Behavioral Interview Question:

What to do if answer is not flattering?

Submitted by: Murtaza

Sometimes you will have an answer that does not reflect well on your candidacy. It may be a good idea to feign amnesia and act as though you have not had the experience before. It may also be useful to tell the interviewer what you would have done differently. An answer for a difficult question may be "Well, at the time I did this, but soon after I realized that the ideal way to handle it would be that." Minimize the negatives and put more focus on how you would have handled the situation. Good answers will show the employer that you are willing to learn from your mistakes.
