Tips for HR Interview

Entering the room
Prior to the entering the door, adjust your attire so that it falls well.Before entering enquire by saying, “May I come in sir/madam”.If the door was closed before you entered, make sure you shut the door behind you softly.Face the panel and confidently say ‘Good day sir/madam’.If the members of the interview board want to shake hands, then offer a firm grip first maintaining eye contact and a smile.Seek permission to sit down. If the interviewers are standing, wait for them to sit down first before sitting.

Enthusiasm
The interviewer normally pays more attention if you display an enthusiasm in whatever you say.This enthusiasm come across in the energetic way you put forward your ideas. You should remain cheerful throughout the interview.

Humor
A little humor or wit thrown in the discussion occasionally enables the interviewers to look at the pleasant side of your personality, It means to make a passing comment that, perhaps, makes the interviewer smile.

Eye contact
You must maintain eye contact with the panel, right through the interview. This shows your self-confidence and honesty.Many interviewees while answering, tend to look away. This conveys you are concealing your own anxiety, fear and lack of confidence.Maintaining an eye contact is a difficult process. As the circumstances in an interview are different, the value of eye contact is tremendous in making a personal impact.

Be natural
Many interviewees adopt a stance which is not their natural self.It is amusing for interviewers when a candidate launches into an accent which he or she cannot sustain consistently through the interview or adopt mannerisms that are inconsistent with his/her personality.Interviewers appreciate a natural person rather than an actor.It is best for you to talk in natural manner because then you appear genuine.

So be genuine and donot try to be oversmart or overact.
And all your answers must be in line with the company's requirements at the time of interview. You should show a positive and optimistic attitude.

Important HR Interview Questions P4

How many hours a week do you normally work?
The best answer would be to say that you are a workaholic and you often work nights and weekends.

What’s the most difficult part of being a (job title)?
redefine “difficult” to be “challenging”. Then identify an area most others in your profession find challenging. Describe what you would do to get the best results.

What was the toughest challenge you’ve ever faced?
Be prepared for this. Relate it to the quality which is important to the job.

Have you consider starting your own business?
In any case, Indicate that any desires about running your own show are part of your past, not your present or future.

What are your goals?
Be ready to discuss your goals for each major area of your life: career, personal development and learning, family, physical (health), community service(keep in mind how the interviewer looks like - whether he is religious or not) and spiritual goals.

Sell me this stapler…(this pencil…this clock…or some other object on interviewer’s desk).
List all its features and benefits. If the interviewer keeps resisting and fighting you, then dont fight him. Take the product and thank him for telling upfront that he doesnt want the product as it saved both persons' time. Ask him if he would like any other of your products and again list the best features and benefits of that product if he does.

“The Salary Question” – How much money do you want ?
Let the interviewer do it first. If he thinks you are highly suitable, then your bargaining power will be stronger. Get him to talk about what he's willing to pay before telling what you want.
Decide beforehand what range you would accept. Research the job market and this position for any relevant salary information.
Never lie about what you currently make but do mention what extra benefits and fringes you get which might add as much as 50% to your current salary.

The Opinion Question” – What do you think about Abortion, Politicians, Singur Protests, Bharat Ratna Candidates, etc.
Sometimes, it may be better just to try to divert the area of topics politely so as to give yourself some time to think or just to avoid getting into an area of risk. Just be optimistic and dont show you that you are unwilling to answer these type of questions.

If you won a million dollar lottery, would you still work?
You should try to be involved in your career in some way. Money alone can bring happiness to you. Its the satisfaction which one gets from good and hard work which is important for me.
The lottery would add some flexibility to my work life. Just dont say something which the employer would think to be unreal.

Tell me something negative you’ve heard about our company
Never be negative and just handle it accordingly.

On a scale of one to ten, rate me as an interviewer.
Never be negative and dont give him a numerical rating. Just praise whatever interview style he has been using with you. If he has been tough say "I think you have been thourough and tough and these qualities are very necessary for selecting good candidates"

Important HR Interview Questions P3

I’m concerned that you don’t have as much experience as we’d like in.

Review the areas of your greatest strengths that match up most favorably with the company’s most urgently-felt wants and needs.



How do you feel about working nights and weekends ?

Answer this question in a balanced way and ensure the hr that you will be willing to work a lot of extra hours in the time of need. This is what hr will be testing.



Are you willing to relocate or travel ?

First find out where you may have to relocate and how much travel may be involved. You should say yes mostly and keep your options open until other offers come.



Why have you had so many jobs ?

