Question 1
Tell about your work experience, what do look for in you position
This is a very tough question. The hiring manager wants to see what failures you’ve had and what you’ve learned from these mistakes. Answer in a way that puts you in a good light but is honest. For example, an HR professional might mention an over-achievement goal as a failure: “At my previous job, I was only able to get 8 out of 10 policies approved by leadership. However, from this experience, I learned that every leader has different needs, and after applying this lesson I was able to get my next 4 policies approved.” Think of something similar, based on your own job experiences, and put the most positive spin as you can on your answer.
