This is also advantageous because he can cover up the position of health and safety engineer in event of annual leave, vacation or as the case may be. Every organization wants to cut cost.

It should be noted especially for fresh graduates who may undergo basic training before the real job that some organizations do not like to spend money just after training, you quick the their job.An example is that if you tell them that " i want to be valuable part of this company in years to come", or i want to ensure that my career growth is enhanced in this company". These are the statements that shows that you are willing to stay.

7. always end this type of interview question with statement of this nature " i believe i am a goal oriented person" or i am an achiever" or i am a spirit driven person at work without or less supervision"

- look at all members of the panel during the time that you are talking to them.
