1. Tell me about yourself...
This question may be used to assess your personality, presentation and communication skills and ability to thing on your feet. Prepare a list of what you do (from your current or previous role),your strengths (stick to the ones that were featured in the application), and a brief summary of your career pathway to date. Finally link your experience to the job that you are being interviewed for.
2. Why are you looking to leave your current role/ employer?
Always respond positively...eg: better career advancement, further challenges, increased responsibility and greater variety in work
3. Why do you want to work for this company?
This is an opening for you to demonstrate your knowledge of the company and reemphasize your suitability for the role.
4. Do you work well under pressure?
Respond with a 'yes' and provide a specific example of a time when you were under pressure and how you rose to the challenge and delivered a successful outcome.
5. Where do you see yourself in five years time?
This is an assessment of the extent of your ambition and career planning. You need to demonstrate that your long term goals are appropriate to the position being discussed. You also need to state your commitment. Ultimately, the employer wants to hear that you will be with them in the long term and that they will get a strong return on their investment in you.
