I've got a big time interview tomorrow that I'm nervous about. I went to the career services center here at tech and found it really helpful but I want to get some more practice and get a better idea of what to expect.
So what questions have you all been presented with in interviews? -------------------- Little monkeys making money
Naked monkey looking funny Mighty males are strong and free Female monkey, not so lucky Rocking monkeys, funky monkeys Monkeys sticking other monkeys Monkeys wrong or monkeys right Mostly flexing monkey might |

"How would you handle 'x scenario' under no time constraint?"
"How would you handle 'x scenario' under a limited amount of time?" "What do you consider your 3 best qualities?" "What do you consider your 3 worst qualities?" "What past life experience(s) have better prepared to meet the challenges of the professional world?" "What do you value most from your employer?" -------------------- |

most of my interviews have been behavioral based where they ask you a question like "tell me about a time when _________ and how did you _________"

the only job interview I've ever done bad in was when I interviewed for Chevron, and they had this gay ass "S T A R" format you were supposed to answer their questions in, which meant "Situation, blah blah blah, Response"
It's just like ... ask me a fucking question, I'll give you a fucking answer, if you like enough of them hire me, if not oh well. It was gay. What type of company are you interviewing with? If it's a regular company they'll ask you regular questions. If you're interviewing for Google, you're going to have to explain how to mathematically solve a Rubix cube verbally. -------------------- I r Ur Gawd!
