that you'll find useful:

and making an educated guess as to which skills
are most desired by the employer. You can study
the job description of the position or go to
some job boards to review requirement sections
of related jobs.
2. Compile a list of skills that are relevant to
the position you are applying.
3. Identify behavioral interview questions by
introductory phases like "Tell me about a time
when...," " Describe a situation where you...,"
"Give me an example of..." etc.

necessary, rephrase the question and ask for
clarification.

6. Use
your real-life examples instead of your opinions or
theoretical statements. The employers want to know what you
have done in the past, not what you think you would do in
the future.
7. Vary the length of your answers. You can prepare short
description of each situation but be ready to give details
if asked. You can also determine if you have given enough
information by asking questions like, "Would you like more
details on that?" "Would you like another example?".
8. Be honest. It will be bad for you if the interviewer find
out that your story is built on weak foundation.
