Question from a friend who was hired at Microsoft:
Name two specific times where you have failed at your job. How did it happen? What did you do to resolve the issue? What could you do to prevent the problem in the future? |

| An interview is like your road test. Just relax. If they ask you how much you want then you got the job. If salary does not come up then its up in the air but could still be good. Just wait for the next call! |

omg, i hate when they ask that! What i do with my personal life is none of their business, and its not like what ever I do, i will bring to the workplace so it dosent matter to them. |
They probably don't care. This is just another one of those psychological questions. If you can stay calm and answer anything - no matter what it is, then it shows a good impression. On the other hand, if you're disturbed or reply pretty much what you just said, then it shows them that in an unpredictable situation (such as dealings with clients), you might not know how to respond quickly and improvise your own solution. It's the exact same kind of test as the dinner table thing I mentioned earlier. They don't care who you want to have dinner with, as long as you're capable of coming up with an answer in a short ammount of time. As absurd as it sounds, some people can't answer that question at all - and just panic. |

job interviews are piece-of-cake. except the "what are some of your weaknesses?" question.
if you ever apply at a factory-type position, and i'm not saying you will. remember these three things during an interview.
1. safety.
2. quality.
3. production.
4. cost.
in that order. emphasize on teamwork. no matter what, you will get the job. |

| Maybe so, but more often then not, factory type jobs are so horrible that they're desperate for people, and chances are they'll hire you even if you misunderstand half the questions, sneeze in their faces, snot all over the place and yawn while they talk. (hey, I had a flu ok?) ;) |

| The problem with me is alot of the time i'm a perfectionist... is this a bad weakness or a good weakness? I'm pretty sure its a bad weakness. |

literally my interview questions were these:
"When can you start?"
and
"Are you ok with this (A very high number) as a salary?" :p |
