I can't believe I said that. I blew it!


What if you just bombed an interview? You've got to bounce back from that bombed interview. Don't let the fact that you blew it in an interview stop you from acing the next one. The consequence of not giving the right answer could be disastrous especially when you were interviewing for a job you really wanted . But don't sweat it we have prepared some simple tips on how you can ace the next one. Here are a few job interview questions and answers of some of the most commonly asked interview questions so that you can prepare.

Why are you the best person for the job? With this question it is best to match your strengths and accomplishments directly to the requirements and duties of the job you are applying for.

Why are you leaving your job? Obviously, no one would be thinking about leaving a job that they are contented and comfortable with. Nevertheless, you do not have to confess all you shortcomings to the interviewer.

Now you know you are doing good if they ask you, “how would you react if I told you that your interview has been horrible so far?” Stop for a moment and really think how you want to react. Then think about the question again because the most important word in the question is “if”'. The real answer to this question is your response to it. They want to see how you react under stress. They are trying to throw you off balance so don't let it happen.

Job interviews are going to be stressful even for job seekers who have gone on many of them. So don't sweat it just take time to review some "standard" interview questions. This will help you be more prepared so you won't be so nervous and increase your confidence level. Also, when you are being asked the questions take time to think them through and if you absolutely don't know the answer just say so.
