10 Most Common HR Interview Questions With Answers
In order to shortlist candidates, the hiring manager will ask you a set of common HR interview questions to get a better understanding of your skills, abilities and interest. So, to help you move your job application to the next round of the hiring process, we have put together a list of Hr interview questions and answers.
Q1: Tell us a little about yourself
This will most likely be the first interview question that the recruiter might ask you. It won’t be wrong to say that this is one of the most important and popular interview questions.
Moreover, this question acts as an ice breaker and will help the recruiter to get an overview of your skills, abilities and accomplishments. So, in your answer, you have to walk the recruiter briefly through your profiles, mentioning educational qualifications, strengths, accomplishments and skills.
Q2: What do you think are your biggest strengths?
Take a deep breath before you start mentioning all your strengths and why you are the perfect candidate for the job role. The recruiter already knows you fit the role but wants to see how you will answer this question.
Usually, when answering this interview question, candidates make the mistake of answering it too arrogantly or too humbly. Both are the wrong ways to answer this question. You should choose your strengths that are relevant to the job role.
Q3: What salary are you expecting?
Go through job portals or search on LinkedIn to find the salary prevailing in the job market. Make sure you have done your research before putting in any number in front of the recruiter.
If you don’t have any idea about the salary, then you should wait for the recruiter to put-in a number. This will help you start your salary negotiation. However, don’t make the mistake of asking for any sum of money as that might says red flags for the recruiter. So, make sure you answer this question smartly and honestly.
Q4: Are you comfortable working from home?
Due to the pandemic, you will likely be asked to work from home. However, working from home isn’t as simple as it sounds. The recruiter wants to make sure that you can comfortably and effectively work from home.
The best way to assure the recruiter that you are comfortable working from home is by conducting a seamless virtual interview without any technical glitch or issues from your side. This will give the hiring manager the assurance that they are looking for.
Q5: Can you commute to the office?
As the country opens up amid the global pandemic, companies are also opening up their office with proper safety measure put at place. If you have applied to a company which is working from the office, then the recruiter will definitely ask you this question.
So, if you are okay with commuting to the office, then convey the same to the hiring manager. However, if you are not, then you should let the recruiter know about this issue. The recruiter might let you work from home until the public transportation opens.
Q6: What are your future plans?
The recruiter wants to know how long you are going to stick to their company and what are some of your future plans. Moreover, showing the recruiter that you have a gameplan will showcase you as a serious and dedicated candidate.
If you don’t have any set plan for your future, then you can always mention going for masters or post-graduate diploma. Mentioning further education will show the recruiter that you want to continue your learning while helping you smartly skill this interview question
Q7: Can you tell 3 weakness of yours?
It isn’t easy to talk about your weakness, especially during a job interview. So, to prevent yourself from fumbling in front of the recruiter, make sure you have at least 3 weaknesses on your fingertips.
Any weakness that you mention should be followed by how you are planning or working towards overcoming it. Moreover, it should be relevant to the job role. Don’t make the mistake of mentioning your strengths as weaknesses because the recruiter will know.
Q8: Why do you think you are the ideal candidate for the job role?
This is one of the trickiest interview questions. So, make sure you have gone through the job description and knows some of the top skills that the recruiter is looking for.
In your answer try to match your skills with the job profiles and further highlight your abilities with real-life examples, where you used your skills to overcome an issue.
Q9: What do you know about the company?
In order to crack any job interview, you need to do your homework of gathering information and useful insight into the company and its policies.
So, in your answer, you need to show the recruiter that you are serious about this job role and did your homework about the company and the job profile. If the company deals in goods and services, then you can drop a few names of their products or give some positive feedback as a consumer.
Q10: Do you have any questions for us?
The right answer to this question is YES. The recruiter wants you to show interest in the job interview. So, make sure you prepare some thoughtful interview questions to ask the recruiter.
You can always ask the recruiter about the safety measures put in place for the employees or other questions related to COVID-19. However, make sure you have some interview questions ready.
Conclusion
Use these tips to customise your interview answers and show the recruiter that you are ready to start your career with a bang. Moreover, try to give mock interviews at home to practice your interviewing skills and improve the areas where you lack.
