What do you like least about your existing job?

There are always some good and bad things about any job.
We love doing things which we like and avoid things we do not like. The interviewer is trying to understand what we dislike and how will this impact the performance in new job.
If it is a critical skill that we don't like, then it is a big problem. Are their any routine things which don't add value but are necessary?
Be watchful before you answer.
Also tell how do you handle the things which you dislike.
Do's
• Figure out those activities which you do not like in your current job
• Explain the reasons for activities which you do not like
• More important thing to explain is what you do about those things
• Show you complete this first, take support, learning a new technique to manage it well
Don'ts
•Job critical dislikes is a red flag. Be watchful

Demonstrate the soft skills in your resume

In addition to hard and soft skills, we must also exhibit self-management skills e.g. self-motivation, time management and stress management. Being open minded, flexible, adaptable, experimenting and learning from mistakes are the key differentiator for a person's success.

World Economic Forum lists out the top ten soft skills, which employers look for. These are · - Complex Problem Solving · - Critical Thinking · - Creativity · - People Management · - Coordinating with Others · - Emotional Intelligence · - Judgment and Decision Making · - Service Orientation · - Negotiation · - Cognitive Flexibility

As a prospective employee, it is our job to learn and enhance the soft skills continuously as well as demonstrate relevant skills in our resume and during the interview to increase our success rate in the interview process.
