A more senior member of the team seemed to take an instant dislike to me from the start, and one day she was particularly unpleasant to me in front of several colleagues.Later on, I was talking to one of those colleagues who was, I thought, attempting to console me. Angry and hurt, I foolishly vented my feelings and told her what I thought of the lady in question. I was naturally shocked to find out that she went on to tell everyone what I had said and this certainly didn't help my relationship with the team member who was causing me problems.Rather than let the situation carry on, I chose to have a quiet word with this lady to find out what her problem was with me and to see if we could put it behind us. It turned out it was nothing personal; she just resented the fact that a friend of hers had also been interviewed for my position and had been turned down. Once we had got matters out into the air, her behavior changed, and we got on quite well after that. However, I certainly learned a lot from experience. I learned that careful communication is vital in managing interpersonal relationships and that if I have a problem with someone, it's always best to talk it over with them rather than with someone else.36) Do you have any reference?This question has just two answers, YES or NO. If you know anyone from that company, say YES, otherwise NO.37) How do you deal with an angry or irritated customer?Possible Answer 1I would try to find out exactly what the problem was, and evaluate if there was something I could do to make it right.Possible Answer 2I would ask the customer to explain his problem and carefully listen to him. After that, I do my best to solve his problem. If that problem is not regarding my work area, I spoke to someone who could help him immediately.38) How do you deal with an angry or irritated customer?Possible Answer 1I would try to find out exactly what the problem was, and evaluate if there was something I could do to make it right.Possible Answer 2I would ask the customer to explain his problem and carefully listen to him. After that, I do my best to solve his problem. If that problem is not regarding my work area, I spoke to someone who could help him immediately.39) What is your greatest fear?Possible Answer 1Before some time, public speaking has been a challenge for me. I was very nervous and hesitate while giving any presentation, so I started taking public speaking seminars to improve it. Now, I still get nervous before pitches, but I have learned how to remain calm and get the job done right. Possible Answer 2As you know that I have never worked in my life and this is my first job, my inexperience is my weakness. But I beg to differ. I am confident and a fast learner. I assure you that I will perform my job without carrying any pre-conceived notions regarding how I feel. 40) Explain the difference between group and team?The difference between group and team are as follows:There is only one difference between the group and the team. That is unity. Any set of people who stand together without any purpose or goal can be called as Group. Whereas, when more than 2 people work towards a common goal, can be called as a Team. For example: If you assign work to a group, then the work will be divided between the members and each member will work out their part, without any coordination with the other members of the group. On the other hand, if you assign a project to a team, they will collectively take the responsibility and work together with the goal to achieve the desired result. In a team, the members will cooperate and coordinate with each other at all times.41) What will you do if you don't get this position?Possible Answer 1I have high hopes that I will be selected. In case if I will not select, I will continue to look for another job in the same field that will fit my schedule and goals. Possible Answer 2 If I don't get this job, I will use this experience to reflect my weakness and try my best to improve on them for the future opportunities along the way.42) What is the success for you?Success refers to the accomplishment of an aim or purpose.43) Would you like to relocate or travel for the company?Firstly, you need to understand the purpose of this question. The fresher candidate does not say YES at once. This will only show your desperation to this job. You can answer like this:Possible Answer 1 I will definitely consider traveling if the opportunity is appropriate, rewarding and feasible. I don't think that I will have any problem with the traveling involved. Possible Answer 2Yes, as part of growing up. I used to travel a lot as my father is an ex-serviceman hence occasionally he used to be posted throughout the country. Though I would prefer my city as it is my birthplace and all my friends and relatives are there, but at the same time, I am ok with relocating.44) What makes you happy?I feel happy when I accomplished my task. I also feel happy when I achieved my goals. Holiday with my family and friends also makes me happy.45) Is there anything which makes you different from other candidates?It is good to start with a disclaimer that you are not aware of the strengths of the other candidate. Also, you sure that some impressive candidates apply for this position.Possible Answer 1Although, I am not familiar with the others whom you are interviewing for this position. I am sure many talented people applying for the job. But because of my background and the problem-solving skills, I considered myself to be a strong candidate for this position.Possible Answer 2I understand that success is not always guaranteed but there is still hope, and I never