1. Describe a situation in which you were able to use persuasion to successfully convince someone to see things your way.

2. Give me a specific example of a time when you used good judgment and logic in solving a problem.

and especially

3. Tell me about a difficult decision you've made in the last year.

  1. Answer the questions BEFORE the interview.  Get lists of interview questions like this, and spend some time thinking about them and coming up with good answers.  Write the answers down and practice saying them.  Ask friends and family members to critique the answers - they might be able to suggest another example, or catch a negative implication you weren't aware of.

    Then during the interview, all you have to do is repeat a story you already know, instead of having to come up with a new one of the spot and simultaneously evaluating how effective it is.


  2. RE: the Questions asked rehearse possible answers that you would give in those situations.

    If you cannot think of anything make something up :)

    Listen to the questions that are given by the interviewer, make direct eye contact when you answer, smile, dress appropriately.

  3. Hi, i also have an interview tomorrow. If you do not know the answers to the questions they ask then dont panic, think about it, you could refer to a previous job if you have had one, or times you have spent with friends and family and situations you have come across! If you still struggle with finding something to say, still remain calm and just say theres so many i struggle to find just one to talk about, this will give you a bit more time to think about an answer!

    Good Luck!! Hope you get the job!! x  

  4. Rehearse your answers before going in to the interview.

    1) use a similar situation for this answer, Ex.I was at a store and the price on the shelf said X when I went to check out it rang up as Y, I discussed it with the Manager and we both went back and looked at the shelf and package to show him.

    2) I returned home to find the trash can on it's side and parts where eaten from the BBQ last night, the gate was still up and the dog was on the other side, upon closer inspection of the dog he had BBQ sauce on his fur, so he obviously has learned to jump the gate, and escape the seen of the crime.

    3) Ex. I needed to upgrade my phone I researched all the providers in the area asked for a quote using my last three bills from my current provider, weighed all the options and made an informed decision.

    Make these your own and

    Good Luck!

    You can do it!
