Common Interview Questions asked by Interviewer/DON ( Here are some )

"Tell me about yourself. What is not shown on your resume?"

Just talk for 2 minutes. Be logical. The interviewer is looking for communication skills, linear thinking. Provide insight into your management philosophy or personal mission statement.

"Why are you leaving your current position?"

There is nothing wrong with being open to an opportunity that enhances your career. This is a very critical question. Don't "bad mouth" your previous employer. If you are coming out of an organization known to have major problems, or in midst of a buy-out, down-sizing or re-engineering, this may be an easy question to answer. It is also good to state that after long personal consideration your chance to make a contribution is very low due to changes in the company. If you were not looking for a change when contacted by the recruiter to this interview, say so. There is nothing wrong with being open to an opportunity that advances your career.

"What do you consider your most significant accomplishments?"

Answers to this question can get you the job so prepare extensively. You may want to frame your answer into a two minute story, with details and discuss personal involvement. Describe how things were when you arrived, what you did to make the change and the measurable results. Discuss accomplishments that were worth achieving. Discuss hard work, long hours, pressure and any important issues at stake.