lose the faith, whether I succeed or not. I think this power makes me stand alone from all other candidates.Possible Answer 3I have exceptional organizational skills. In my last job, I created a project which was termed as quite creative by the clients. I think my technical skills make me stand alone from all other candidates.46) Describe the three things that are most important for you in a job?Possible Answer 1According to me, Honesty, Loyalty, and determination to achieve my team's target are the three important things in a job.Possible Answer 2According to me, Professionalism, growth and a healthy work-life balance are the three important things in a job.47) What are your expectations from the company?Though this answer is objective and can be different for different persons, but you should be positive in your thoughts and do not say many things about the company which gives the interviewer an illusion that you are exaggerating. In short, be realistic and precise.For ExampleI have always wanted to work with an organization which provides a very comfortable and home like work environment. I would like to work in the company where I can get the opportunity to learn and enhance my skill to become a better professional in the future.48) On a scale of one to ten, rate me as an interviewer?Possible Answer 1Sir, I'm not in the position to rate you as an interviewer. Anyway, I'm not going to disappoint you. As an interviewer you've fulfilled your job, So, I can give you 10 out of 10. But I'll give you 9/10 as there should always be a scope to increase our skills which will create an interest in learning the things. Thank you very much for giving me this wonderful opportunity.Possible Answer 2Thank you for giving me such an opportunity, but for sure I am not the person to rate you. As it is obvious that your position is highly reputed and you have been chosen to undergo this process that shows your excellence at this place, but still I have to answer this question so honestly, it would be 9/10 as no one is perfect and we always leave room for improvement.49) Who is your role model? What have you incorporated into your life from him/her?You should think of people who embody the qualities that you most admire.For ExampleThe role model of my life is my mother. Whenever I am down my mother helps me to push my limits, and she always keeps me on the track. She was scolding me whenever I do something wrong. She is everything for me, I still got inspired from her, how she manages every problem in every situation.50) Do you have any questions for me?It's your turn now. If you get such an opportunity, you may ask questions like that:Possible Answer 1Thank you for giving me this opportunity. After my overall performance till now if I got selected what I need to improve and if I'm not selected how can I succeed further. Can you give any advice sir?Possible Answer 2First of all thank you very much, for being so much polite & friendly to me throughout the session, that I can express myself so easily. Can you please tell me that what are the qualities you are expecting from fresher like us & I want to know, if am selected, then what should I improve before I join your company, if I am not selected, your opinion will help me to the upcoming intervi

DPM depends on synchronization to keep imitations synchronized with the ensured information on the document servers.3) What is the virtual memory?Virtual memory is a memory administration capacity of an OS that utilizes equipment and programming to enable a PC to make up for physical memory deficiencies by briefly exchanging information from irregular access memory (RAM) to plate stockpiling.4) What are paging, faulting, and deadlock?In PC working frameworks, paging is a memory administration by which, computer stores and recovers information from secondary storage for use in main memory. In this scheme, the operating system retrieves data from secondary storage in same-size blocks called paging.Faulting: A page fault (now and then called #PF, PF or hard fault) is a sort of special case raised by PC equipment when a running system gets to a memory page that isn't right now mapped by the memory administration unit (MMU) into the virtual address space of a procedure.Deadlock: A deadlock is a situation in which two computer programs sharing the same resource are effectively preventing each other from accessing the resource, resulting in both programs ceasing to function. The earliest computer operating systems ran only one program at a time procedure.5) Evaluate a+=a+ ++a if a=20 initially.a += a+ (++a) is the same as a = a + a + (++a) First thing that happens is that a++ will set a to 21, after that it will calculate: a = a + a + a; 21 + 21 + 21 = 63 so the result is 63.6) What is Process Scheduling?The procedure planning is the action of the procedure director that handles the expulsion of the running procedure from the CPU and the determination of another procedure based on a specific methodology.Process planning is a fundamental piece of Multiprogramming working frameworks. Such working frameworks enable in excess of one procedure to be stacked into the executable memory at once and the stacked procedure shares the CPU utilizing time multiplexing.7) Difference between Quick Sort and Merge Sort.ComparisonQuick SortMerge SortPartition of the element in the array.The splitting of a list of elements is not necessarily divided into half.The Array is always divided into half(n/2)Worst Case ComplexityO(n2)O(n log n)SpeedFaster than another sorting algorithm for the small dataset.Consistent speed in all type of datasets.Additional Storage Space