Welcome to the NSCN Member Tip of the Week


42 Interview Questions
 
Nailing basic interview questions like "Tell me about yourself" can get you through a phone screen interview, but once you get into the face-to-face interview, you're going to need to step up your interview game. 

Vault has compiled a list of  42 of the most interesting, challenging interview questions and the feedback we're getting from some of our NSCN job seekers is that these are definitely showing up in face-to-face meetings. Take a look and see how you would respond to these questions if someone asked them of you in an interview.

And remember -- as a NSCN member, you have free access to Vault on our  NSCN website. After you log in, you can find Vault on the Job Seekers page under Career Tools. You can also practice your interview skills by doing mock interviews on Optimal Resume, also under Career Tools!
