What do you think about the following interview question? "What is your responsibility as a manager?"
At a hiring meeting the other day, my organization decided the above question should be asked of all candidates for roles supervising staff.
In my interviews I plan to add a second half to make it more behavioral - which is "How have you delivered that responsibility in the past?"
What do y'all think about the question?
Interview question
I like the approach of making it more behavioral. What are you trying to gain out of the question? If its not behavioural you could get "fluffy" answers.
You could get two types of answers.
1) Monitor, write reports, organize
2) Guide, Coach, Mentor
The more I think about the question the more I like it. If it a shot in your next interview. It wont hurt!
Thanks, Nick
