What happens during a "job interview"?
The great thing about job interviews is that no two are alike. And every applicant needs to be prepared for any variety of circumstances that might arise during a job interview. Sometimes a job interview is a few minutes of small talk, meet and greet chatting and then getting into the meat of the interview which is, what is your background, education experience, how can you be of benefit to us here in our company. And then a question and answer period for the candidate, where they have the opportunity to get their questions answered by the interviewer. That's a typical job interview, but that is not always the case. Sometimes you might be surprised by a group job interview when you think you're only going to be interviewed by one person. And sometimes it can be a more situational type of job interview, where you're asked more about how would you handle a particular type of situation, rather than to tell the interviewers about your background and experience. So it is best to be prepared for any number of different types of scenarios at a job interview.