RequirementLessMoreEfficiencyInefficient for the larger array.More efficientSorting MethodInternalExternal8) What is Base Class and Derived Class? How are these two interrelated?Derivation (C++ only) Inheritance is implemented in C++ through the mechanism of derivation. Derivation allows you to derive a class, called a derived class, from another class, called a base class. In the declaration of a derived class, you list the base classes of the derived class.9) What is the advantage of inheritance in OOPS??The most frequent use of inheritance is for deriving classes using existing classes, which provides reusability. The existing classes remain unaltered. By reusability, the development time of software is reduced. The derived classes extend the properties of base classes to generate more dominant objects.10) What is Procedural Programming?Procedural programming is a programming paradigm that uses a linear or top-down approach. It relies on procedures or subroutines to perform computations.Procedural programming is also known as imperative programming.11) What is the Entry Control Loop?A passage control circle checks the condition at the season of the section and if condition or articulation turns out to be genuine at that point control moves into the body of the circle. Such kind of circle controls passage to the circle that is the reason it is called the section control circle.12) What is Variable Scope?A scope is a region of the program and broadly speaking there are three places, where variables can be declared ? Inside a function or a block which is called local variables. In the definition of function parameters which is called formal parameters. Outside of all functions which are called global variables.13) What is Dangling Else problem?Dangling else is a problem happens when we utilize settled if. ... Here in the above case we really need to give the else provision to the external most if condition however it is considered for the deepest if condition .this is called dangling else problem.14) What is the Condition of Deadlock?Deadlock can exist if and only if 4 conditions hold simultaneously:Mutual exclusion: at least one process must be held in a non-sharable mode.Hold and wait: there must be a process holding one resource and waiting for another.No preemption: resources cannot be preempted.Circular wait: there must exist a set of processes[p1, p2, ­, pn] such that p1 is waiting for p2, p2 for p3, and so on­.15) What does Object Oriented Database Management System (OODBMS)?An object-oriented database management system (OODBMS) is a database management system that supports the creation and modeling of data as objects. OODBMS also includes support for classes of objects and the inheritance of class properties and incorporates methods, subclasses, and their objects.Also called an object database management system (ODMS).16) Difference between Structure and Union.The Basis of ComparisonStructureUnionBasicThe isolated memory area is distributed to every individual from the 'structure'.All individuals from the 'association' share a similar memory area.Declarationstruct struct_name { type element1; type element2; . . } variable1, variable2, ...; union u_name{ type element1; type element2; . . } variable1, variable2, ...; Keyword'struct''union'SizeSize of Structure=entirety of the size of the considerable number of information member.Size of Union=Size of the biggest individuals.At a TimeA 'structure' stores numerous qualities, of the diverse individuals, of the 'structure'.An 'association' stores a solitary incentive at any given moment for all individuals.The Way of ViewingProvide a single approach to see every memory locationProvide numerous approach to see the same memory area.Anonymous FeatureNo Anonymous featureAnonymous association can be pronounced.17) What is the purpose of 'SUDO' Command?The reason for sudo is to execute the charge given to it with root benefits. The motivation behind su is to switch the present client setting. It is fundamentally an antecedent to sudo. On the off chance that no client name is determined for su, at that point it changes to root.18) What is the String?In programming, a string is a contiguous sequence of symbols or values, such as character strings (a sequence of characters)or a binary digits string(a string of binary values).19) What is an Array? What is the Importance of an Array?An array is a data structure that contains a group of elements. Regularly, these elements are of the same data type such as integer or string. Arrays are commonly used in the computer program to organized data so that a related set of values can be easily sorted or searched.Importance:1. it is a better and convenient way of storing data of the same data type with the same size.2. It allows users to store a number of elements in it.20) What is the advantage and disadvantage of the stored procedure?Advantage:Maintainability: Since contents are in one area, updates and following of conditions in light of composition changes ends up less demanding.Testing: Can be tried autonomous of the application.Speed: 1. Stored Procedure is cache on the server.2. Execution plans for the process are easily reviewable without having to run the application.Disadvantage:Restricted Coding Functionality: Put away technique code isn't as hearty as application code, especially in the territory of circling (also that iterative builds, similar to cursors, are moderate and processor escalated)Testing: Any information blunders in dealing with Stored Procedures are not produced until runtimeIBM HR Interview questions for Fresher1) Tell me about yourselfMy name is Arjun Kapoor.

