THE TOUGHEST QUESTIONS
Give direct, honest answers. Take your time.
Develop the answer in your head before you respond. If you don’t understand a question, ask for it to be repeated or clarified. You don’t have to rush, but don’t be indecisive. Be prepared. Answering difficult questions that may reflect negatively on you can be answered by using the “sandwich model.” This model has a positive statement followed by admitting the negative situation, and ending with another positive statement about what you’ve done to overcome the problem. Ending with a positive statement leaves a positive impression. Anticipate tough questions and practice interviewing beforehand.
