Q1. What would you do if your manager asked you to perform a task you’d never done before?

SUGGESTED ANSWER:

“I am naturally a self-motivated person who enjoys challenging situations, so I would go away and find out how to complete the task to a high standard. I would see this as an opportunity to learn something new, and there are lots of ways I could find out how to perform the task within the dedicated timeframe. I could tap into the knowledge of more experienced people within the organization, and I could also read manuals or gain access to online information. Either way, I would make sure the task was completed on time, and also to the necessary standards.”

SUGGESTED ANSWER

“I would, first of all, inform my manager or supervisor about the mistake before taking immediate steps to put the situation right. It’s important to be honest when you make a mistake as there is usually an opportunity for you, the team and the organization to improve by looking at ways to prevent the situation from happening again. I would want to make sure I took the necessary steps to prevent the same mistake from happening again, and this could be achieved through either additional training or implementing a double-check system when tasks are completed.”

Scenario-Based & Situational Interview Questions – Your Questions Answered!


In this section of the website, we will answer the most common questions raised by job-seekers in relation to scenario-based, hypothetical and situation job interview questions.

What Are Scenario-Based And Situational Interview Questions?

These types of interview question assess what you would do in any given hypothetical situation. They are designed to assess your work ethics, your values and also what type of employee you are most likely to be.

Is There A Right Way to Answer Scenario-Based Job Interview Questions?

Absolutely! Whilst we are certainly not advising you to give the hiring manager an answer they want to hear, it is very easy to answer the interview questions incorrectly. For example, take a look at the following scenario-based / situational interview question and consider how you would answer it:

What would you do if you witnessed two team members arguing?

Most people would ignore this this type of situation and they would simply wait for their manager or supervisor to take the appropriate action necessary. However, if you are a professional team worker who does not want to see the organization suffer due to this type of scenario, then you would look to take positive action quickly yourself and try to resolve it without involving our manager.

What Are the Most Common Types of Scenario-Based Interview Questions?

At PassMyInterview.com, we have carried out extensive research into the type of scenario-based interview questions commonly asked at job interviews and listed them all on this page to help you prepare!

What is the Star Technique for Answering Scenario-Based & Situational Interview Questions?

Sometimes, an interviewer or hiring manager will ask you to give a specific situation you have previously been in where you responded to a situation or scenario. This type of interview question usually starts off with any of the following statements:

  1. Describe a situation where you…
  2. Tell me about a time when you…
  3. Have you been in a situation before where you…
  4. When have you had to…

One of the most effective ways to answer situational interview questions of this nature is to use the STAR technique interview method. Simply structure your answer in the following manner to gain the highest marks possible:

SITUATION: Describe the situation you found yourself in.

TASK: Now explain briefly the task that needed to be done/

ACTION: Go into detail and explain the action you and others took to achieve the task.

RESULT: Explain the result of your actions (make sure the end result is positive!)

3 TIPS FOR ANSWERING SCENARIO-BASED & SITUATIONAL INTERVIEW QUESTIONS

TIP #1 – Scenario-based interview questions appear to be relatively easy to answer upon first inspection. However, you can quite easily end u saying the wrong thing and end up not getting the job as a result! Therefore, it is important you put yourself in the shoes of the hiring manager and think carefully about the type of answer they want to hear. Scenario-based and situational interview questions assess your values and work ethics, so make sure you consider your answers carefully

TIP #2 – More often than not, the type of scenarios you will be presented with during your job interview will assess whether or not you are a team player, and also whether or not you look to put the organization’s needs or you own needs first. When answering situational and scenario-based interview questions, always put the needs of the organization above everything else!

TIP #3 – The best way to prepare for scenario-based and situational interview questions is to prepare answers to every job interview question listed on this page. By doing so, you will be significantly increasing your chance of success at the interview! All of the interviews listed on the page have been specifically designed to make you the STANDOUT candidate at your job interview!
