Job Interview Questions and Answers

The job interview in English contains specific questions and appropriate answers. It also requires a certain flexibility in your usage of tenses. This feature provides tips on job interview questions and answers in English.

When you walk in the room the very first impression you make on the interviewer can have a great influence on the rest of the interview. It is important that you introduce yourself, shake hands, and are friendly. The first question is often a "breaking the ice" (establish a rapport) type of question. Don't be surprised if the interviewer asks you something like:

● How are you today?

● Did you have any trouble finding us?

● What do you think of the weather lately?

Don't be surprised by the friendly tone. The interviewer wants to put you at ease (help you relax). Answer the question without going into too much detail. The language you use should be simple but polite, for example,

How are you today?

GOOD

I'm fine thank you, and you?

I'm well, thank you.

BAD

So, so.

OK.

Not so well.

What is most important?

Talking about your experience and credentials (qualifications) is the most important part of any job interview. Your qualifications include your education from high school on and any special training you may have done in the past. Your experience is any work that you have done that is directly or indirectly related to the job you are applying for.