B as he is older than C. If the sum of the ages is 50 years. What is the difference between the ages of B and A's?1 year2 years25 yearsData inadequateNone of theseShow AnswerInfosys Technical Interview Questions1) What is polymorphism?Polymorphism is a concept by which we can perform a single action in different ways. Polymorphism is derived from two Greek words: poly and morphs. The word "poly" means many and "morphs" means forms. So polymorphism means many forms.2) Explain the functionality of linked list.A linked list consists of two parts. Information part and the link part. In the single linked list, first node of the list is marked by a unique pointer named as start and this pointer points to the first element of the list, and the link part of each node consists of a pointer pointing to the next node, but the last node of the list has null pointer identifying the last node. The linked list can be traversed easily with the help of Start pointer.3) What is normalization of databases, joins, and keys?Normalization is also known as the process of organizing data in a DBMS efficiently without any loss of data.Advantages of the normalization process are as follows:First is eliminating redundant data and ensuring data dependencies make sense. It reduces the amount of space that the database consumes and ensure that data is logically stored.Join:This clause is used in DBMS to combine rows from two or more tables, based on a related column between them.Keys:Keys are a crucial part of the relational database model. They are used to identify and establish relationships between tables. They are also used to uniquely determine each record or row of data in a table.Key:A Key can be a single attribute or a group of attributes acting as a key.4) What is inheritance?In, object-oriented programming, inheritance is a mechanism based on classes.Inheritance refers to inheriting the data members and properties of a parent class to a child class. A class which is derived from another class is often called as a sub-class, and the class from which the child class is derived is known as super-class or parent class.5) What are the different types of inheritance?Types of Inheritance:Single inheritanceMultiple InheritanceMulti-level InheritanceMulti-path InheritanceHierarchical InheritanceHybrid Inheritance6) Demonstrate the process of inheriting variable of one class to other class?//Base Class  class A   {   public int a;    }  //Derived Class  class B : A  {  a=15;    }  7) What are the loops statements?To execute a block of statement several times in a program depending upon the conditional statement loops are used.The basic structure of a loop is given above in the diagram. For each successful execution of the loop, the conditional statement should be checked. If the conditional statement is true, then the loop will be executed. If the conditional statement is false, then the loop will be terminated.8) Difference between classes and interface?The difference between classes and interface are listed below:The instance of the class can be created by creating its object, whereas interfaces cannot be instantiated as all the methods in the interface are abstract and do not perform any action, There is no need for instantiating an interface.A class is declared using class keyword whereas an interface is declared using interface keyword.The members of the class can have access specifier such as public, protected, and private but members of the interface cannot have the access specifier, all the members of the interface is declared as public because the interface is used to derive another class. There will be no use of access specifies inside the members of an interface.The methods inside the class are defined to perform some actions on the fields declared in the class whereas interface lacks in declaring in fields, the methods in an interface are purely abstract.A class can implement any number of the interface but can only extend one superclass, whereas interface can extend any number of interfaces but cannot implement any interface.A class can have a constructor defined inside the class to declare the fields inside the class, whereas interface doesn't have any constructor defined because there are no fields to be initialized.9) What is software development life-cycle? Also, explain the waterfall model.SDLC is a process followed for developing and enhancing software project. It consists of a detailed plan for developing, maintaining a specific software. The life cycle defines a methodology process for improving the quality of software and the overall development process.In "The Waterfall" model, the whole process of software development is divided into separate phases. In this Waterfall model, typically, the outcome of one phase acts as the input for the next phase sequentially.10) What are the four basic principles of OOPS?The four basic principles of Object-Oriented Programming System are listed below:AbstractionInheritanceEncapsulationPolymorphism.11) What are the conditional statements?The conditional statements can alternatively be called a conditional expression also. Conditional statements are the set of rules which were executed if a particular condition is true. It is often referred to an if-then statement because if the condition is true, then the statement is executed.12) What is Database Management System?A Database Management System is a software system is used for creating and managing databases. DBMS make it possible for the end user to create and maintain databases. DBMS provides an interface between the end user/application and the databases.13) List different advantages of DBMS.Improved data sharing.The list of several advantages of Database Management System:Improved data security.Better data integration.Minimized data inconsistency.Improved data access.Improved decision making.Increased end-user productivity.14) What do you mean by Object-Relational DBMS?The object-relational database (ORD) is a database management system (DBMS) that are composed of both an object-oriented database (OODBMS) and a relational database (RDBMS). ORD supports the essential components of an object-oriented database model in its schemas and the query language used, such as inheritance, classes, and objects.An object-relational database is also known as an object-relational database management systems (ORDBMS).15) What is database Schema?It is a set of formulas (sentences) called integrity constraints imposed on a database.16) What is an IC? What is its importance?IC refers to integrated circuits sets of electronic circuits on single flat piece semiconductor material, and usually, silicon is used. The integration of a large number of tiny transistors into a small chip results in circuits that are smaller in size and faster than those discrete electronic components. The importance of integrated circuits than the separate electronic components is integrated circuits are smaller in size, faster, low costs than discrete electronic components.17) Write a program to check whether the input number is a perfect number or not.#include     int main()Improved data sharing.  {      int number, remainder, sum = 0, i;        printf("Enter a Number\n");      scanf("%d", &number);      for (i = 1; i

