Good contribution by Ajay. These are standard and relevant questions asked in interviews; however, don't parrot these answers blindly. Understand them and be ready to justify your responses. Try to be as honest and assertive with your answers. During the interview, focus on answering the intentions of the questions!

Be smart, assertive, and social in the interview. BPO is all about dealing with brattish youngsters.
