Q:

A sentence with one blank is given, indicating that something has been omitted. Choose the word that best fits the blank appropriately.

The judge used his ___ in settling the matter.

A) Know B) Tactics
C) Discretion D) Brains
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Discretion

Explanation:

To settle a dispute, one needs to have a sound decision-making ability to be able to judge both the sides. Also, a judge is a free body to decide upon any issue. 'Know' is a verb which means to be aware of through observation, inquiry, or information. 'Tactics' refer to an action or strategy carefully planned to achieve a specific end. A judge doesn't need tactics to make a judgment. 'Discretion' means the freedom to decide what should be done in a particular situation. 'Brains' refer to the intellectual capacity. 'Bias' means inclination or prejudice for or against one person or group, especially in a way considered to be unfair. Hence option 3 is the correct response.

Q:

What relevant qualifications do you have?

Answer



In asking the question, the interviewer is really looking at two components of qualifications. Qualifications received from a school setting and qualifications concerning beyond  experience within the customer service area. This will help in figuring out how appropriate the interviewee is for the position for which they have applied. The  applicants should outline their his/her academic qualifications relevant to the job. After this, they need to point out the experience they have achieved from last jobs. This should be carried out in a way that demonstrates the application of theory to realistic skills, focused on handling real life situations.
