Manager interview questions to practice
Management interviews are mostly stories: what you did when it was your call.
questions to rehearse
- Tell me about a time you had to give difficult feedback.
- How do you handle an underperforming team member?
- Describe a decision you made without all the information.
- How do you set priorities when everything is urgent?
- Tell me about a conflict between two people on your team.
- How do you earn the trust of a team you have inherited?
How to answer them
These are examples of the kind of question managers get asked. Most of them want a story. The STAR structure keeps a story short: the situation, your task, the action you took, the result.
Pick one real example for each question and say the answer out loud. You find the weak parts when you hear yourself.
Rehearse with someone who follows up
In murmur the interviewer asks a follow-up based on what you said. The feedback then checks each answer against the STAR structure, quotes what you said, and suggests what to add. Write your own scenario for a manager role, or start with the built-in interview.
