Interview Questions from Employers

An employer may ask range of questions during a job interview. Purpose of asking questions is to scan a certain candidate to best suit a job position. As an employer, you need to make sure you define job requirements and type of employee looking for and then plan a list of questions to be asked in interview. Being a candidate you should know the position you are applying for and be prepared for all possible interview questions. Providing a list of interview questions is one of the best interview tips for employers and candidates as well.
