The interviewer asked: What are your shortcomings and strengths?

First, tell me your biggest shortcoming?

This question is very likely to be asked by companies. It is generally not recommended to answer directly what the disadvantages are. If a job applicant says that he is "narrow-minded", "very lazy", "jealous", "has a bad temper", etc., the company will definitely not hire you. But don’t be smart enough to answer “My biggest shortcoming is that I pursue perfection too much.” Such an answer will actually put you in danger.

Companies like job seekers to start with their own strengths, add some minor shortcomings in the middle, and finally turn the question back to the strengths. Businesses love smart candidates. Second point, have you ever had a dispute with others? How did you solve it?

This is the most sinister question in the interview. It is actually a trap set by the examiner. Never say anyone’s fault. You should know that successfully resolving conflicts is an essential ability for members of a collaborative team. When you work in a service industry, this question simply becomes the most important aspect. In the absence of outside interference, resolving conflicts through compromise is a better answer. The third point is, what is your career plan in five years?

This is a question that almost everyone will be asked. Answering "don't know" will definitely cost you a good opportunity. The most common answers are "I hope to develop according to the company's management ideas" and "I am ready to make a difference in the technical field."

Examiners always like candidates who are motivated. The most common answer was “managers”. Many companies have established dedicated technology pathways. These jobs are often called "senior engineer", "consultant", etc. Of course, you can also mention other positions that interest you, such as "Product Sales Manager" or "Production Manager."
