Behavioral Interview Questions
I have a second round tomorrow for the Operations Manager opening with the COO of an online grocery shopping app company and I’m curious about what the expectation would be from me in terms of my personality and approach to solving problems. The recruiter mentioned the questions to be behavioral and this will be my first ever behavioral interview. Any tips about body language, how concise I keep my answers, how to not freak out?
Is the recruiter internal at this company, or an external recruiter? If external, ask them to ask some questions, role play, etc.
I'd say be a reserved version of yourself. This isn't pm_world on vacation, this is you in the corporate world. Something I have to remind myself is don't try to be funny, even though I am funny with my friends.
There are so many behavioral questions - I can't tell you how to answer them. I'd google search for some and formulate your answers. When asked a question, please feel free to take your time, be thoughtful, and think through your answer before responding. Think of the right way to answer it, then take another 2-5 seconds on how to word it. Concise it better.
