“In most cases, the best strategy for a job interview is to be fairly honest, because the worst thing that can happen is that you won't get the job and will spend the rest of your life foraging for food in the wilderness and seeking shelter underneath a tree or the awning of a bowling alley that has gone out of business.”― Lemony Snicket, Horseradish

Introduction: What is an interview and what are the types of questions you'll be asked?
An interview is a conversation that usually takes place in person or by telephone, in which an interviewer asks questions of the person being interviewed. Interviews are used to collect information about a person's education and work experience, to assess their suitability for employment, or to gather data.
There are four types of questions you'll be asked during an interview:
- Where do you see yourself in five years?
- What is your greatest weakness?
- What's your biggest accomplishment?
- Where do you see yourself professionally in five years?
Almost every job interview begins with a few general questions about your skills and experiences.
The interviewer will want to know about your strengths and weaknesses, what you can offer the company, and how you would fit in with the team. In addition, they will want to know if you have any questions for them.
