This document provides guidance for answering common interview questions. It advises the interviewee to interpret the questions to understand how the interviewer will evaluate their ability to quickly contribute and whether they have relevant experience. Applicants should be honest about their background and experiences, provide concrete examples to demonstrate their skills, and keep answers concise by focusing on one illustrative situation. Rather than blame others, answers should emphasize how the interviewee addressed issues and opportunities for growth. Maintaining confidence through eye contact and preparation is also recommended.
