Good interview questions are not only about getting answers. They test motivation, thinking, and the coherence of the background. To go further, also see job interview preparation and common interview questions.

Keep in mind

  • Group questions by intent rather than by topic.
  • Spot questions that ask for concrete examples.
  • Prepare answers that show judgment.

Questions that test judgment

Other questions aim to understand how you reason, how you make trade-offs, and how you react under pressure.

Next step

Prepare answers to the questions that come up most often.