What is the most important lesson / skill you've learned from school?Think of lessons learned in extra curricular activities, in clubs, in classes that had a profound impact on your personal development. For example, I had to lead a team of 5 people on a school project and learned to get people with drastically different personalities to work together as a team to achieve our objective.46. What is it about this position At LabCorp that attracts you the most?Use your knowledge of the job description to demonstrate how you are a suitable match for the role.47. How important is a positive attitude to you?Incredibly important. I believe a positive attitude is the foundation of being successful - it's contagious in the workplace, with our customers, and ultimately it's the difference maker.48. Why should we select you not others?Here you need to give strong reasons to your interviewer to select you not others. Sell yourself to your interviewer in interview in every possible best way. You may say like I think I am really qualified for the position. I am a hard worker and a fast learner, and though I may not have all of the qualifications that you need, I know I can learn the job and do it well.”49. If you were an animal, which one would you want to be?Seemingly random personality-test type questions like these come up in interviews generally because hiring managers want to see how you can think on your feet. There's no wrong answer here, but you'll immediately gain bonus points if your answer helps you share your strengths or personality or connect with the hiring manager. Pro tip: Come up with a stalling tactic to buy yourself some thinking time, such as saying, “Now, that is a great question. I think I would have to say… ”50. What is your biggest regret to date and why?Describe honestly the regretful action / situation you were in but then discuss how you proactively fixed / improved it and how that helped you to improve as a person/worker.51. Describe to me the position At LabCorp you're applying for?This is a “homework” question, too, but it also gives some clues as to the perspective the person brings to the table. The best preparation you can do is to read the job description and repeat it to yourself in your own words so that you can do this smoothly at the interview.52. What was the most important task you ever had?There are two common answers to this question that do little to impress recruiters:☛ ‘I got a 2.1'☛ ‘I passed my driving test'No matter how proud you are of these achievements, they don't say anything exciting about you. When you're going for a graduate job, having a degree is hardly going to make you stand out from the crowd and neither is having a driving licence, which is a requirement of many jobs.53. How would you observe the level of motivation of your subordinates?Choosing the right metrics and comparing productivity of everyone on daily basis is a good answer, doesn't matter in which company you apply for a supervisory role.54. Do you have good computer skills?It is becoming increasingly important for medical assistants to be knowledgeable about computers. If you are a long-time computer user with experience with different software applications, mention it. It is also a good idea to mention any other computer skills you have, such as a high typing rate, website creation, and more.55. Where do you see yourself professionally five years from now At LabCorp?Demonstrate both loyalty and ambition in the answer to this question. After sharing your personal ambition, it may be a good time to ask the interviewer if your ambitions match those of the company.Download Interview PDF 56. Give me an example of an emergency situation that you faced. How did you handle it?There was a time when one of my employers faced the quitting of a manager in another country. I was asked to go fill in for him while they found a replacement and stay to train that person. I would be at least 30 days. I quickly accepted because I knew that my department couldn't function without me.57. How have you changed in the last five years?All in a nutshell. But I think I've attained a level of personal comfort in many ways and although I will change even more in the next 5-6 years I'm content with the past 6 and what has come of them.58. Explain an idea that you have had and have then implemented in practice?Often an interview guide will outline the so-called ‘STAR' approach for answering such questions; Structure the answer as a situation, task, action, and result: what the context was, what you needed to achieve, what you did, and what the outcome was as a result of your actions.59. Why should the we hire you as this position At LabCorp?This is the part where you link your skills, experience, education and your personality to the job itself. This is why you need to be utterly familiar with the job description as well as the company culture. Remember though, it's best to back them up with actual examples of say, how you are a good team player.60. What is your desired salary At LabCorp?Bad Answer: Candidates who are unable to answer the question, or give an answer that is far above market. Shows that they have not done research on the market rate, or have unreasonable expectations.Good answer: A number or range that falls within the market rate and matches their level of mastery of skills required to do the job.61. Why do you want to work At LabCorp for this organisation?Being unfamiliar with the organisation will spoil your chances with 75% of interviewers, according to one survey, so take this chance to show you have done your preparation and know the company inside and out. You will now have the chance to demonstrate that you've done your research, so reply mentioning all the positive things you have found out about the organisation and its sector etc. This means you'll have an enjoyable work environment and stability of employment etc – everything that brings out the best in you.62. Explain me about your experience working in this field At LabCorp?I am dedicated, hardworking and great team player for the common goal of the company I work with. I am fast learner and quickly adopt to fast pace and dynamic area. I am