May is Rotary's Youth Service Month, so we have a few tips for anyone wishing to join the Mock Job Interviewers.

 

Our Mock Job Interviews at Auburn High School have been a great success: the school and the Youth Committee are committed to continuing the program.

The Interviews can be a challenge for the student, and also for anyone unaccustomed to interviewing.  

For interviewers new to the program, we include some popular interview questions an employer is liable to ask: 

  1. Tell me about yourself.
  2. How would you describe yourself?
  3. What makes you unique?
  4. Why do you want to work here?
  5. What interests you about this role?
  6. What motivates you?
  7. What are you passionate about?
  8. Why are you leaving your current job?
  9. What are your greatest strengths?
  10. What are your greatest weaknesses?
  11. What are your goals for the future?
  12. Where do you see yourself in five years?
  13. Can you tell me about a difficult work situation and how you overcame it?
  14. What is your salary range expectation?
  15. Why should we hire you?
  16. Do you have any questions?

Every candidate is different, and their answers may vary. By asking these common interview questions, you can develop compelling talking points to allow the candidate to make a great impression.
