As someone who actively take interviews for Expedia. This what I look when I interview a candidate for a technical role and most other companies must be looking for similar things. Good problem solving skills coming to final solution is not necessary, but your thought process is what is observed very carefully. How you approach a problem. Good communication skills , ability to convey what's in your mind. These are the most important skills. After that comes your technical skills which can give you an edge over other candidates. But if you don't have the skills mentioned earlier then there's high probability if not getting selected. And you know what we are given special training to test a candidate on above skills. And the best thing is you can develop these skills by practice and giving mock interview. Let me know if you need any further help. read less

Regardless, of the company and the position, you're interviewing for; the first question that is typically asked is "Tell me about yourself". While answering this question, it is important to sell yourself by talking about your educational qualifications and work experience, followed by convincing the interviewer as to why you are interested in the company and the position, but most importantly, why should the company be interested in you! Make sure this "selling yourself' speech that you come up with is aligned with the job description of the position you're interviewing for. read less
