Librarian Interview (with possible questions)

So I had my first interview today for a full time position. I think it went very well. I took along a small portfolio that included my resume, along with several examples of the signage that I do at my current job. This idea was suggested to me by two of my friends (one is a coworker at my current job) and it was definitely a success! They were extremely impressed with my creations!

Here are some of the interview questions if anyone is interested:

• What was the last book you read? Did you enjoy it? Why or Why not?
• How do you stay organized?
• Tell us something about yourself.
• Have you ever had a disagreement with a supervisor?
• Have you ever had a problem with a patron? A coworker? How did you handle both.                                  
• I was given a hypothetical question where several things were happening at once and I had to juggle them all professionally.
• What is your most proudest accomplishment? Whether is is professionally or personally?
• Is there any reason why you can work these certain hours?
• Why do you want this job? Why should we pick you over the other applicants?

For the last question, I was given 30 minutes to type an answer. I won't hear anything for a few weeks but I look at this as an experience to improve on my interviewing skills. (that's my positive outlook if I don't get the job lol)

The only question I expected was the one about what book I had read last, which was Incarceron by Catherine Fisher
