How to ace those dreaded interview questions

“People want to hire people they like,  normal people who talk normally. They don’t want to hire a robot.” 

Be relaxed, but not too relaxed: When interviewers ask you to ‘tell us about yourself’, they want to know about how you work, what you enjoy in your career and how you’ll fit in with the culture of the company.

We’ve all been there, coping with those dreaded interview questions that throw a spanner in the works of your carefully prepared answers.

 The meeting is going well, and the interview panel is clearly on your side, until, out of nowhere, comes that innocent query that completely topples your career ambitions.