You should try to minimize your image as job hopper. You can specify the time you spent at previous positions in rounded years. Describe each position as part of an overall pattern of growth and career destination. Dont blame other people.



What do you see as the proper role/mission of:

a good (job title you’re seeking);

a good manager;

an executive in serving the community;

a leading company in our industry;

Think of the most essential ingredients of success for each category above



Looking back, what would you do differently in your life ?

Indicate that you are a happy, fulfilled, optimistic person. Every experience in life is crucial and i would not change anything.



Could you have done better in your last job ?

Dont be negative and say something which is not of major consequence.



Can you work under pressure ?

Absolutely. Explain your experiences and previous achievements when u actually did. And explain "working under pressure" as part of previous job. But say that u dont worry a bit about it.



Why aren’t you earning more money at this stage of your career ?

You like to make money, but other factors are even more important.



Who has inspired you in your life and why?

Choose any leader in history, in business, politics or anyone. Be prepared to tell about how their words, actions, etc. inspired you.



What was the toughest decision you ever had to make?

Have a good example for that. But again, be positive.



What changes would you make if you came on board?

Again, u need to study everything about the company before the interview to answer this question.

Important HR Interview Questions P2

Tell me honestly about the strong points and weak points of your boss (company, management team, etc.)
Never be negative. Stress only the good points
Your interviewer wants to find out how loyal and positive you are.

What good books have you read lately?
A handful of the most recent and influential books in your profession

Tell me about a situation when your work was criticized ?
choose something that in no way is essential to your successful performance.

What are your outside interests ?
Try to gauge how this company’s culture would look upon your favorite outside activities.
Remember that your employer is hiring your for what you can do for him, not your family, yourself or outside organizations, no matter how admirable those activities may be.

How do you feel about reporting to a younger person (minority, woman, etc)?
You greatly admire a company that hires and promotes on merit alone. It would certainly make no difference to you.

On confidential matters
Never reveal anything truly confidential about a present or former employer.
Say, "I wish to respect the rights of those who have trusted me with their most sensitive information".

What would you say to your boss if he’s crazy about an idea, but you think it stinks ?
always choose integrity.

How could you have improved your career progress ?
You take responsibility for where you are and you harbor no regrets.

You’ve been with your firm a long time. Won’t it be hard switching to a new company ?
You must point to the many ways you have grown and adapted to changing conditions. you’ve learned to adapt quickly. To further assure the interviewer, describe the similarities between the new position and your prior one.

May I contact your present employer for a reference ?
you’d like to keep your job search private, but that in time, it will be perfectly okay.

Where could you use some improvement ?
Keep this answer positive. Identify a cutting-edge branch and want to explore more fully over the next six months.

What do you worry about ?
Dont let this word reflect negatively upon you.

Important HR Interview Questions

Tell me about yourself ?
Start with the present and tell why you are well qualified for the position. Remember that the key to all successful interviewing is to match your qualifications to what the interviewer is looking for. In other words you must sell what the buyer is buying. This is the single most important strategy in job hunting.
Do all the homework you can before the hr interview to uncover this person's wants and needs

What are your greatest strengths ? You know that your key strategy is to first uncover your interviewer's greatest wants and needs before you answer questions.

What are your greatest weaknesses ?Disguise a strength as a weakness.

Assure the interviewer that you can think of nothing that would stand in the way of your performing in this position with excellence.

Tell me about something you did – or failed to do – that you now feel a little ashamed of ?
As with faults and weaknesses, never confess a regret.

Why are you leaving (or did you leave) this position ?
(If you have a job presently tell the hr)
If you’re not yet 100% committed to leaving your present post, don’t be afraid to say so.

The "Silent Treatment"
If your interviewer pulls it, keep quiet yourself for a while and then ask, with sincere politeness , “Is there anything else I can fill in on that point?”

Why should I hire you?
If you know the employer’s greatest needs and desires, this question will give you a big leg up over other candidates because you will give him better reasons for hiring you than anyone else is likely to

Aren’t you overqualified for this position?
I also believe that there could be very positive benefits for both of us

Where do you see yourself five years from now?
Reassure your interviewer that you’re looking to make a long-term commitment

Describe your ideal company, location and job.
The only right answer is to describe what this company is offering, being sure to make your answer believable with specific reasons

Why do you want to work at our company?
Do in-depth research before any interview.

What are your career options right now?
If you are still working, though you’re greatly appreciated there, you’re looking for something more (challenge, money, responsibility)

Why have you been out of work so long ?
