HR Coordinator Interview Preparation Guide

Depending on your experience, talk about instructing employees or interviewees in matters of salary and work hours, sick days and vacations, health benefits and retirement plans. Other duties include maintaining discipline and common vision, morality and team-spirit among employees.

The employers will assess very carefully the personality of the candidate for traits of openness, honesty, integrity, sociability, initiative, flexibility, determination (as opposed to stubbornness) etc. Say that it's not about attracting talented individuals, but about creating a talented community of employees with a common vision.

It requires analytical thinking, independence and initiative, problem solving ability and interpersonal sensitivity. Training is one way to improve motivation. Conflict management is another. You can give specific examples of how you have resolved a conflict (between employee and company or between several employees) which resulted in better motivation.
