“Interview Question”

What Do You Hope to Learn and Contribute in Your Next Role?

This question is a variation of the “impact” question, but it’s more targeted at whether you value learning and development, and the contribution you see yourself making in the role, as opposed to what you hope to personally accomplish. Employers are looking for new hires who are eager to learn and be of service to the company.

How to Answer "What Do You Hope to Learn and Contribute in Your Next Role?" You could say: “I’m always interested in learning new things about our industry, particularly in relation to my own role and self-improvement to help my team. I’m hoping to learn and ultimately master the job, and beyond that, to stay current and keep learning so I can continue to bring value. That way, I can maximize my contribution in my department and eventually, across the company.” #AWU #disability #Interviewquestions

“Interview Question”

What's Your Greatest Weakness?

The best answer to this has changed over time. While the go-to response used to be to choose an area that shows your tendency to "care too much" about your job, this response has been overused. If you try it, you may receive pushback from a savvy interviewer who wants you to share a true weakness.

How to Answer "What's Your Greatest Weakness?" An effective approach is to share something legitimate that isn't your top strength – but also share some concrete ways that you are working on improving in that area. #AWU #disability #Interviewquestions

“Interview Question”

What's Your Greatest Strength?

The challenge of answering the standard "greatest strength" question is that you want to strike the right balance between sounding confident but not arrogant.

How to Answer "What Your Greatest Strength?" The strength that you share need not be related directly to the position that you're applying for, but should be clearly tied to an attribute that the specific employer would value. For example, highlighting your effectiveness working with teams and groups is something that would come in handy in most jobs, so this would be a good choice to share if it's true for you. #AWU #disability #Interviewquestions

“Interview Question”

How Would You Improve Our Product/Service?

The employer wants to know specifics on the previous question and likely wants to gauge how you give constructive feedback.

How to Answer "How Would You Improve Our Product/Service?" It takes a bit of diplomacy to navigate your response here, since you don't want to imply with your answer that the product or service is substandard. By coming up with a good idea here – for example, for an additional feature or other bells and whistles that customers might enjoy – you could earn points with the interviewers for your creativity. #AWU #disability #Interviewquestions

“Interview Question”

Have You Used Our Product/Service?

You don't want to be caught off guard by this question having not tried out the product or service that you would be working with.

How to Answer "Have You Used Our Product/Service?" Knowing that this is a common interview question, you would be wise to give the company's tools a test drive prior to your interview, if at all possible. When trying it out, take notes about your experience and share specifics during your interview. #AWU #disability #Interviewquestions
