Behavioral & Telephone Interview Tips

Behavioral Interview Questions

Behavioral interview questions will be more pointed, more probing and more specific than traditional interview questions:

1. Give an example of an occasion when you used logic to solve a problem.
2. Give an example of a goal you reached and tell me how you achieved it.
3. Describe a decision you made that was unpopular and how you handled implementing it.
4. Have you gone above and beyond the call of duty? If so, how?
5. What do you do when your schedule is interrupted? Give an example of how you handle it.
6. Have you had to convince a team to work on a project they weren't thrilled about? How did you do it?
7. Have you handled a difficult situation with a co-worker? How?
8. Tell me about how you worked effectively under pressure.
Follow-up questions will also be detailed. You may be asked what you did, what you said, how you reacted or how you felt.
