Frequently Asked Questions During Interviews
To some people' Interviews are considered to be one of the scariest things to do most especially to those people who have less confidence and think of themselves as an uncommunicative type of a person.

Basically' it is done orally either face to face or virtually (due to pandemic). You can surely meet a member or members of Senior Management' or the HR manager. It depends on their availability in a specific company. This must be the prerequisite for you to be able to enter a specific position for a job.
But' for you to prepare I'll give some common questions that they will ask you during the interview.
-What's your name? Tell me about yourself. You have to be clear' brief and concise in telling them first your name and then your career story that will show off relevant pieces of experiences. Also' you have to highlight impressive achievements and accomplishments. Thereafter' conclude your answer with explaining your current situation. Avoid sharing too much personal information because it's risky instead they are looking for professional experiences of yours.
-Why should we hire you? Assess yourself first and then be prepare in stating those real experiences/skills of yours which certainly help the company improve and develop. You can highlight the well-suited skills of yours to deal with a certain job position.
-What sets you apart from other candidates? Prior to your interview' think of a quality of yours which somehow sounds unique but specific. For example' in my own experience I used acronyms to present my thoughts since most of them are stating in straight and plain answers. I twisted it using an acronym which stands for my abilities and personality. You can consider your past experiences' degrees and certifications as well.
-Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Primarily if you're seeking for a job' it is a long-term status.

Also' you are one of the skilled workers for the development of the company. Thus' make a goal beforehand.
-What salary are you hoping to earn? According to some employees' it is advisable to suggest a range instead of a single amount. Your minimum number should still be an amount you're comfortable with. However' it is a good idea to emphasize that you are open to negotiations to prevent a situation where you are possibly eliminated because your salary expectations are too high for their budget. You can say' "I am sure when the time comes' we can agree on a reasonable amount" By that it doesn't sound demanding on their part.
Those are some common questions' but in the real interview process just be yourself. Be true to your words because they can tell whether you're lying or not in answering a particular question.
You don't need to be afraid instead comfort yourself because this is part of the so-called 'growing up'
