Sample Job Interview Questions: In what areas do you feel you need additional experience?
Interview Answer Tip: If you mention an area that is essential for proper performance of the job for which you are applying, you could be in trouble. Talk about a few courses that you have considered enrolling in that would enhance your overall professional experience. Look in catalogs from continuing education companies for courses you would like to take, or night classes at your local universities. If you have taken a class, the next class in the series should have relevant subjects for you to discuss with the interviewer.
Job Interviewing: Have your ever done this type of work before?
Interview Answer: Never say “No”. No two jobs are exactly alike. What the interviewer wants to know is whether you can learn the job in a reasonable time. Tell him about your past experience, your education, and training related to the job, non-paid experience related to the job, and how quickly you have learned that type of the work in the past.
