What will they ask me?<br />
The following questions are often asked at interviews. Try to think how<br />
you would answer them:<br />
“Tell me about yourself”<br />
Don’t give them your life history! Pick out information that is relevant to<br />
work <strong>and</strong> this job.<br />
“Why have you applied for this job/course/apprenticeship?”<br />
Link your interests <strong>and</strong> skills to the vacancy details.<br />
Be enthusiastic.<br />
“What is your best school subject?”<br />
“When can you start?”<br />
“What do you know about us?”<br />
See if the company has a website before you go.<br />
“Have you anything to ask me?”<br />
Any questions should be positive <strong>and</strong> show you are really interested in the<br />
job; for example, you could ask for more information about the training<br />
you will have to do.<br />
If you feel the interviewer has covered everything, say so politely “No, I<br />
think you have covered everything - but when will you let me know if I’ve<br />
been successful, please?”<br />
