basic interview based questions and their answers on bsc psychology course asap?
Dear Student,
Some basic interview based questions that interviewer will definitely ask you at first :-
- Tell me about yourself - This is a very common question being asked in any interview. And you have to prepare a strong answer for this, which would instantly interest the interviewer. Try putting less adjectives and more details about yourself. The best answer would focus on why you are a great fit for this role. Choose a life story that leads directly to this job. For example, You can say, "I studied psychology with the idea that I would be a therapist. But an engaging experiment in my marketing psychology class changed that. That experience showed me that I want to do marketing research."
- What interests you about psychology ? - This question gives you the opportunity to demonstrate your enthusiasm for your specific field of study. Tell a story that shows your passion for the subject. For example, "When I was 13, my older brother was diagnosed with schizophrenia. My mother was overwhelmed, and I had no one to talk to. I look forward to working in social services to help families like mine." Your story doesn't have to be as dramatic as this one, but try to give a compelling reason for your trajectory.
- What was your focus of study ? - If you focused on forensic psychology, but this is a job in career counseling, explain why you are a fit. Did you learn something in an internship that applies well here? Does your ability to be investigative and focus on the details demonstrate relevant skills for the position? Translate your previous experiences and classwork to this role. You've thought about transferable skills already for your cover letter and other application materials, so remember that anecdote if you're struggling in the moment.
- What would your strengths and weaknesses be as an employee? - If you are applying for a job in public relations, you might say, "I'm an excellent writer. I wrote for the school paper and have published a few short stories." Or, "I'm very social. I have a large social circle and stay in touch with a vast number of people through social media." For weaknesses, reflect on situations where you made a mistake but then fixed it and choose the most relevant; that will allow you to tell a strong anecdote in the interview.
