Interview questions [1]
Question 1
When was a time when you health with a difficult situation?
Competency based interview, A competency-based interview assesses a candidate's job-related skills and behaviors by asking for specific examples from past experiences. These structured or behavioral interviews use questions like "Tell me about a time when..." to gauge competencies such as problem-solving, teamwork, communication, and leadership. Preparing with the STAR method (Situation, Task, Action, Result) is a common and effective way to structure answers to these questions.
