Dear Friends,

Most of the time when we go to attend any interview, our mind stays in fear till the last moment of interview and we get free only the interview is over. Have you ever thought, why does it happen?

In my opinion it happens only because we don't go well prepared and before Interviewer either we get nervous or we answer not in the same way as we are supposed to.

I have tried to collect some of the very common questions which may help those who are preparing for interview. Questions which are not relevant, may kindly be ignored.

Warm up questions:

1. How your background and experience have prepared you for this position?
2. Highlight your education and experience.
3. Describe how you are qualified for this position?
4. What made you apply for this position?
5. Briefly summarize your work history and education.
6. How technically sound are you? Are you comfortable with library management software?
7. What is your role in the educational system as a library professionals?
8. How can the librarian and faculty work together to enhance students’ education?
9. Do you think the physical attributes of the library make a difference to the students?

Work History:

1. Can you describe one or two of your most important accomplishments?
2. Why are you leaving your present job? Or Why did you leave your last job?
3. What is important to you in an institute? Or What do you look for in an organization?
4. What library automation systems(s) have you used? Describe your experience using the system. (Also known as an Integrated Library System (ILS) or Integrated Library Management System (ILMS)
5. What experience do you have working in a multicultural environment?

Job Performance:

1. Everyone has strengths and weaknesses as workers. What traits or qualities do you feel could be strengthened or improved? Or In what areas would you like to improve?

2. There can be a great deal of pressure working at a public service desk. Describe a situation with a problem customer and how you handled it.

3. What experience have you had working in groups or as a team?

4. Describe your experience in creating or revising documents such as policies, procedures, or any other form of written copy. Please describe any supervisory experience you have.

Summary Statements:

1. Is there anything you would like to add about yourself?
2. Do you have any questions about the position?
3. Would you like to make a summary statement?

Basic Questions:

1. Name abstract databases
2. Name Full Text Databases
3. Role of Digital Library in Institutions/Universities: How can it be helpful?
4. Name any famous consortium in Science & Technology
5. H-ndex
6. What is citation Analysis? Name major databases
7. Role of Library Automation in academic library and best suitable software for this purpose.
8. Standards in Sc & Tech : ASTM

These questions are based on self experience as well as Internet searching. Please don't stick to these questions only, one should prepare beyond this also.
