Skill specific questions are asked to determine if you have the knowledge and skills to sufficiently perform the required job. When answering skill specific questions, demonstrate that you are capable and the best fit for the job.

Growth Potential

There are multiple reasons why interviewers are interested in your growth potential. For employers, it’s important to hire candidates that are able to perform the job today but can also grow into higher positions and take on greater responsibilities. Employees that stay with an organization for a longer period can add more value to the company over time. This is called the long-term return on their hiring investment. An interviewer will be interested in your self-awareness/emotional intelligence, learning capabilities, flexibility, future vision and proactivity.
