Behavior descriptive interview (BDI) questions have been used by human resource professionals for over forty years, for many different types of interviews. A behavior descriptive question asks about a past behavior or experience to determine what future behavior will be like.
For example: BDI questions include: "tell me about a time when you had a conflict with a co-worker". Or "tell me about the management style that you prefer". Or "tell us about your time management or organizational skills". BDI questions should be answered by referring to specific experiences you have had in the past. Include a brief summary of the events, and the results of the action that you took to resolve the situation. Be sure to highlight a special skill that you possess. When answering a BDI question, stay focused on the story, don't make up anything, and try to always have a positive outcome for the past behavior that you select. BDI questions are very popular for use in initial screening interviews.
