Best practices to answer interview questions
- Tell Me About Yourself (TMAY) is your opening pitch, not your life story. Briefly cover your background, academics, work experience (if any), and one interest that adds depth or relatability. Aim for a structured response within 60–80 seconds. A clear, concise introduction sets the tone for the rest of the interview.
- For work experience questions, go beyond listing responsibilities. Be prepared to explain your company’s business, your role, the industry context, and the impact of your work. Interview panels look for business awareness, not just task execution.
- When it comes to academic questions, depth matters more than breadth. Choose one subject from your graduation and, if applicable, one domain from your work experience that you understand well. Panels value conceptual clarity and application over memorised definitions.
- Across all answers, structure is as important as content. Panels assess clarity of thought, self-awareness, and confidence through how logically you present ideas and how calmly you handle follow-up questions.
Many candidates feel prepared until the interview begins. The real gap is often not knowledge, but interview readiness under pressure.
To experience this first-hand, give as many mock interviews as possible to simulate real experience and get structured, actionable feedback.
