QUESTION 12 OF 15

How would you rate your performance in this interview so far?

"I feel confident about our discussion today and am looking forward to the next steps in the interview process."

"I would rate my performance as an 8/10. I am happy how I answered most of the questions; however, I feel that I stumbled a bit on question XYZ. Could I further clarify for you?"

"I enjoyed this interview! Thank you for your great questions. Is there anything more I can cover for you today?"

"I would rate my performance to 90% of my ability. When you asked about my customer service experience, I feel that missed expressing some of my experience in dispute resolution. If you have time, I would like to cover that question further."

"I hope you enjoyed this interview as much as I did! I would rate my performance as a 9.5/10. The one thing I would do differently is talking a bit more about the current successes that I have in my sales pipeline."

"Thank you for asking. I would rate my performance today as an 8/10. There is always room for improvement, and I am sure when I get home today I will recall a couple of additional points that I did not cover today. If this should happen, are you okay with me emailing you some additional information?"

The interviewer would like to know if you are satisfied with your interview performance. If your interview were a flop, you would know, and it's much better to address outright your performance than try to sweep it under the rug.

If you feel that your performance in the interview is going well: 'I believe that this interview has been quite informative and I am happy with my performance. Is there anything that I can clarify for you from this conversation?'

If you feel that your performance in the interview is not going well: "I am not sure if I have been able to portray myself 100% accurately in this interview; although, I am trying my best. If there is anything more I can clarify for you, I would be happy to do so."

"I am not sure if I have been able to portray myself 100% accurately in this interview; although, I am trying my best. If there is anything more I can clarify for you, I would be happy to do so."

Community answers are written by other candidates practicing this set. Reading how others frame the same question is one of the fastest ways to sharpen your own.

Anonymous Answer

It's gone quite well, I'd say. It's been a pleasure to tell you more about myself and to learn more about the company and the position. Is there anything you would like me to clarify from what's been said so far?
