Types of Questions
Open questions-" Tell us a little about…….." | Keep in mind the selection criteria and your strengths. |
Closed questions - Asked when the interviewer wants specific information, often factual or technical in nature, these questions can frequently be answered with a “yes” or “no” | Ask for clarification and elaboration of past experiences. |
Hypothetical questions-What would you do if… | These will assess your ability to think on your feet. |
Leading questions- The answer seems logical… | As a grower representative you will require good communication skills - do you have good skills in this area? Do not give a yes/no answer. Give examples to support your response. |
Multi-barrelled - two or more questions linked to the same topic | Don't be afraid to ask to have the question repeated if you can't recall the full question. |
Behavioural questions - uses your past experiences to predict future behaviours | Prepare examples of how your experiences have allowed you to develop specific skills and how these could benefit the employer. STAR: Situation, Tasks, Action, Result |
