Top 50 Most Common Interview Questions

Top Questions Asked in an Interview

​While many people opt for interview coaching services to practice their interview skills, others prefer to prepare on their own. Here is a list of the 50 Most Common Interview Questions which serve as a foundation for many other interview inquiries. It's important to know how to sell yourself in an interview.

When crafting your responses, always consider how you can highlight your Key Selling Points.  It's also beneficial to come prepared with innovative ideas about how you would contribute to the role if hired, as this can impress employers. Make sure you are also familiar with the STAR method interview questions.
 
During the interview, remember to exercise tact and discretion. One tricky question that may arise is, "What other companies are you considering?" It's important to be honest without divulging too much or implying a preference for another job. Similarly, questions like "Why did you leave your last job?" and "What would you do differently if you were in charge of this company?" require diplomacy and minimal negativity.
 
Keep in mind that your interviewer's questions may not always extract the specific information they seek. Ultimately, it's your responsibility as the interviewee to provide sufficient details about your background and experiences to answer the crucial question: "Why should we hire you?"
