Frequently Asked Questions in an Interview

Here are some of the areas that employers most often ask about in an interview: 
 
Resume questions are frequently asked. These relate to your past experience, skills, jobs, responsibilities, education, upbringing, and personal interests. 
Be prepared to answer questions regarding your long- and short-term career objectives. 
Your best achievements and worst career mistakes. 
Your style and approach regarding how you deal with difficult people. 
Some interviewers require that you explore hypothetical scenarios that you might encounter. Such questions may be how would you go about laying off 100 employees? Or what if the company raised its prices substantially and you received numerous customer complaints? 
 
Interviewers frequently ask stressful questions in order to evaluate your emotional reflexes, creativity, or attitude while you are under pressure.
