Compared to Behavioral Questions that deal with your
situation-handling in a past scenario, Traditional or General Interview Questions tend to be more hypothetical. They can be asked in any interview and they don’t specifically cater to any particular job responsibility.
It is always advisable to memorize a few keywords on the company’s needs, problems, or goals. Make sure you visit the company’s website before the interview to uncover the needs of this specific job profile, instead of the generalized needs of the industry.
Sample General Interview Questions
Q1 − Tell me about yourself.
Q2 − What are your greatest strengths?
Q3 − What are your greatest weaknesses?
Q4 − Tell me about an incident you are ashamed of speaking about
Q5 − Why did you leave (or plan to leave) your present employer?
Q6 − The Silent Treatment
Q7 − Why should I hire you?
Q8 − Where do you see yourself five years from now?
Q9 − Why do you want to work at our company?
Q10 − Would you lie for the company?
Q11 − Questions on confidential matters.
