HOW-TO: INTERVIEW QUESTIONS https://www.chloecareers.com/offers/99rZgkxG/checkout

This is what will happen when you ask the interviewer how they will help you get up to speed in an area you don't have experience in. They ask you, we see you don't have experience in this specific area. How do you plan to overcome that? You say, I thought you might ask that. Based on these transferable skills that I have across these areas, X, Y, and Z, as well as my proven ability to be able to get up to speed quickly from my experiences in A, B, and C, I'm very confident in my capability in being able to get to the level that you need me to be to be able to deliver in this role. What I'm really curious to understand from you, based on that information I've just shared, do you feel that you have the resources required and the time needed to get me to the level you need me to be? What you're doing in this situation is rather than saying, I'm a fast learner, which simply doesn't cut it, you're giving them a list of transferable skills that you are confident will transfer across. You're giving them an example of when you've got up to speed previously. And then you're putting the onus back on them as to whether they have the time and the resources that you need to be able to get to the level that they need you to be, to be successful in this role. That way you're not wasting anyone's time. You're being completely transparent, all while asking for what you need, what you want, and what you know you deserve.