well organized, detail oriented and punctual person.63. What would your first 30, 60, or 90 days look like in this role At LabCorp?Start by explaining what you'd need to do to get ramped up. What information would you need? What parts of the company would you need to familiarize yourself with? What other employees would you want to sit down with? Next, choose a couple of areas where you think you can make meaningful contributions right away. (e.g., “I think a great starter project would be diving into your email marketing campaigns and setting up a tracking system for them.”) Sure, if you get the job, you (or your new employer) might decide there's a better starting place, but having an answer prepared will show the interviewer where you can add immediate impact-and that you're excited to get started.64. What do you think is your greatest weakness?Don't say anything that could eliminate you from consideration for the job. For instance, "I'm slow in adapting to change" is not a wise answer, since change is par for the course in most work environments. Avoid calling attention to any weakness that's one of the critical qualities the hiring manager is looking for. And don't try the old "I'm a workaholic," or "I'm a perfectionist.65. Tell me something about your family background?First, always feel proud while discussing about your family background. Just simple share the details with the things that how they influenced you to work in an airline field.66. Are you planning to continue your studies and training At LabCorp?If asked about plans for continued education, companies typically look for applicants to tie independent goals with the aims of the employer. Interviewers consistently want to see motivation to learn and improve. Continuing education shows such desires, especially when potentials display interests in academia potentially benefiting the company.Answering in terms of “I plan on continuing my studies in the technology field,” when offered a question from a technology firm makes sense. Tailor answers about continued studies specific to desired job fields. Show interest in the industry and a desire to work long-term in said industry. Keep answers short and to the point, avoiding diatribes causing candidates to appear insincere.67. Describe a typical work week for this position At LabCorp?Interviewers expect a candidate for employment to discuss what they do while they are working in detail. Before you answer, consider the position At LabCorp you are applying for and how your current or past positions relate to it. The more you can connect your past experience with the job opening, the more successful you will be at answering the questions.68. What type of work environment do you prefer?Ideally one that's similar to the environment of the company you're applying to. Be specific.69. How would you rate your communication and interpersonal skills for this job At LabCorp?These are important for support workers. But they differ from the communication skills of a CEO or a desktop support technician. Communication must be adapted to the special ways and needs of the clients. Workers must be able to not only understand and help their clients, but must project empathy and be a warm, humane presence in their lives.70. Do you have any questions for me?Good interview questions to ask interviewers at the end of the job interview include questions on the company growth or expansion, questions on personal development and training and questions on company values, staff retention and company achievements.Download Interview PDF 71. How would you motivate your team members to produce the best possible results?Trying to create competitive atmosphere, trying to motivate the team as a whole, organizing team building activities, building good relationships amongst people.72. How do you act when you encounter competition?This question is designed to see if you can rise the occasion. You want to discuss how you are the type to battle competition strongly and then you need to cite an example if possible of your past work experience where you were able to do so.73. What would you like to have accomplished by the end of your career?Think of 3 major achievements that you'd like to accomplish in your job when all is said and done - and think BIG. You want to show you expect to be a major contributor at the company. It could be creating a revolutionary new product, it could be implementing a new effective way of marketing, etc.74. What do you think we could do better or differently?This is a common one at startups. Hiring managers want to know that you not only have some background on the company, but that you're able to think critically about it and come to the table with new ideas. So, come with new ideas! What new features would you love to see? How could the company increase conversions? How could customer service be improved? You don't need to have the company's four-year strategy figured out, but do share your thoughts, and more importantly, show how your interests and expertise would lend themselves to the job.75. What features of your previous jobs have you disliked?It's easy to talk about what you liked about your job in an interview, but you need to be careful when responding to questions about the downsides of your last position. When you're asked at a job interview about what you didn't like about your previous job, try not to be too negative. You don't want the interviewer to think that you'll speak negatively about this job or the company should you eventually decide to move on after they have hired you.76. How would your friends describe you?My friends would probably say that I'm extremely persistent – I've never been afraid to keep going back until I get what I want. When I worked as a program developer, recruiting keynote speakers for a major tech conference, I got one rejection after another – this was just the nature of the job. But I really wanted the big players – so I wouldn't take no for an answer. I kept going back to them every time there was a new company on board, or some new value proposition. Eventually, many of them actually said "yes" – the program turned out to be so great that we doubled our attendees from the year before. A lot of people might have given up after the first rejection, but it's just not in my nature. If I know something is possible, I have to keep trying until I get it.77. Do you think you have enough experience At LabCorp?If you do not have the experience they need, you need to show the employer that you have the skills, qualities and knowledge that will make you equal to people with experience but not necessary the skills. It is also good to add how quick you can pick up the routine of a new job role.

