Interview Guide for Clients

2. Situational interviews

This interview format resembles behaviourial interviews. The difference is that situational interview has the objective to exemplify your analytical and problem-solving skills, instead of just giving examples of previous behaviour. Basically, the interview questions revolve around assessments and decision-making skills:

What would you do if the work of a subordinate or team member was not up to expectations?
What would you do if the priorities on a project you were working on changed suddenly?
List the steps that you would take to make an important decision on the job.
You disagree with the way your supervisor says to handle a problem. What would you do?
What would a good manager do to build team spirit?
You have been placed in charge of a project team for a new project. What are your first steps to get the team going and complete the project
