In a recently published New York Times article How to Answer Common Difficult Interview Questions, author Bryan Clark outlines common questions employers pose to interviewees. Several, admittedly, are antiquated. But as old hat as they are, the questions can stump interviewees time and time again.

The Career Center can help you prepare with mock interviews, so you are never caught off-guard by one of these:

  • Tell me about yourself.
  • Where do you see yourself in five years?
  • What is your greatest weakness?
  • Do you have any questions for me?

The article interviews two experts who give advice on how to interpret these queries and then frame responses. But give yourself an edge. Read the article and then set up a personal, virtual appointment with someone in the Career Center so your answers are uniquely tailored just to you.
