Competency Interview Questions

When asking this question, an employer is n’t interested who you find it difficult to work with. They want to know what you do to ensure an effective working relationship with such individuals. 

A possible answer for this question could be: “I get on with all types of people, but get frustrated when working with those who don’t share my work ethic." 

In these situations, I find that by developing a good rapport the person, letting them know how important their contribution is to getting the job done, and appealing to their better nature………things get done.”

Apply the RM process to situations where serious injury might occur is not a RM (Risk Management) principle.

Risk Management :: A decision-making process for managing day-to-day schedules when there are conflicts.

When responding to conflict resolution questions, answer with confidence since you're being considered for a supervisory position where you will frequently be required to work in teams, delegate responsibilities, and handle difficult problems.

The following is an effective way to answer conflict resolution questions:

Before proposing a solution, I collect all relevant facts surrounding the conflict. Conflicts are often resolved if sufficient time is devoted to determining root causes, while disregarding trivial or irrelevant facts.

An effective answer can also be supplemented with the following response:

When resolving a problem between employees, I serve as a neutral third party. When needed, I establish rules of conduct. For an organization to operate efficiently, employees must be on the same page. At most organizations, bad feelings exist among some employees, so a manager is responsible for ensuring that employees are placed in situations where they're comfortable to focus on their job responsibilities. In other words, employees must be situated around others they can work with so productivity is not affected.

Career decisions are surely the toughest one and almost inevitable. I follow my instincts during any doubtful situations. b'coz in dilema u r not in the position to make a decision. what better guide can we get, other then our inner voice, during those difficult situations. This doesn't infact means that decision regarding the priority in life be left just to intuitions. Intuitions also needs input in the form of one's likes and dislikes. Goals proper set once, as such, go a long way in creating a good intuitive judgement.

I mostly follow my intuitions with full belief in them. But the outcome decision is based upon the analysis of the situations. So for people around me i am an analytical person, which is true to an extent. I don't come to, even a simplest decision in a rush.

This question is designed to see how well you can mediate a situation and handle conflict. You want to come across as someone who can compromise when necessary. An interviewer wants to see that you can not only reach an outcome that is desirable for both sides of a conflict of interest, but also that you can understand where the other person is coming from. Empathy and understanding go a long way in any job and this is a good opportunity to show that you can put yourself in another’s shoes.

The analogy here is like this: Veeru has 20 lt of petrol and he uses 1 lt per each day and consumes it in 20 days. If he uses 1.25 lt every day, in how many days it will be consumed?
We considered 1.25 lt here because it’s 25% more than 1 lt.

The answer would be  20/1.25=16 days.

Example:

“I have no problems with change. I am sure in my ability to regulate my actions of behaviors as needed, and take up myself adaptable to all situations – not just change.”
