Here are a few questions for you to prepare.
Tell me about yourself. This is a way of finding out how you organize your thoughts, how you articulate them, and on which information you choose to focus. Make a short, organized statement of your education and professional achievements and professional goals. Then, briefly describe your qualifications for the job and how you can contribute to the organization.
What is it about our company that interests you? Show the interviewer your interest in the company. Share what you learned about the job, the company and the industry through your research. Talk about how your professional skills will benefit the company.
Why do you want to work for us? Your answer must contain genuine, positive reasons backed up by supportive evidence. Your answer could be :
I enjoy working with people.
I think it might be interesting work.
I like tackling a challenge.
On their own these statements sound artificial so you need to back them up with some evidence. Give some examples of challenges you have dealt with recently.
What are your strengths? You must identify areas where you perform best and try to match these with the skills required for the job that you have applied for.
What are your weaknesses? Always state minor factual problems which can be remedied by adding a positive remedial action. “People find me finicky because of my insistence that everything should be exactly right.”
What are your career goals? OR What are your future plans? OR Where do you see yourself 5 or 10 years from now?
The interviewer is trying to match your plans and the company’s goals. Let him know that you are ambitious enough to plan ahead. Talk about your desire to learn more and improve your performance, and be as specific as possible about how you will meet the goals you have set for yourself.
What salary are you expecting? You should never answer this one directly. Instead, put the question back to the interviewer by saying something like: "I don’t know. What do you plan on paying the best candidate?" Let the employer make the first offer.
Prepare in writing the answers you would like to give. Remember that all your answers should be linked to the job (and job description) for which you are attending the interview.