HOW TO RESPOND TO BEHAVIORAL INTERVIEW QUESTIONS?
HOW TO RESPOND TO BEHAVIORAL INTERVIEW QUESTIONS?
A large part of what makes job interviews nerve-wracking is that you don’t know what you’re going to be asked. While you can’t know the exact question list before an interview, there are some common types of questions that interviewers often ask that you can prepare to answer, and one of these is behavioral interview questions.We’ll cover how to answer behavioral interview questions and give you some example questions and answers as well as explain what behavioral interview questions are and why interviewers ask them.HOW TO ANSWER BEHAVIORAL JOB INTERVIEW QUESTIONSLike with all interview questions, there is a right and a wrong answer — the issue with behavioral questions is that this answer can be much more difficult to figure out than with traditional interviews.While it is, as we said before, more difficult to game behavioral interview questions than traditional ones, there is still a chance that you can figure out how to answer a question correctly based on the way it’s asked.The interviewer isn’t trying to trick good people into giving “bad answers” — but they are trying to trick people with poor judgment into revealing themselves early on.In this vein, here are some big things to keep in mind if you find yourself in a behavioral job interview:Highlight your skills. Think about the sort of skills you need to demonstrate in order to be successful at the job you hope to do. These skills are typically more general than they are specific — things like leadership skills, the ability to work with a team, brilliant decision-making, the advanced use of an industry technique etc.When you’re constructing your answer, think about how to portray your actions in such a way that shows off those skills.Tell a story. Remember that you’re telling a story and that ultimately, how you tell that story matters most of all. Try to make your story flow as naturally as possible — don’t overload the interviewer with unnecessary details, or alternately, forget too many details for the story to make sense.They need to understand your answer in order to parse out your behavior. They can’t do that if they can’t understand the story you just told them — in addition to which, they might just find that a person who can’t tell a simple story is just too annoying to work with.Use the STAR method. If you’re really having trouble telling your story, remember that good old STAR method:Situation. Start by giving context. Briefly explain the time, place, and relevant characters in your story.Task. Next, tell the interviewer your role in the story, whether it was a task assigned to you or some initiative you took on your own.Action. Now comes the juicy stuff; let the hiring manager know what actions you took in response to the situation and your task. Interviewers are interested in how and why you did something just as much as what you did, so spell out your thought process when possible.This is where you showcase your skills, so try to think of actions that align well with the job you’re applying for.Result. Finally, explain the end result of your actions. Your focus should always be on what value you contributed to the company, not bragging about your personal accomplishments.Note that while the result should always be positive, some behavioral interview questions specifically ask about negative situations. In these cases, finish by discussing what you learned from the experience or how the project could have been improved.EXAMPLE BEHAVIORAL INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERSEssentially, a behavioral interview means being asked a bunch of open-ended questions which all have the built-in expectation that your answer will be in the form of a story.These questions are difficult to answer correctly specifically because the so-called “correct” answers are much more likely to vary compared to traditional interview questions, whose correct answers are typically more obvious and are often implied.Behavioral interviewers are likely to ask more follow-up questions than normal, while giving less of themselves away. They want to hear you talk and react to every opportunity they give you, because the more you talk, the more you reveal about yourself and your work habits.And that’s okay. The takeaway here shouldn’t be that “the hiring manager wants to trick me into talking, so I should say as little as possible.”The real trick with this kind of question is to use the opportunities you’re given to speak very carefully — don’t waste time on details that make you look bad, for example, unless those details are necessary to show how you later improved.In addition to these general techniques interviewers might use on you, here are some common questions you might be asked during a behavioral interview:Q: Tell me about a time when you had to take a leadership role on a team project.A: As a consultant at XYZ Inc., I worked with both the product and marketing teams. When the head of the marketing team suddenly quit, I was asked to step up and manage that deparment while they looked for her replacement. We were in the midst of a big social media campaign, so I quickly called toghether the marketing team and was updated on the specifics of the project.By delegating appropriately and taking over the high-level communications with affiliates, we were able to get the project out on time and under budget. After that, my boss stopped looking for a replacement and asked if I’d like to head the marketing team full time.Q: Can you share an example of a time when you disagreed with a superior?A: In my last role at ABC Corp., my manager wanted to cut costs by outsourcing some of our projects to remote contractors. I understood that it saved money, but some of those projects were client-facing, and we hadn’t developed a robust vetting process to make sure that the contractors’ work was consistent and high-quality. I brought my concerns to him, and he understood why I was worried.He explained that cost-cutting was still important, but was willing to compromise by keeping some important