相信大家一定在MONSTER上都做过这个测试，我觉的细读每个问题的解释还是很有帮助。把这些常见问题搬过来，再次和大家仔细咀嚼一下。

1.Tell me about yourself and your past experience.

I was born and grew up in Seattle, Washington. I got married, started a family, and moved to California. My degree is in computer science. I've worked eight years for the same company and have been promoted twice. I'm now looking for something challenging.

This answer is not the best answer.

Too much personal information is given. Your marital status and the fact that you have children, are considered off-limits or illegal to ask in an interview, so there is no need to volunteer the information. Be careful of giving information that is unnecessary or irrelevant to the question.

I've always been good at, and liked, working with computers. I didn't finish my degree, but I've worked in different companies in a variety of situations and have received excellent performance reviews. I am a high-energy person. I work independently, and I like a fast-paced environment.

This is not the best answer.

Many of the comments are vague and general. Don't volunteer negative information, and if asked about your degree, present it in a positive light. With more specifics this answer could reveal a lot more experience, skills and personal traits. Try to speak the language of the industry. What requirements are they seeking? Look at job listings on Monster.com for examples.

I have four years experience working in the high tech industry. For the past two years, I have been working as a Web developer. I have experience with most of the software programs on the server side: Javascript, ASP, VB, HTML and SQL Server. I am very organized and able to do multiple projects at once. I want to work in a cutting-edge company where I can add my experience to the mix and be a part of a growing team.

This is the best answer.

By emphasizing specific examples of knowledge-based skills, transferable skills, and personal traits, you give the interviewer a summary or snapshot of yourself. Speak the jargon of the industry.

2.Why did you leave your last position?

The company went through a reorganization, and I was one of 50 people who was let go. We could see the handwriting on the wall beforehand. There were some poor management decisions, and things had started to deteriorate. They even began cutting out some of our perks. I probably would have left eventually anyway

This is not the best answer.

Being laid off is not the problem. It is common for companies to go through reorganization or mergers. The problem is the attitude behind the answer. Bad-mouthing your former employer and complaining about the way things were handled is not appropriate in an interview.

I'm not finding the job as interesting or challenging as I used to. I've been dealing with the same issues and problems for a long time. I want to find a job that is stimulating, where I can grow and learn. I'm looking for job satisfaction. I want to have more balance in my life.
