These kinds of questions are usually framed in the context of actual job situations, inviting candidates to resolve imaginary situations or react to a given situation. Recruiters are looking for is a glimpse into the interviewee’s approach to solving problems and overcoming obstacles.


Check out these examples:

  • "If you were the hiring manager for this position, what skills would you be looking for in a candidate?"

  • "If you were asked to improve customer service across your previous/current company, what steps would you take?"

  • "If you had an opportunity to revise your early career path, what would you do differently?"

  • "If you could have anyone in the industry as a mentor, who would you choose and why?"
