When looking for a job, you have to attend many interviews. By and large, they are all similar and are built on the principle of "question - answer". The questions, as a rule, are also the same: “How do you see yourself in five years in our company?”, “Why did you leave your previous job?”, “How much would you like to receive?”. But whatever the interview, be sure - one of the questions will surely sound “What do you want to get from the job?”. And it can catch even an experienced professional by surprise.
Instructions
Step 1
The main mistake of job seekers is that many people start praising a company or firm. You shouldn't do this, even if you really think that this place of work will help you realize yourself. The question "What do you want to get from work?" only in appearance it seems simple. It would seem, well, what can a person want to get from work? Good working conditions, high wages, the opportunity to move up the career ladder, social benefits.
Step 2
The question is aimed at identifying your motivation. You can answer like this: “My professional experience and knowledge helped to double the sales of my previous company. I think I can do the same in this job."
Step 3
Answers: “I like to communicate with people” or “I am satisfied with the working conditions, salary”, “I have wanted to do this for a long time …”, “This work seems interesting to me” also have a place to be. Try to show that you want to work for the future, that you can and know how to work in a team. The answer will be: "I would like to expand my experience …", "I am ready to work in a new team … I easily get along with people."
Step 4
Any, even the most tricky question, should play into your hands. Wrap it up to your advantage. “I would like to get not only positive emotions from this work, but also a real result: high sales, etc.”.
Step 5
But the most important thing when answering this question, and indeed during an interview, is sincerity. Be confident and speak the truth. The lie will be revealed sooner or later. And your behavior, if you are lying, can alert experienced personnel officers right away.
Step 6
When looking for a new job, be patient, perhaps you will have more than one interview. You may have to accept rejections. Do not despair, be who you really are, and a good job will definitely find you.
