"why do you wana work for us?"

One of the most predictable questions! You need to demonstrate your knowledge of the employer (by reading employer brochures/annual reports etc.,) as well as tying that knowledge in to a positive reason why you chose to apply. For example, when applying to a medium-sized firm of accountants you may wish to emphasise how the size will affect any of the following factors:

Breadth of experience

Opportunity for promotion

Range of clients

Relationships with staff.

Maybe say that, you like helping peoplwheneverer there is an opportunity, I like to gain more confidence and become more assertive in my own work

why shud we hire you?"

For example, team work, interpersonal skills, creative problem solving, dependability, reliability, originality, leadership etc., could all be cited as strengths. Work out which is most important for the particular job in question and make sure you illustrate your answer with as many examples from as many parts of your experience, not just university, as you can.

First, make sure you spell words correctly on any paperwork.

Show up on time.

do not sit down until asked to do so.

call the person interviewing you by their last name "Mrs. Jones, Mr. Jackson" for example.

Answer questions in complete sentences.

Use proper grammar- don't say "I ain't never cooked before"

Be willing to work any shift- including Friday nights, weekends, holidays.
