1. Why should we hire you?
- In addition to the competancies required to do the job, I assure you that anytime in future if you look back, you would not regret the decision of hiring me for this position.
2. What made you feel that our company is the best for your employment while there are so many MNC's that pays huge salaries???
- The reason I am here is because I feel I have the prfect mix of role and compensation. For me the satisfaction of doing my job is more important than anything else and not the company name. Whilst I may get huge salaries I might not get the role like this.
3. If you want to quit your current company just for the sake of better oppurtunities then what is the guarentee that we will provide you such oppurtunities?
- Job is like marriage - you get something and you give something. The employer provides opportunities to grow in the organisation and the employee taps those opportunities with his or her work and grows. If there is gurantee from your end that there would be ample such opportunities provided to me for growth, then I surely gurantee you that my work would never let you down.
4. What difference will you show apart from the routine job that everyone does if we hire you?
(depends upon the job you apply for)
5. I like people who are very frank. Ok now tell me what do you feel about me after leaving our office premises.
- The best way to deal with it is to follow 80:20 ratio logic. Give 80% positives and 20% improvement areas - be carefull on not being too critical or harsh.

Hi
Good thread,just happened to see it. I have been more inclined on salary nego which really interests me a lot. Well my favourite questions are:
1 - If you are so good why you are paid so less ?
2 - Why do you think you should get a 40% hike ?
3 - Coming from a small company how do you justify your role in this (big) company,what value addition you will do and within how much time (This question is specific to HR pros) ?
4 - What exactly you think companies look for while hiring a HR professional ?
5 - If we don't like your performance in 2 months, we may ask you to resign,how smooth can be your exit ?
Thanks

[QUOTE=YGeeta;842009]Hi
Good thread,just happened to see it. I have been more inclined on salary nego which really interests me a lot. Well my favourite questions are:
1 - If you are so good why you are paid so less ? Thats one of the reasons I thought I must consider a change. However I would like to know what the market would offer such a good candidate
2 - Why do you think you should get a 40% hike ?
I am looking for a job change for better opportunities in tems of challenge in the role - as well as a competitive salary package. I would not want to think of another job change in the next couple of years - only on the basis of "unsatisfactoy" levels of salary. So I guess once I have the financial component meet the 40% expectation, and better clarity of the role (in case you decide to offer me) - I would be able to perform and delivery well.
3 - Coming from a small company how do you justify your role in this (big) company,what value addition you will do and within how much time (This question is specific to HR pros) ?
Small company - More responsibilities. I think I have more hands on experience in the core areas, since I did not have many people around to assist me for everything. I had a small - but a team really led well (so this adds to my leadership skills).
Value addition: I cannot give you false promises, but based on my previous experience I believe I can deliver par excellence in the " ' areas. Time required at my level: 3 months
4 - What exactly you think companies look for while hiring a HR professional ? (have answered this to a diff post)
5 - If we don't like your performance in 2 months, we may ask you to resign,how smooth can be your exit ?
(question that shows arrogance of the HM)
Smooth - I don't know how you would define smooth as. But I would expect to have a clear Perf Appraisal with the details fo the area I never delivered (from what was expected out of a person at my level)
And I would also expect you not to delay with my final settlement & relieving letter, probably with a positive reason, and not one that hampers my growth. My previous experience has shown I am a good asset, so probably if I don't meet your requirements - it does not mean I don;t fit else where :-)

Hi Simmy,
How are you?
Yr.Q. If you are offered better pay package from our competitor, will you join them?
MyAns. No. I'll not join them because my conscious will not allow me to do wrong with my present employer but honestly I'll think over the opportunity and will discuss with my friends and trustworthy colleagues and will get the information about this employer before taking any decision. Because Money does matters for everyone dear.
Yr Q. What if you are appreciated more during your Boss presence?
My Ans: Better for me and my job. First, I would like to thank my boss to get this praise for my doing under his supervision. Because it would not have been possible without his guidance and support. Second, It will make me more enthusiastic and confident to perform my job and towards responsibilities.
Yr Q. What if, if you’re de-promoted for your unfair practices in our company.
My Ans: Firstly, It is not possible. I’ll not do anything wrong or against my employer. If one does, then one needs to resign immediately. Because after this no one can face their colleague and teammates even won’t be able to work there anymore. “De-promote” it is not just a word…..
Yr Q. What will be your reaction if you are told to resign immediately?
My Ans: I feel sad of course but will resign immediately.
