Favourite Interview Questions

According to a recent Accountemps survey, CFOs favourite interview questions focus on the applicant’s work style and personal attributes, job- and company-specific questions, and candidates qualifications. Some “oldies but goodies” included “where do you see yourself in five years?” and “tell me about yourself.” To learn more about the person “behind the resume” CFOs liked questions such as “If you were not going after this job, what would you be doing?” and “what are your hobbies?” And lastly, the curveball questions included “If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be and why?” Learn more at http://www.newswire.ca/en/releases/archive/April2011/19/c4524.html
