Developing Psychological Skills
Explain types of interview questions and give examples of each.
Direct Question: They are explicit and require specifying information. For example, 'Where did you last work?'
Open-ended Question: They are less direct and specify only the topic. For example, 'How happy are you with your job on the whole?'
Close-ended Question: They provide response alternatives, narrowing the response variations. For example, 'Do you think knowledge of a product or communication skill is more important for a salesperson?'
Bipolar Question: It is a form of close-ended question. It requires a 'yes' or 'no' response. For example, 'Would you like to work for the company?'
Leading Question: It encourages a response in favour of a specific answer. For example, 'Wouldn't you say you are in favour of having officer's union in the company?' Mirror Question: They are intended to get a person to reflect on what he or she had said and expand on it. For example, you said, 'I work so hard but I am unable to get success.' Please explain as to why this happens.
