Interview Questions


 Prof Abdelhamid Fouda 

===========================


In 2020, most modern employers are using carefully-worded behavioral interview questions designed to expose your biggest weakness …

They'll ask you about lengthy projects you've been involved in — how your role evolved, how you handled deadlines, how you handled pressures and difficult personalities. You're going to need ultra-specific examples.

They're going to be asking you for details; including names of people, dates, and measurable outcomes. They're going to be testing you in lots of different ways.

Use my interview preparation materials to warmly and confidently answer the tricky behavioral interview questions you should be expecting from HR.

Here's my promise …

  • You learn to "Package & Spin" your work experience so it's the perfect fit for the job.
  • You become more confident in your self-presentation; easily calming nerves or fear.
  • Feel comfortable using professional words, phrases, and METRICS to communicate your value.
  • Speak about your strengths and past successes in a memorable & convincing way.
  • Plan the best questions for YOU to ask the interviewers to show them you're smart and engaged.
  • Tell them exactly what they want to hear — so you GET HIRED.

… and here's my proposition to you:

You can become fully prepared for your interview right now w/ organized, intelligent templates & materials that have been strongly recommended by hundreds of people.

You only have a limited time in front of the interviewer, and with that time you must say the most powerful and most calculated things to get them to want to hire you.

✔︎ Calms your nerves & saves you time. You'll know exactly what to do to get ready — and with preparation comes confidence.


My name is Bob Firestone and I've dedicated the last 16 years to continually improving my job interview training materials that have now helped over 40,000 people (read all reviews) to interview confidently and get hired.

Over 5,000 people have connected with me on LinkedIn to thank me for opening their eyes to these powerful psychology-based ideas.

Look at these examples:


Example Questions & Answers From The Guide:

Every example interview question in the Guide begins with 1) a strategic discussion of the question, 2) the reasons why they are asking it, and 3) what they probably want to hear in your response:

Describe a problem you faced on the job, and tell me how you solved it.

ANSWER STRATEGY:
First, identify their "pain points" or current challenges you think they might be facing. Next, explain the POSITIVE OUTCOME and MEASURABLE RESULTS you achieved by solving a similar problem … then get them to agree with you that your experience in that area is exactly what they're looking for.

Here's the basic answer formula I'll teach you:

"Sure, at my last job we had a problem where the situation was "X" ... the action I took was "Y" ... and the positive outcome was "Z" ... In an email to the entire team I was praised by Susan, the Project Manager, for solving the problem and cutting costs about 15% for that project. We were also able to deliver in about ⅔ the time it would have taken us otherwise. What I learned from the situation was "ABC." I think that's the type of experience you are looking to bring to your team … isn't it?"

"Give Them Measurable Proof in the form of Personal Success Metrics From Your Job History."

Your training materials will reveal several ways of coming up with measurable proof numbers that are based on your own past work experience & achievements. You'll discover it's as easy as fill-in-the-blanks to create your proof — and it's SO effective in getting people to buy into your potential & your value as an employee.

You'll have powerful statements like this you can deliver with confidence:

"I think my experience with [Company XYZ] in cutting costs 30% / saving 20 man-hours of work per week / increasing revenue by 14% / getting the job done about 50% faster / decreasing turn-around time by ⅓ / helping customers 20% more of the time is the type of experience that will help me succeed in this role ..."

"... Plus my strengths in industry knowledge / time management / goal-setting / teamwork / empowering others / persuasive presentations / partnering & negotiating / innovation & creativity / strategic leadership / special skill really make me a strong candidate."

✔︎ Don't be bashful — You've gotta say stuff like this! … I give you all the vocabulary for describing your strengths.

… then get them to agree with you:

"You'd agree that having this type of experience would probably help me succeed in this position … wouldn't you?"  (say it with a smile)

"Would that type of problem-solving experience be relevant to this job?"

