What are proof related questions about?
The idea of this type of question is to trap you in a close question, for example: 'Do you have experience with FrontPage?' You have to answer yes or no to the question. If you answer yes, you have to give an example, because that is what the interviewer will ask next. Don’t make claims on knowledge or experience you don’t have. Prepare answers for every type of application or job duty that you have done. Also do this for all the job requirements listed for the prospective job. If you don’t know or have no experience in a particular area answer 'No, however…' and continue to explain that you have experience in a similar area (if you do) and provide details or otherwise say that you are a fast learner and welcome the challenge. Give an example where you had no experience and how you mastered the skill or task in a short time.
