At the time of answering this question, you should choose a story containing not too many
mistakes. It should be real.

Talk about the mistake, but it is also important to convince the interviewer that you never make the
same mistake again.

For example:


I think the worst mistake I ever made at work was in my first ever job - five years ago now. A
more senior member of the team seemed to take an instant dislike to me from the start, and
one day she was particularly unpleasant to me in front of several colleagues.

Later on, I was talking to one of those colleagues who was, I thought, attempting to console me.
Angry and hurt, I foolishly vented my feelings and told her what I thought of the lady in
question. I was naturally shocked to find out that she went on to tell everyone what I had said
and this certainly didn't help my relationship with the team member who was causing me
problems.

Rather than let the situation carry on, I chose to have a quiet word with this lady to find out
what her problem was with me and to see if we could put it behind us. It turned out it was
nothing personal; she just resented the fact that a friend of hers had also been interviewed for
my position and had been turned down. Once we had got matters out into the air, her behavior
changed, and we got on quite well after that. However, I certainly learned a lot from experience.
I learned that careful communication is vital in managing interpersonal relationships and that if
I have a problem with someone, it's always best to talk it over with them rather than with
someone else.


36) Do you have any reference?

This question has just two answers, YES or NO. If you know anyone from that company, say YES,
otherwise NO.

37) How do you deal with an angry or irritated customer?

Possible Answer 1
⇧ SCROLL TO TOP
“ I would try to find out exactly what the problem was, and evaluate if there was something I
could do to make it right.

Possible Answer 2

“ I would ask the customer to explain his problem and carefully listen to him. After that, I do
my best to solve his problem. If that problem is not regarding my work area, I spoke to
someone who could help him immediately.

38) How do you deal with an angry or irritated customer?

Possible Answer 1

“ I would try to find out exactly what the problem was, and evaluate if there was something I
could do to make it right.

Possible Answer 2

“ I would ask the customer to explain his problem and carefully listen to him. After that, I do
my best to solve his problem. If that problem is not regarding my work area, I spoke to
someone who could help him immediately.

39) What is your greatest fear?

Possible Answer 1

“ Before some time, public speaking has been a challenge for me. I was very nervous and
hesitate while giving any presentation, so I started taking public speaking seminars to improve
it. Now, I still get nervous before pitches, but I have learned how to remain calm and get the job
done right.

⇧ SCROLL TO TOP ”
Possible Answer 2

“ As you know that I have never worked in my life and this is my first job, my inexperience is
my weakness. But I beg to differ. I am confident and a fast learner. I assure you that I will
perform my job without carrying any pre-conceived notions regarding how I feel.

40) Explain the difference between group and team?

The difference between group and team are as follows:

“ There is only one difference between the group and the team. That is unity. Any set of
people who stand together without any purpose or goal can be called as Group. Whereas, when
more than 2 people work towards a common goal, can be called as a Team. For example: If you
assign work to a group, then the work will be divided between the members and each member
will work out their part, without any coordination with the other members of the group. On the
other hand, if you assign a project to a team, they will collectively take the responsibility and
work together with the goal to achieve the desired result. In a team, the members will cooperate


and coordinate with each other at all times.

41) What will you do if you don't get this position?

Possible Answer 1

“ I have high hopes that I will be selected. In case if I will not select, I will continue to look
for another job in the same field that will fit my schedule and goals.

Possible Answer 2

“ If I don't get this job, I will use this experience to reflect my weakness and try my best to
improve on them for the future opportunities along the way.

at once. This will only show your desperation to this job. You can answer like this:

Possible Answer 1

“ I will definitely consider traveling if the opportunity is appropriate, rewarding and


feasible. I don't think that I will have any problem with the traveling involved.

Possible Answer 2

“ Yes, as part of growing up. I used to travel a lot as my father is an ex-serviceman hence
occasionally he used to be posted throughout the country. Though I would prefer my city as it is
my birthplace and all my friends and relatives are there, but at the same time, I am ok with


relocating.

44) What makes you happy?
