- Going up to an interview can be a challenging task, but it gets a little complicated when you’re going for an HR job. That’s especially true for established HR roles like that of the HR coordinator. That’s why if you’re going for an interview, it’s best to look at some HR coordinator interview questions and answers.
1. Why are you applying for this (HR Coordinator) position?
When you’ve gone over the niceties, the first question most recruiters will ask you is why you’re applying for the position. It’s crucial to not get phased by this question and have a robust answer ready to go.
This is your opportunity to steer the interview in your favor. That’s because if you can convince the interviewer that you want this position and that it’s important to you, the upcoming questions will only reinforce your strong position.
The best way to answer this question is by starting with a little background about your HR career. Briefly explain why you got into HR and try to spin it in a way that’s inspiring. Once you establish that base, start delving into your HR career.
Go into a little detail about how you started your HR career, including your first official role and how you have progressed over the years. After that, explain that the HR coordinator position is the next logical step in your HR career and will help you develop a career path.
Meanwhile, it’s also important to use the company angle - mention that an HR coordinator role in that company would help boost your HR career and give you more opportunities to grow.
2. What other jobs are you applying for?
Usually, after you answer the question about why you’re applying for the position, hiring managers tend to ask about other jobs you have applied to. The question is there to check two things:
3. How serious you are in building your HR career?
For example, if you’ve applied for a finance job at another company, that would be a red flag for the recruiter. That tells them you’re not one hundred percent sure about an HR career and that you’ve applied to the position for the sake of getting a job.
However, if you tell them that you’ve applied to other HR coordinator and HR positions in the same industry but at companies that have different offerings, that’s a green light. That tells the recruiter that you’re serious about building an HR career and that you’re interested in the HR coordinator position of their company.
4 What do you think the HR coordinator position entails?
This question is a shot in the dark that’s only asked to gauge your understanding of human resources in general. Many companies have redundant job descriptions; the actual tasks may be very different. However, they still expect you, the candidate, to have some sense of understanding of the role.
While the ideal way to answer the question is to prepare an answer beforehand by researching HR coordinator roles in companies, you also need to leverage your work experience. That’s how you can give specific examples in these common interview questions.
At this point, you can even reference some HR tasks from your last job to make your point. In any case, you need to explain the HR coordinator role as an interviewee to show them that you understand what is required from the job.
