that comes with it. Being under pressure doesn’t discourage me but motivates me more.
If you were hiring a manager for this job, what would you look for?

it. Skills without the right attitude will not contribute to productive output.
Are you willing to make sacrifices for this company?

now, I’m looking for something different. I want to explore new avenues and am more than
willing to take on challenging roles.”
“I feel like it’s time to expand my horizons. I’ve been with my present organization for quite
some time, and while I’m grateful for all that I’ve learned there, I want to go beyond my
current role. And I feel that your company is the perfect place for me to challenge myself and
push my limits.”

I’m up for it. I’ve never felt discouraged by pressure. Rather it motivates me to push myself
and accomplish the task I’m set to do.”

creating a healthy work environment.”

not perfect. There’s always room for improvement and upskilling. I believe this is pivotal to
improving both personally and professionally. One should have the interest to learn and grow.
So, that’s why an 8.”
Suppose you win a lottery now that ensures you are set for life. Would you still work, or
would you quit?
“Sir/Ma’am, if I win a lottery, I will be thrilled. It will mean that now I have hefty savings
ready for me and my family’s future. But not even for once will I think of quitting my job
because I’m a professional. I enjoy my work, and I would like to continue to learn and excel in
my field.”

love learning and exploring new domains in my field, and I cannot give it up for anything. I
aim to retire after having completed a rich and fulfilling career.”

reason of your work. The reason you wish to work is because you want to establish your
identity. Additionally, mention how you want to solve the existing problems with the help of
your skills.
Do you think you are overqualified for this job role?
“No, Sir/Ma’am, I don’t think I am overqualified for this job role, but I think I’m perfectly
qualified for it. I have the right skill set, educational background, and experience for this post,
and I believe I can use them to my advantage at your company, that is, if I’m hired. I feel that
there’s no end to learning. So, yes, I’m well qualified for this post.”
What sets you apart from other candidates?
“I’m sure that this profile has attracted many candidates with impressive profiles. However,
since I’m not familiar with what other candidates have to bring to the table, I’ll not compare

and timelines for work to complete my tasks before the deadline. I also make to-do lists and
make sure to stick to my routines. These little things help me keep my days and weeks
organized.”
“For time management, I believe there’s nothing better than to-do lists and schedules. Once I
have a list of tasks to do, I prioritize the tasks and then schedule them in my weekly/monthly
schedule. I also follow a scheduling system for my meetings so that they never collide. This
helps me to keep things well-planned and organized, both at work and home.”
Would you be willing to lie for the company?
“Sir/Ma’am, my inclination or willingness to lie for the company would depend on the
situation and the outcome. If my lie can bring about a positive result for the company and its
employees, and if the lie isn’t jeopardizing anyone’s position in the company, I can lie.
However, given a choice, I do not feel good about lying.”

employees without bringing any harm whatsoever, I would be okay with lying. But I would
never want to jeopardize or harm anyone through my lie.”

find out that my manager’s viewpoints are what would work for the best for the project and the
company at large, I will gracefully accept it. “
Where do you picture yourself in the next five years?
“In the next 5 years, I would love to leverage all opportunities available to me in this company
for my personal as well as professional growth. I look forward to exploring senior positions at
this company and challenging myself with new tasks every day.”
