Commonly Asked Questions in Interview

How to prepare for Interview ?

Perhaps,this is a regular question asked by candidates selected in written tests conducted by banks & government organizations. Interview sessions are considered tough by many,as it involves speaking out.Here are some commonly asked questions in Interview & methods to answer them.

Question : Tell /Describe about yourself ( you will be asked this 90% )

Ans-  1)Don’t recite your Resume.

2)Tell about your education, experience, projects worked ,passion etc.

3)Make sure you complete this within 2-3mins.

Q: Why should we hire you into our organization

A : This would be perfect time to tell about your strengths,achievements & assets. Compare your profile with the job role & justify that you will be a best fit for the job. Answers like ‘This is a best company’ , ‘I want a job in this field’ wont impress the interviewer.

Q : What are your strengths & weakness ?

A: Again this is also a commonly asked question to test how much you know of yourself.Make sure the Strengths you say have some relation to the job you applied.

’I am very good in english’ can be said as ‘I have good communication skills’ .

Weakness – ‘I don’t have any weakness’ means you are not ready to talk about it.Similarly don’t say something like, ‘Im short tempered & get angry very soon’ – It gives an impression that you are not fit to work in group.Say something which does not affect the working & also describe about the steps taken to overcome that.

Q: Where do you see yourself after 5 years ?

A: This question would be asked to check how much you know about the career path.

‘After 5 years,I want to be in your seat’ wont work in any case.Think realistically, understand the growth opportunities of that job & put it across to them.

These are just few questions that can be asked during an Interview ,but the list is exhaustive.So be prepared to answer any question with confidence. Read the real experiences of candidates as they share with us on SBI Interview Questions.
