "Why do you work", "What do you get from your work", "What plans do I have for myself after N years" and so on.
6. Why are you looking for such a position?
If you ask this question, the other party wants to know whether you belong to the kind of person who can work in any company. If so, he will not be interested in you. Employers are looking for people who can solve problems at work. Such people work harder and more efficiently. So, you can answer: "I spent a lot of time designing my career. I think this kind of work is suitable for me, because many questions required by this work are my hobbies and my strengths."
7. Can you accept overtime?
This is to check your enthusiasm for work. As a young man, he should show great importance and enthusiasm for his work. Of course, unreasonable overtime is not necessarily good. You'd better answer "if it is within your own responsibility, it can not be regarded as overtime".
8. What kind of treatment do you want?
It is best to give a clear and definite answer to the treatment question. It is necessary to objectively summarize the individual's age, experience and ability, and then propose reasonable figures based on objective data such as industry category and company size, but it is also necessary to explain the reasons for improving treatment. This is also a good opportunity to evaluate the candidate's ability and experience and show confidence.
9. What benefits do you expect to get besides salary?
If you are fully prepared, you should know what benefits the company you are applying for can provide, and you can answer truthfully. If you think you deserve more, you can ask for more, but you'd better explain why. One thing to remind us is that when your salary conditions exceed the interviewee's budget, but they are satisfied with your ability, they may ask you: "We can't meet your salary requirements for the time being. If you first give XX (the salary that the company can provide), can you accept it?" If you accept, congratulations, Nine out of ten you have got the job.
10. Have you ever thought about starting a business?
This question can show your vision. If you answer "Yes", you should be ready to answer the next question. That is: "Why don't you do that?"? If you answer "No", you must add that you want to work in the enterprise first and accumulate some necessary social experience before planning such plans.
11. What are your strengths?
This is to understand how job seekers analyze themselves objectively and test their expressive and organizational abilities. Abstract statements should be avoided and specific experiences should be used to add attraction. In addition to stating your own advantages, you should also pay attention to speaking politely, which will also be included in the scoring items. It is better to add "friends said so." and other people's views on yourself.
12. What shortcomings do you think you have?
Many candidates say their shortcomings are ambiguous, hoping that others will regard them as your strengths. For example, if you answer, "I'm impatient." I hope the examiners think you are full of energy. They have been tired of hearing such words for a long time. You should face up to your own shortcomings and win the approval and appreciation of the examiner with your honesty and courage.
13. Tell me about your interpersonal experience?
This is to test your ability to cope and make decisions. You can answer the following questions from the side: "How do you deal with conflicts with friends?" and "How do you make others accept your opinions when you conflict with others' opinions?". What every company needs is not the persistence to the end, but the further collection of data, the accumulation of strength through interpersonal relationships, and the search for correct work decisions and methods.
14. When can you come to work?
Most enterprises will care about the time of employment. The best answer is: if employed, you can work according to the company's regulations on the day of arrival. However, if there are still some personal problems that have not been solved, it will be difficult to work on time. You should further explain the reasons. The company will generally be accommodating.
15. Do you have any questions?
If you smile and say "no" (thinking that it is finally over, you take a long breath), that is a big mistake. This is often understood as your lack of deep interest in the company and the job. When answering this question, you can use some side questions to test the examiners and infer how much hope they have for being shortlisted.
