One approach is asking the interviewer about the salary range, but to avoid the question entirely, you can respond that money isn't a key factor and you're goal is to advance in your career. However, if you have a minimum figure in mind and you believe you're able to get it, you may find it worth trying.

Continuing education shows such desires, especially when potentials display interests in academia potentially benefiting the company.
Answering in terms of “I plan on continuing my studies in the technology field,” when offered a question from a technology firm makes sense.

Keep answers short and to the point, avoiding diatribes causing candidates to appear insincere.

You should be able to join it right away, barring plans you've already made (family travel, vacation, other obligations).

If they are not, weight the importance of joining that company vs. your plans.

63. If I were to give you this salary you requested but let you write your job description for the next year, what would it say?

It should say the same thing - after all - if you think this salary is fair then it should suit the responsibilities!

64. What schedule do you hope to work? Are you willing to work extra hours?

Be honest. If you really want the job and are willing to work any schedule needed, say so. If, however, you have no intention of working late hours or weekends, simply let the interviewer know the hours that you are available to work. The same applies to extra hours. You are more likely to be hired if you are willing to work any time you are needed. However, saying that you are willing and then complaining about the hours once you start working is a recipe for disaster.

Describe the problem first and then discuss how you were able to fix it.

69. Where do you see yourself professionally five years from now As LAN Specialist (Local Area Network Specialist)?

It means not doing things exactly the same way as everyone else. You've got to challenge the status quo and bring something new to the business.

For this be prepared and research salary to find out what similar positions are paying in your area before you go to the interview. Try to find this information out before giving your salary expectations. You can and should provide a range instead of an exact number.

Quality work to be is about doing work to the require or set standard, which is very important when it comes to warehouse operations.

78. What was the most important task you ever had?

There are two common answers to this question that do little to impress recruiters:
☛ ‘I got a 2.1'
