21. Do you have a competitive nature?
I have competitive nature but it is up to my requirement to get work has done or not. I like to dominate the co-workers to get my job done. I compete myself to improve my performance. I fix my own targets. If the target is achieved then I will try to double the target to get success. I will work for the company with the competitive spirit by using my potentials.
22. Name three books you have read in the past six months?
Better tell about the management oriented books. It will give you more plus points. If you are a technical person tell about the character oriented or positive oriented books. If you like entertainment books do not tell about all the three books. You can only tell about one book.
23. Who is your role model?
The role model should be related to your work. Innovative ideas, character which have an impact on your life. First tell about his name, profession then switch on the positive points in him and you like most in him. How he contributed to society. If you know him for years you can mention that also. How it impacts on your life to improve by yourself. Tell him that where you studied and where you heard about him. It creates good impression about you.
24. Where do you see yourself five years from now?
Be well prepared for this question. If you cannot answer correctly for this question, it indicates that you are not well planned about your future and you are irresponsible. They want to know whether you are focused on professional goals. Five years from now, I see myself working for this company. Satisfying the employer is a big task. I will take it as responsibility and I will work hard for the growth with great co-ordination of co-workers. I see myself taking on new and exciting challenges in an enjoyable environment and hopefully this will be with your company.
Do not indicate that you hope to start your own business, change careers, or go back to school. Such responses indicate a lack of long-term interest since you do not plan to be around for long. While some may respond that they honestly haven't really thought that far ahead, the interviewer infers that the applicant lacks vision and goals.
25. Suppose I tell you I don’t like your face, then why should I select you?
Even if you do not like my face, you definitely would agree that I have other qualities that appealed you, for which you are now interviewing me.
“A book is not judged by its cover but it is judged by its contents”
26. Suppose you find yourself in a deserted island. What three things you will need to survive?
Food, water and Hope (that one day I will definitely come out from this island).
28. Tell me about your dream job.
This is your ideal chance to sell your aptitudes that fit the job description. Show an interest in finding new ways these skills can be put to use in a new job with additional responsibilities. Tie in the industry, size of company, or other factors where appropriate.
"My dream job would include all of the responsibilities and duties in this position you're trying to fill. I also thrive in a fast-changing environment where there's business growth. Your plans call for expanding internationally during the next year, and this would satisfy one of my ultimate goals of being involved in an international corporation."
29. Can you work under pressure? If yes, how please explain?
Sir, I can handle pressure of work. Let me explain how. Whenever there is pressure of work, we need to tackle it from the mental and physical stand-point. Mental stand-point would mean being in a state of relaxation and composure so that I do not feel stressed out during the course of my work and from physical stand-point; I always prioritize my job in their exact order of merit and importance so that I can dispose them off quickly and effectively.
30. Do you have any blind spots?
Trick question. If you know about blind spots, they are no longer blind spots. Do not reveal
any personal areas of concern here. Let them do their own discovery on your bad points. Do
not hand it to them.
31. What color is your brain?
Be aware that you'll probably be asked zany questions. The point is not to stump you, but to find out what makes you tick. When the standard interview questions are asked, people are prepared, and it's harder for the recruiter to get to know the real person. An advertising recruiter, for example, tries to avoid this. There is no right or wrong answer to this type of question. In fact, the recruiter won't even really care what your answer is. He or she just doesn't want to hear something like, "I don't know, I guess it's blue because that's the way I imagine it." The point is to see how creative you are and how you think. Be sure to explain why you answered the way you did.
"My brain is red because I'm always hot. I'm always on fire with new plans and ideas."
32. Are you a hard worker or smart worker?
In this question you have to balance both. My studies and experiences are telling that I am a hard worker. How ever I am ready to learn how to work smartly. But for the job IQ is not only the main factor. Interacting with people, solving business problems and making decisions related to the job are important. According to me both hard work and smart work are inter related and necessary for the job.
33. What is more important to you money or hard work?
Hard work is most important. There is a proverb "sow as you reap" which says hard works make money. Hard work is the bottom line of the satisfaction and money. So my theme is to work hard and money will follow me. So you can use your own words to impress the interviewer but don't be too smart.
34. Do you work well under pressure?
Definitely, positive pressure makes me so responsible towards work. I will work to the best of my ability. But when I am under negative pressure I do not feel insecure. My experience as a sports person will help me to get over it. I have sportive spirit and i get out of pressure. I can manage the pressure. I will find out an alternative resource which is useful and share work to get things done in time for any cause. According to me to be a best worker means work to be done in time under any circumstances.
35. What do you know about our company?
Find out the maximum positive points as you can which were related to your job and overall growth. If company is in share market then talk about the share value, growth rate, turnover value to the employees, future projects, upcoming products, events, security etc. Tell them which is beneficial to your profile and career. If it is a private company then talks about the fame, salaries, value to the employee, turnover, brand name etc. Collect the matter from the company, company's Website and employee details before attending to the interview and practice well.
