Why'd you wanna work for our company as an office manager?

Here we go.

I would like to work for your company for the simple reason.

You are clearly very good at what you do.

And you are at the forefront of innovation within your industry.

Now, job satisfaction is very important to me.

And they only ever want to work for an organization that would support me in the role of office manager to enable my team and I to develop and grow professionally.

The company I work for is actually more important than the position itself on.

While Stir would feel privileged to be your office manager, the sense of pride would actually come from being employed by you.

Your company, if I do realize my objective when I get to work for your company, is not this manager.

How you gonna monitor the performance of your team, that this is based on my many years experience as a manager?

The best way to do it?

Here we go.

I would monitor the performance of my team by having a hands on approach to management.

I would set clearly defined objectives for each individual member of the team by way of carrying out annual appraisals.

The appraisal process would allow me to get to know my team inside out, identify their strength and also allow me to help them improve on their weaknesses.

Now, in addition to the appraisal process, I would also hold regular meetings with the team where they would have the opportunity to discuss any issues or problems they were facing.

I could then support them by directing and advising them on the best way to progress forward.

Collectively, the team meetings would also allow me to monitor team performance in line with the strategic aims of the organization that shows that you really know how to monitor the performance of your team.

But you'll do that by having a hands on approach.

Or more importantly, you'll be carrying out appraisals so people know you know what's expected of them, and you can get to know their strengths and their weaknesses.

How would you delegate responsibility to others as the office manager?

Now, some people would say, in response to this, well, I probably wouldn't delegate.

I will do a lot, lot myself that that's no effective management.

You need to be able to delegate, but who you delegate to is really important.

You can't delegate tasks to anybody.

There has to be a thought process behind it, and here is that thought process.

Here we go.

The delegation of responsibility is a very important aspect of being an office manager.

Get it right, Your life becomes much easier.

However, if you get it wrong and you will encounter problems which can impact on the wider organisation.

I would delegate responsibility by first of all, assessing the performance of my team members to find out the strengths each individual possesses.

I would also, through the appraisal process, identify what it is exactly that drives each member of the team.

It is far better to delegate responsibility based on a key individual strengths and also their appetite enthusiasm for the role.

If someone is keen to develop and progress within the organization, I think it's far better to delegate important tasks to them as they will have the right attitude, the right approach and the appetite for the task they are responsible for.

So you're thinking carefully about how to delegate.

You are also showing in the answer that you believe delegation is important and it is trust me.

As an office manager, you have to be able to delegate.

Next question.

How would you react to conflict between two members of your team?

So this is assessing whether you are willing and able to challenge conflicts and sort it out, or whether or you'll just leave the people who have the conflict to sort it out amongst themselves.

So here is my suggested answer to these tough office manager interview question.

How would you react to conflict between two members of your team?

Here we go.

I've always viewed conflict to something that needs to be tackled straight away simply because it can manifest itself into a bigger problem that could affect the wider team or organization.

Now, of course, it is not possible to have a harmonious atmosphere all of the time we've been in office, and there will be the odd occasion where some people experience conflict.

We've others.

I would react to the conflict initially by encouraging the two members to resolve it themselves.

Providing, of course, the issue is nothing serious in my experience, Just by making the two members aware that you have noticed conflict.

This is usually enough for them to resolve it themselves quickly.

However, if I detect the problem is not getting resolved and it's something more serious.

I would take a media action and speak to both members.

Collectively, we review to facilitating a way forward that will get them both working positively and professionally for the wider good of the team on the organization.

All of these answers demonstrate that you know what you're doing.

That's the important thing.

You or if you don't have much experience, you have a plan in place to become an effective office manager.
