Job Interview Questions: Problem Solving
Look at the following questions which a recruiter might ask you in a job interview to test your "problem solving skills".
* Tell me about the most perplexing problem you have faced in the last year.
* Describe a situation in which your manager was not available and a problem arose that needed immediate attention. How did you handle it?
* What is your typical way of dealing with conflict? Give me an example.
* We can sometimes identify a small problem and fix it before it becomes a big problem. Give me an example of when you have done this.
* Tell me about a time when you came up with a solution to a problem that others had not been able to solve for quite a while.
* Give me an example of a business problem you solved on your own, and one you solved with a group. How did your process differ?
* What kinds of problems do you deal with in your current job? How do you address them? Share some examples.
* In your last job, what problems did you identify that had previously been overlooked? What did you do about them?
