This is one interview question that gets most of the interviewees off guard. Well, it is no Rocket Science to do that. All it requires is a bit of awareness and pro activeness to elaborate upon the rviewers ask this question to make sure that a your experience matches the job requirements. This question also helps the interviewer assess whether you have the personal qualities the company looks for in an employee, such as organization, the ability to work well with others, and an aptitude for meeting challenges head on. Make your answers as specific as possible by providing a real life example of each task. Never give a description of your 'typical' day as 'typical'. Color it vibrantly. Even if all you do is make copies of documents for your boss, make it sound like the most 'interesting' job you held (unless you are changing careers, if that is the case, concentrate on the good things (only) and see how you can translate that experience into the new role you are applying for).
