Having read our job interview questions, you should be well prepared for the big day by now. So you wake up on time, dress up according to the situation and land up at the interview place on time. As you are ushered into the interview room, the interviewer asks you, ’If you could be any animal in the jungle which one would you choose?’ Call us psychics but we can see you answering, ‘HUH?’ The good news is that there are no right or wrong answers to these psychological statements! These questions are asked by the interviewer to judge your innovativeness, creativity, logical reasoning and most importantly, your ability to think on your feet at the spur of the moment. Don’t take these questions lightly as they might just be the wild card replies which determine whether you get hired or fired! A funny question does not necessarily call for a comeback answer that is equally hilarious or meaningless. A concise and coherent reply is what the interviewer would probably be expecting. If you think you have covered all grounds and left no stone unturned for the preparation of a much-awaited job interview then we have a list of questions for you. Read through these and if you can answer them all, you are the best candidate for almost any job on this planet!
