    Assistant Manager Interview Questions


    No matter what department or industry they’re in, an assistant manager has administrative,
    operational and managerial duties. They most commonly work in retail, restaurants, bars and food
    service, although the position can be found in all sectors.

    One thing to remember when hiring an assistant manager is that their skill set should be similar to
    the manager’s. You may occasionally hire junior candidates with a lot of potential rather than
    someone with years of experience as a Sales Assistant. But, when it comes to skills, they should
    be fully equipped (or at least have enough potential) to step into the manager’s shoes when
    needed. Include management interview questions reflecting both roles about technical expertise,
    industry-specific knowledge and soft skills.

    Important soft skills include organizational ability, communication, problem-solving and leadership.
    Use the following questions as a guide and listen to their answers carefully. They should also
    demonstrate that they understand the role’s importance and responsibility. The best Assistant
    Mangers will show a business acumen and strategic planning abilities.

    you do?

    slip, how would you handle this?
