"What kind of person are you in an office environment?"
- Very tricky question and can mean very different things depending on your answer."How would others describe you as a person?"
"How would others desribe you as a [insert whatever you're interviewed for]?"
-That's also very tricky when they are both asked at the same time because you'll most likely give the same answer."Let's say we've been interviewing 10 people already, explain to me why I should filter out those and hire you right away?"
- Very easy. Tell them that you'll be the best. That's not bragging, that's self-confidence. As an employer I love to hear that.Also, if you're doing freelance on the side and you're looking for a full-time position, never EVER let them think that it'll interfere with your job with them. If they ask "So would you spend your lunchbreak working for your freelance client?" Simply say "NO! If I get this, I'll cut off all bonds" They wanna know you'll dedicate your life to them, they don't wanna share you.
"What are you most proud of?"
Great question IMO. I always ask that when I interview people, that way I see what their values are and how they stand in terms of accomplishments and what they consider average / awesome in their job.
