Every interview has a unique focus, but some questions are asked so often, it makes sense to do all you can to prepare for them. In order to be successful, you need a strategy -- not scripted answers. Your goal should be to emphasize your past experiences that best fit what each interviewer is looking for.\n\n\nTell me about a time when you faced a major obstacle at work.\n\nIntent: Similar to the proudest achievement question, this is a behavioral interview question focused on an event. In this case, the interviewer is interested in your ability to overcome a major hurdle.\n\nContext: Pick an example that illustrates a significant obstacle that best demonstrates how you work and that had a positive, tangible outcome. Obstacles might include business problems, a difficult objective, key people who stood in your way or lack of resources. Once you have your example, explain the steps you took.\n\nResponse: You could include the analysis you performed and the resulting strategy, the process you took, the key actions performed, your arguments or anything else that clearly demonstrates how you achieved your goal. A great response technique for this kind of question is to break your answer down into phases or steps: "First, I... Second...."\n\nHow do you deal with conflict?\n\nIntent: Conflict is part of any workplace, and the reality is that you often can't get ahead or perform well in your job unless you can deal with conflict at a basic level. Do you avoid conflict or face it? Do you think it through, or are you emotional? Do you use constructive techniques to resolve the situation?\n\nContext: There are different forms of conflict of course: the everyday interpersonal sort, disagreements in direction or strategy, and conflict over resources. You should describe how you handle conflict at an appropriate level. If you are a manager or executive, for example, pick a reflective example.\n\nResponse: Consider offering a specific example to demonstrate how you resolve conflict.\n\nTell me about yourself.\n\nIntent: Such an innocent-sounding question, but it is a bit of a trap. The interviewer wants to see how you present yourself, but this is not an offer to recite your resume.\n\nContext: This question, which when asked always occurs at the beginning of the interview, is a predictable opportunity to craft an engaging, intriguing executive summary of who you are professionally and why you are there. While there is no hard-and-fast rule as to how long it should be, let's say it should last up to a minute. If you are given this opportunity, turn it to your advantage to establish momentum.\n\nResponse: The stronger the connection you can make between your background, knowledge and interests, and the job at hand, the more compelling you will be as a candidate. If there is something notable about your personal life that adds to your candidacy or helps explain your career trajectory, add it. Otherwise, leave personal details out at this stage unless invited to do so.\n\nHow would you describe your work style? \n\nIntent: This is a fairly open-ended question. At a basic level, the interviewer is interested in hearing how you both understand and articulate how you work. However, there may be a requirement for someone highly organized, or the team may have a specific way of working, and the interviewer wants to see if you fit.\n\nContext: You may not have thought about this too carefully before. How do you best operate? What's the optimum work situation for you? There are two sides to this: how you work and in what kinds of work environments do you work best. Are you highly structured? Do you focus on one thing and get it done, or move multiple projects forward concurrently? On the environment side, do you do best in fairly structured workplaces, or do you thrive in chaos?\n\nResponse: Like any other answer, being specific and backing up your answer with a brief example works best. You could use the past week as an illust

Four times now. One dud. He was too loud and drove me crazy. One great guy who couldn't pay his rent on time, ever. One decent guy who was pretty good, but didn't stick around for too long. And...The Greatest Roommate in the World. That's right. Quiet, courteous, respectful, clean, and I found him on craigslist. And this is in Brooklyn.\n\nThe truth is that a lengthy interview process just isn't realistic. You have to trust your gut. If I feel like I have to call your references, it's already a "no."

I have read books and watched videos on that stuff.  All the info you can get on that kinda stuff is great but u gotta keep up because interviewers' don't stay with the old expectations over time much these days.  If I knew you better I could freely tell you more directly over the phone or some such, based on your expectations as to what you should do.  Mainly my big advice on this is to think it through and don't build it up in your head to be such a big deal.  Interveiwers in most cases will on face value of things will rule out the insecure applicant straight away.

Tremendous.  I have been in the field.  You have to be willing to be flexible.  There may (will) be lots of job changes.

A number of years ago I applied for a job there. I found the questions on their application too intrusive. One of them was something like "if you knew that another employee was using drugs would you report him?" I think that's a lousy thing to ask someone. After I applied a manager called me and said, "can you be here for an interview in one hour. I said no but I could come later or tomorrow. He never called back, thank god.

Everything I've heard about NMMI is very good. I would suggest you go, if you are being given the opportunity. Keep you eyes on your long-term goals, and study hard!

I just recently had a similar situation happen to me.  I went through a tough interview process of THREE interviews-2 were panel interviews and 1 with the Executive Director and my biggest advice to you is really study the material they give you and think up  some questions they may ask if they call you for another interview, which sounds likely.  During my first panel interview, I had a number of board members firng off tough questions but lucky I had studied the material given to me on the first interview and could answer appropriately,  I was also asked information that I gleaned off the web site so if you can, do a little research as it really pays off.  I was offered the job last week and start on Thursday.  I wish you much luck and hope all goes well for you!\n\nOops, to answer the question, my quess is you are a strong candidate but may have another interview hurdle to pass.  Companies are far more ambiguous about the hiring process and it takes longer than it did even a few years ago which is really hard on the candidates.

My first thought is that they are jerking you around.  But, having to deal with interviews myself, I realize people don't have time to waste on such things.  They must be interested.  You are right on the brink of getting in, but there could be something on their side that does not allow an immediate hire.  Keep your patience.  Continue to show eagerness.  It should work out.  If nothing else, it is good practice for the next time.

I'm a mechanical engineer and though I don't have trouble handling the equipement I rarely have to.  And if something is too hard I can get a tech to do it for me.\n\nClasses tend to be more hands on then the real world.  They want you to understand what your telling others to work with.\n\nFor example I took welding but I have never actually welded at any job I've had. Even if I wanted to they require the ceritifed guys do the welding.

I imagine they are as hard as getting the life, health and insurance license. I didn't take any classes for that, but I do know that if you don't pass the test the first time for the series 7 or 63, when you reschedule the next test, the next test will not be the same as the original test you took. No matter what, they are not easy and are not meant to be easy.
