37 common interview questions and their answers

PART III

11. What kind of salary do you need?
A loaded question!!  A nasty of a little game that you probable loose if you answer first, so do not answer it, instead say something like; that’s tough question, can you tell me the range for this position? In most cases the interviewer taken off guard will tell you. If not say that it can depend on the details of the job then give a wide range.

12. Are you a team player?
You are of course a team player, be sure to have examples ready. Specifics that show you often perform for the good of the team rather than for yourself, one evidence of your team attitude. Do not brag, just say it in a -matter - of - fact tone. This is a key point.

13. How long would you expect to work for us if hired?
Specifics are not good, something like this should work; I like to be long time, OR as long as we both feel I am doing a good job.

14. Have you ever had to fire anyone? How did you feel about that?
This is serious, do not make light of it in any way seem to like you like to fire peoples, at the same time you will do it if it  is the right things to do when it comes to organization versus the individual who has created a harmful situation, you will protect organization. Remember firing is not the same as layoff or reduction in force.

15. What is your philosophy toward work?
The interviewer is not looking for long flowery dissertation here. Do you have a strong feeling that the job is done?  yes. That’s the type of answer that works best here. Short and positive,  showing a benefit to the organization.