Here's a more fully formed example answer to the above question:

"When facing problems I try to take a systematic approach. I think it's important to clarify the problem first and get as much information as I can by collaborating with important stakeholders — BEFORE I start proposing possible solutions. I also try to think about what the best possible outcome might look like. FOR EXAMPLE, when I was at Company XYZ … (use one of your S.O.A.R.L. Stories here) … and the result was about a 15% increase in cost-savings for that project. What I learned was [XYZ] …

… What types of challenges are you currently facing in your department? … What might I do to help you solve those problems in my first couple months on the job here?"

“... Learn The Perfect Answer To Any Question They Could Possibly Throw At You ...”

Example Interview Question

What did you like best and least about your previous job?

STRATEGY:
 This is potentially a trick question. You want to indicate that what you liked best about your last job are things that will appeal to the Hiring Manager. Show that your last job allowed you to demonstrate many of the positive and desirable Behavioral Competencies that are discussed in-depth at the beginning of the Guide. Give specific examples of how your last job allowed you to flex your skills and show your maturity.

"What I liked about my last was I was able to really develop my "XYZ" skills which I know will help me succeed here if I am fortunate enough to be able to join your team. What are the qualities of the people who have been most successful in your department?"

(Notice the "data-mining" question ↑↑ about the skills and characteristics of other people. You're sniffing for clues about what they want to hear!)

"One thing I liked about my last job was it allowed me to develop my project management skills ... FOR EXAMPLE, I was put in charge of a project where I had to earn the "buy-in" of people from several different departments — and I had all the responsibility for getting the project completed but no real authority over my teammates. I was successful because I involved key stakeholders from the beginning. My team knew that other people were on board, so I was able to negotiate them to an agreement on deadlines. Then day-to-day I made sure everyone was completing their work on time by setting up a progress tracking system … Can I tell you about it?"

Interview Question

What's the worst mistake you ever made on the job, and what did you learn from it?

STRATEGY:
 Think about what they want to hear. Show that you are able to learn from your mistakes, but don't offer up any negative examples concerning your past performance. Show that you have been successful, but that you have the maturity it takes to examine your own behavior so you can learn and grow and be a better employee. Be brief.

"Good question. Well, I have been successful at every job I've had, but I have had the normal ups and downs. I'd say that I do actively try to monitor the quality of my work so I can constantly be improving myself. FOR EXAMPLE, I have had one or two hiccups with clients (or customers) where their satisfaction was not exactly where I thought it was. I learned that I have to really monitor certain difficult clients closely and "take their temperature" so I can keep their satisfaction level as high as possible. Have YOU had any customers like that here?"

“... Will Fill You With Motivation And Confidence ...”

Interview Question

Describe a situation when working with a team produced more successful results than if you had completed the project on your own.

STRATEGY:
 This is another Behavioral Interview style of question. The Hiring Manager wants to learn more about your thought process, and your behavioral competencies related to teamwork. You will want to show your ability to solicit ideas from others, listen carefully, and persuade people to your point of view.

"Well, throughout my career I've worked both independently and as a member of many teams. I have to say, though, that collaborating with other people across departments is always a good idea — specifically when it comes to brainstorming and knowledge sharing. When it's appropriate, I try to get outside perspectives on possible solutions. I did that a lot at Job 'ABC'. FOR EXAMPLE … and the OUTCOME was a roughly 30% increase in cost-savings for the company, and a significant decrease in the time it took to complete the project."

"Would that type of experience be relevant to this job? ... Great! ... So when do I start? ..."  (don't be afraid so throw some humor in if it's going well!)

Former NASA Astronaut
A picture of CJ Loria

"I purchased your book right after I graduated from college. Your book was a life changing shift for me in understanding job interviews and it landed me a job. Recently my son was born and we relocated to NC from CT. I'm now actively looking for work again & I thought I still had a copy of your book but can't find it! — all those perfect answers i had tailored to my work experience, and the breathing techniques, the confidence builders, are all gone. I have a phone interview today and I've been doing my own research and compiling different questions and answers but NOTHING is as helpful as your book was to me! Can you send me a new copy? THANKS!"
