"For example, many candidates should be ready to answer questions like: 'What are your strengths and weaknesses?', 'Why do you want to work here?' and 'Where do you see yourself in five years?'" To help job candidates prepare for anything, Glassdoor has also compiled a list of the Most Common Interview Questions.

Interview questions are part of the Interview Reviews feature on Glassdoor, which offers insights into the interview process for specific jobs at specific companies -- all for free. Glassdoor has collected nearly one million interview questions and reviews around the world. Interview Reviews include details from actual job candidates about the entire hiring process, including the interview format, how the interview was achieved (e.g., applied online, connected via a recruiter, etc.), average duration, ratings on the overall interview experience and interview questions and answers.
