By rehearsing interview questions, you'll become more familiar with your own qualifications and will be well prepared to demonstrate how you can benefit an employer. Don't ask questions about only one topic. People who ask about only one topic are often perceived as one dimensional and not good candidates.


Some examples:

"Tell me about yourself."
Make a short, organized statement of your education and professional achievements and professional goals. Then, briefly describe your qualifications for the job and the contributions you could make to the organization by way of software expertise and commitment to understand user requirements

"Tell me about your last project.”
Describe briefly the project (do not learn by rote from your resume) and your role in it eg. Team member, or Team Leader.

“Did you face any problems?”
Mention a technical glitch (if there had been one) and how you and your team went about correcting it. Also, how long it took. Do not lay the blame on any specific person. Demonstrate that it was a learning experience that have added to your skills [learning is a continuous porocess all the time ]

“Do you know the latest version of _______?”
Be honest. If you have theoretical knowledge, say you do, and that you have not had an opportunity to have hands-on experience.

"What are your best skills?"
If you have sufficiently understood the project, you should be able to imagine what skills the company values. List them, then give examples where you have demonstrated these skills.

"What is your major weakness?"
Be positive; turn a weakness into a strength. For example, you might say: "I often worry too much over my work. Sometimes I work late to make sure the job is done well."

"Do you prefer to work by yourself or with others?"
The ideal answer is one of flexibility. However, be honest. Give examples describing how you have worked in both situations.

"What are your hobbies?" and "Do you play any sports?"
The interviewer may be looking for evidence of your job skills outside of your professional experience. For example, hobbies such as chess or bridge demonstrate analytical skills. Reading, music, and painting are creative hobbies. Individual sports show determination and stamina, while group sport activities may indicate you are comfortable working as part of a team.

Also, the interviewer might simply be curious as to whether you have a life outside of work. Employees who have creative or athletic outlets for their stress are often healthier, happier and more productive.

"Why do you want to work here?" or "What is it about our company that interests you?"
Few questions are more important than these, so it is important to answer them clearly and with enthusiasm. Show the interviewer your interest in the company and in the line of software development or application. Share what you learned about the job, the company and the industry through your own research. Talk about how your professional skills will benefit the company.

"What have I forgotten to ask?"
Use this as a chance to summarize your good characteristics and attributes and how they may be used to benefit the organization. Convince the interviewer that you understand the job requirements and that you can succeed.
