You've been asked to set up and coordinate a meeting.
What actions will you take? Among other things, the time, place, agenda, and attendees.
Give us an example of your ability to work with confidential
information. Information that may be considered as confidential include personnel documents
and investigations or financial reports?
What are the different means by which documents may be filed? A couple are chronological and subject.
During lunch, you are alone in the office. A distraught
person comes in and wants to talk to someone in charge. How will you handle this
person? A good place to start is to find out what the problem is. This is another
variation of the "irate customer question". Let the
person talk; listen; identify the problem, determine who might be able
to help the person; refer them to the proper person or take the
initiative to resolve the problem yourself; if this requires getting
back to the person get their telephone number or address as required;
get the problem resolved; and follow-up with the person.
Your boss is on vacation. An employee from another
section comes in and requests a file from your boss' desk. What will your do? Who is the person (supervisor or clerk?) and what information are they
requesting (confidential material)?
Do you have anything to add? Emphasize your qualifications as they apply to this job. Also cover
anything you missed from your opening.
