A recipe for interview

June 6, 2017

Read blogs written by Jocelyn. Here is one of blogs called "A recipe for an interview".

Introduction


It is such a great learning experience to understand how interview works. Julia always encourages herself to be a learner. Philippians 4: 6 - 8, do not be anxious on anything, guard your hearts and mind.

It is also a good idea to read very nice article and learn the recipe being an interviewer. Julia recently did some study about "Can mocking make difference?", she continued to study the topic. "Recipe for the interview" is very well written article to explain how to use behaviour questions to sort out the candidates.




Notes taken 


Question #1: You've been doing <X> for a while. About how much of <x> have you personally done?

Question #2: What does it mean to do <X> well?

Question #3: What do you personally do when you do <X>?

Question #4: Have you made any <X> mistakes? Pick one and tell me the story.

Question $5: How did you ultimately deal with the situation?
Question #6: Do you think you could have avoided the mistake?


Bad answer: any of the neutral answers as their primary focus. Coming up with an opinion on the spot rather than having thought about it before.


Bad answer:
Never thought of improving their process as a result of the mistake. Thinking about it for the first time in the interview with you. The
change they come up with doesn't give you confidence it would prevent future mistakes.


Remember: do NOT feed then the answer to this question. Establishing up front what they think matters is critical to assessing answer quality in later questions in the series.
