How are you today?  \nHRs usually ask this question to set the mood and environment for the interview. No matter what your day’s experience has been, it would help if you positively answered this question with a smile on your face. Keep your answer short and simple, like:  \n“I am doing great, thank you. It’s good to be here.”  \n2. Tell me something about yourself.  \nThis is one of the first few questions that HR Managers ask candidates. As simple as it sounds, the question is quite tricky as it will put you (the candidate) on the spot. In a pressurizing and challenging situation like this, it is important to stay composed and calm. Try to analyse what your interviewer is interested to hear from you.  \nStart with a breezy and confident tone – keep in mind, your answer shouldn’t sound scripted. So, your sentences should be well-articulated, and pronunciation should be on point. Be quick to bring the focus on your most significant accomplishments first.  \nDo not repeat the things that you’ve already mentioned in your resume. Also, make sure that you never come off as overconfident or arrogant. Never downplay your accomplishments and talk negatively about yourself.  \nHere are two examples of how you can answer this question:  \nIf you are a fresher just out of college/university, here are two excellent ways of shaping your answer –  \n“I am among the top graduates of my batch. Besides having a BA/BSc/BCom degree in X subject, I also have an MBA degree in Operations/Digital Marketing/Business Analytics/International Business  \nfrom XYZ institute. As for my interests, I love exploring new domains, and I’m a fast learner.”  \nIf you are an experienced professional, your answer could be something like this –  \n“For the past few years, I’ve been deeply dedicated to administrative and managerial work in my organization. In this capacity, I’ve been lucky to have worn multiple hats like that of a Business Analyst, Team Lead, and Project Manager. I strongly believe in my power of persuasion and people skills. So, I can be a good fit for people-centric roles in your company.”  \n3. Why do you want to work for us? /Why do you think you are a good fit for this role?  \nThis question aims to help the interviewer understand whether or not you know the job profile’s requirements if you are a suitable candidate for the role, and what is your intent/goal behind choosing the company and the particular job role.  \nYour answer must convince the interviewer that you are indeed a good fit for this role. Here, you must explain and highlight your best qualities that sync well with the job role in question. You could talk about your past projects that are similar to this role’s requirements and your present/future career aspirations. This is where your knowledge of the company and its top executives will come in handy.  \nHere are two ways answers to this question:  \n“I chose this job profile and your company because I feel it’s a perfect match for my skills and experience. Presently, this is exactly the kind of role that I can visualize myself in as it aligns well with my career goals. I think with my skill set and background, and your guidance, I can grow tobe a valuable asset to your company.”  \n“Sir/Ma’am, I feel extremely grateful to have been called in for an interview with your company. It’s a privilege to be associated with your company, which boasts of a long-standing history in thought leadership. I’ve done my homework, and I know what the company stands for, and I feel that your vision perfectly aligns with my beliefs. I would very much like to be apart of your X team because this is where my skills and knowledge will be best utilized.”  \n4. What do you consider to be your strongest and weakest points?  \nAnother tricky question up the HRs sleeves, this is a direct hit to divulge your best and weakest qualities both as an individual and a professional. The interviewer wants to know more about your characteristics","cbCaisHPR7fOr6oH","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisHPR7fOr6oH","pdf",132410,16,"English","# HR interview questions\n## Opening and introduction questions\n## Role fit and motivation\n## Strengths and weaknesses","[{\"question\":\"How should you answer “How are you today?” in an HR interview?\",\"answer\":\"Answer briefly and positively, keep a friendly tone, and use a simple line like “I am doing great, thank you.
