How to Answer Interview Questions with Good Answers Even When You don’t the Know the Answers!





Remain Calm
The best course of action when you don't know how to answer an interviewer's question is to remain at ease. Distract yourself with another pre-planned thought or count to five, and then give the question your best shot.

Be Honest
When you don't know how to answer an interviewer's question, it may just be best to be honest that you don't know the answer. It's best not to mislead your potential boss but rather, be straightforward.

Impromptu Ideas
An impromptu answer is one solution to an unknown job interview question. Before you give a response, briefly pause and then repeat what you were asked to give yourself a little time to ponder the question. After that, focus on one main point of the of the inquiry and support your answer with several facts or opinions. Even if you only partially answer the interviewer's original question, you gave it a solid effort.

Know the Basics
Prepare yourself before the interview with some basic questions about your industry. If you don't technically know an answer, fill in with a response to a similar question. 
For example, if you're applying for a sales job, you may be asked how you have handled a threatening customer in the past. If you have never dealt with the given scenario, you could say, "I have never faced that situation, however, I have addressed client complaints and we were able to talk through and resolve the issues at hand."
Follow that up with explaining how you deal with difficult real life work situations in more detail.
