The main activities carried out during the job interview is that we will get a lot of questions from the interviewer. Do not interrupt the interviewer’s questions before they finish the question.

Listen to the interviewer’s question first carefully. Discover the main point of the question to avoid an answer that does not connect. If it’s less clear, it alright to ask about question point to the interviewer, but not too often. The goal is to perform a check that what the interviewer wants to know.

Once clear, give a short answer, solid, straightforward and not too many with ornate sentences which do not relate to the question. After answering it would not worse if we ask back to the interviewer whether our answers enough for them or still need to be clarified, with a polite tone of course.

So the key is we have to think before giving answers. The time needed to think to be adapted to whether difficult or not the question. Try every question can be answered in seconds, do not think too long.
