How did you handle it. Give me an example of an important goal you set in the past and your success in reaching it. Tell me of a situation where you used your written communication skills to get an important point across. These are often difficult questions to answer on the spot. Jot down examples of situations in your past that you would use to answer these questions.
Careful preparation is the key to an effective behavioral interview.
After the Interview Unless you are the last person interviewed, the impression you make will fade with each subsequent interview the interviewer undertakes. Write a follow-up letter to keep you fresh on the interviewer s mind. This letter also shows that you are appreciative, organized, and interested. Make sure to express your appreciation of the interviewer s time and comments. Make it clear that you are excited about the job, can do it, and want it.
