Need answers to PM interview questions

by faraz2001us . Updated 17 years, 11 months ago

Hi all ,

I am currently working as a system analyst & want to make a shift to project managership, I downloaded sample questions from a website relating to PM interview, please send me intelligible answers to these questions :

? How would you start a project?
? If you were to deliver a project to a customer, and timely delivery depended upon a sub
supplier, how would you manage the supplier? What contractual agreements would you put in place?
? In this field (the field you are interviewing for), what are three critically important things you must do well as a project manager in order for the project to succeed?
? What metrics would you expect to use to determine the on-going success of your project?
? How are your soft skills? Can you “sell” the project to a team?
? You have a team member who is not meeting his commitments, what do you do?
? Companies have historically looked at technical skills, but more and more business managers are realizing that not have “people” skills tend to cripple projects.
? How many projects you handled in the past? Deadlines met? On time/ within budget? Obstacles you had to overcome?
? Do you understand milestones, interdependencies? Resource allocation?