projects in-house. Additionally, he accepted my suggestion of using a system of checks to ensure quality and rapidly remove contractors who weren’t performing as well. Ultimately, costs were cut by over 15% and the quality of those projects didn’t suffer as a result.Q: Tell me about a time when you had to work under pressure.A: My job as lead editor for The Daily Scratch was always fast-paced, but when we upgraded our software and printing hardware nearly simultaneously, the pressure got turned up to 11. I was assigned with training staff on the new software in addition to my normal responsibilities. When we were unable to print over a long weekend while the new printing hardware was being set up, I wrote and recorded a full tutorial that answered the most frequently asked questions I’d been receiving over the previous week.With a staff of 20 writers, this really cut down on the need for one-on-one conversations and tutorials. While management was worried we wouldn’t be able to have the writers working at full capacity the following week, the tutorial was so effective that everyone got right on track without skipping a beat.Q: Can you describe a time when you had to motivate an employee?A: When I was the sales manager at Nice Company, we had a big hiring push that added six sales reps to my team in a matter of weeks. One worker in that bunch was working a sales job for the first time ever, and she had an aversion to cold calls. While her email correspondence had fantastic results, her overall numbers were suffering because she was neglecting her call targets.I sat down with her and explained that she should try to incorporate her winning writing skills into her cold calls. I suggested following her normal process for writing an email to cold calls; research the company and target and craft a message that suits them perfectly. She jumped at the idea and starting writing scripts that day. Within a couple of weeks, she was confidently making cold calls and had above-average numbers across the board.Q: Tell me about a time you made a mistake at work.A: When I landed my first internship, I was eager to stand out by going the extra mile. I was a little too ambitious, though — I took on too many assignments and offered help to too many coworkers to possibly juggle everything. When I was late with at least one task every week, my coworkers were understandably upset with me.After that experience, I created a tracking system that took into account how long each task would realistically take. This method really helped me never make promises I couldn’t keep. After that first month, I never handed in an assignment late again.MORE BEHAVIORAL INTERVIEW QUESTIONSWhat have you done in the past to prevent a situation from becoming too stressful for you or your colleagues to handle?Tell me about a situation in which you have had to adjust to changes over which you had no control. How did you handle it?What steps do you follow to study a problem before making a decision? Why?When have you had to deal with an irate customer? What did you do? How did the situation end up?Have you ever had to “sell” an idea to your co-workers? How did you do it?When have you brought an innovative idea into your team? How was it received?Tell me about a time when you had to make a decision without all the information you needed. How did you handle it?Tell me about a professional goal that you set that you did not reach. How did it make you feel?Give an example of when you had to work with someone who was difficult to get along with. How/why was this person difficult? How did you handle it? How did the relationship progress?Tell me about a project that you planned. How did your organize and schedule the tasks? Tell me about your action plan.WHAT ARE BEHAVIORAL INTERVIEW QUESTIONS?Behavioral interview questions are questions about how you’ve dealt with work situations in the past and seek to understand your character, motivations, and skills. The idea behind behavioral interview questions is that you’ll reveal how you’ll behave in the future based on your actions in the past.Unlike traditional interview questions, a hiring manager or recruiter is looking for concrete examples of various situations you’ve been in at work. As such, the best way to prepare for any and all behavioral interview questions is to have an expansive set of stories ready for your interview.A hiring manager is never going to come right out and tell you — before, during, or after the fact — whether or not your interview with them is traditional or behavioral.That’s because the difference between the two is more related to philosophy than it is necessarily technique.Often, an employer won’t even know themselves that the interview they’re conducting is behavioral rather than traditional — the deciding factors are the questions that they decide to ask, and where the interview’s focus settles on.In a nutshell, traditional interviews are focused on the future, while behavioral interviews are focused on the past.In a traditional interview, you’re asked a series of questions where you’re expected to talk about yourself and your personal qualities.Interviews in this vein tend to ask questions that are sort of psychological traps — oftentimes the facts of your answer matter less than the way you refer to and frame those facts.Moreover, if you find that you’re able to understand the underlying thing an interviewer is trying to learn about you by asking you a certain question, you might even find you’re able to game the system of the traditional interview a little bit by framing your answer in a particular way.Behavioral interviews are harder to game, because instead of asking about how you might deal with a particular situation, they focus on situations you’ve already encountered.In a behavioral interview, you probably won’t find yourself being asked about your strengths. Instead, you’ll be asked about specific problems you encountered, and you’ll have to give detailed answers about how you dealt with that problem, your thought process for coming up with your solution, and the results of implementing that solution
