Interview questions worth rehearsing

With the thing the interviewer is actually listening for

Walk me through how you run a cycle count program.

Describe count frequency by ABC class, blind counts, recount thresholds, and how variances get posted. Structure is what they are listening for.

You find a 40-unit variance on a fast-moving SKU. How do you investigate?

Show a trail: recent receipts, picks, transfers, returns, and adjacent locations for mis-slots. Name the usual suspects before blaming theft.

What inventory accuracy levels have you maintained?

Give a real number and the method behind it. Accuracy in the high nineties with a cycle count program is a credible, strong answer.

How do you handle pressure to just adjust a count and move on?

Say you post adjustments only with documented cause, because untraced adjustments hide process failures. Integrity of the record is the job.

What WMS or ERP systems have you worked in?

Name them and describe one inventory process you improved inside the system, like slotting, count scheduling, or variance reporting.

Describe a process change you made that reduced shrink or errors.

Pick one change, explain the root cause it fixed, and quantify the improvement. One concrete story outweighs a list of duties.
