Examples of Interview Question

Some examples of Interview questions you could use:

Questions to learn how they regard past or current positions they have held.

What activities do you enjoy most in your current job?
What job functions are the most difficult for you, why?
How have you improved your current position from the one you originally accepted?
Do you feel your job progress has been in keeping with your ability?

Questions that probe the personal relationships with people.
How would describe the best and worst supervisors you have had.
How would you describe your relationships with your current co-workers?
What kind of people do you most enjoy working with? What kind do you least enjoy working with.
What committees have you worked on and how have you found the experience.

Questions to explore aspirations
What is important to you in a job?
What would you like to be doing in five years?
What do you want from this job that is absent from your current job.

Questions to stimulate self-assessment.
As an employee, what do you consider your greatest strength?
What motivates you?
Why did you select this type of work?

Questions to determine how they are likely to apply their knowledge and skills.
What attracts you to this job?
What elements of this job would be new to you?
What additional training do you feel you will require to achieve full proficiency.

Here are some questions that cannot be asked! -
. How old are you?
. Do you have any children?
. How old are your children?
. Where do you attend church?
. Are you married?
. How will you care for your children during work?
. Do you receive any alimony or child support?
. Are you an immigrant?
. Are you pregnant?
. Can you send in a picture with your application?
. What is your maiden name?
. How much do you weigh?
. What is your father's surname?
. Where were you born?
. What clubs do you belong to?

These questions are considered discriminatory and are illegal.

However, there is one question that really all the questions you would like to, but feel unable to ask. That is:

If appointed to this position, do you know of any reason why you may not be able to fulfill the duties or responsibilities of the position?

This question should be asked at all interviews. It is the single most important question you can ask.

In fact this question is so important, I advise that you should actually get an answer in writing.
