Q1. Tell me about yourself and why we should hire you in this Supply Chain position?
SUGGESTED ANSWER:
“I have worked in supply chain for a number of years now and I feel the experiences I have gained have brought me to the position I am in today, where I am a perfect match for your company.
I am conscientious, determined, resilient and professional in my approach to my supply chain duties, and I also understand that, without someone performing their duties in this position to a high standard, your organization cannot function effectively.
With me, you will get someone who has a thorough understanding of the supply chain process, an ability to work effectively as part of a team, and also a proven track record of achievement whilst completing difficult tasks whilst under pressure.

Q2. What is the supply chain?
SUGGESTED ANSWER
“In very simple terms, the supply chain is a system that involves organizations, people, resources, activities and information that are all involved in the process of moving a product or service from the supplier to the customer.
With a supply chain, there is usually an entire network of different entities that are all interlinked, working towards serving the same consumer or customer.
An example of a very simple supply chain, is where a vendor supplies a raw material, a producer turns that material into a product, a warehouse then stores the product, a distribution center delivers the product to a retailer, who then, in turn, delivers it to the consumer or the end user.”

Make sure you demonstrate during your supply chain interview your ability to plan effectively, maintain an organized approach to your work, and also to being capable of overcoming tough challenges and problems.

Within our 22 SUPPLY CHAIN INTERVIEW QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS guide, we have provided you with strong/top-scoring answers to the likely interview questions.
