“Hello I’d like to call you in for an interview about the job you applied for.”
Fantastic. A smile radiates across your face. And then you think about all the horrible, awkward questions they might ask. The traps, the tricks, the trying-to-catch-you-out stare of the other person who just sits making notes. But there are a few simple tips to make an interview a positive experience which should help you bag that job.
This website has a comprehensive list of possible questions and the best answers – as well as the explanation for why you might be asked it. A friend once had an interview where, right in the middle, they asked him to tell a joke. He froze, thought for a moment, and then hit them with this gem.
He got the job too.
