What is the biggest mistake you have made?
We do not want to talk about our mistakes as we feel embarrassed. It is a natural reaction.
However, we all make mistakes and there should not be any embarrassment about.
The key point is what did you learn from the mistake and you will not repeat this mistake again.
The interviewer is interested to know about your key learning.

Negotiation is an important life skill
Negotiation is also a game, the more you play and practice, the better you get. Learn and prepare negotiation to reduce anxiety. Like any other skill, it can be mastered.
· Negotiation skills are learnable · You need to know the concept & principles · You need to apply the principles & practice the game · You should get feedback after each negotiation to improve
Last but not the least, seek negotiation and don’t avoid it. When you do buy or sell an asset or join a new job, negotiations are part of the whole process. Prepare for negotiations and don't avoid.
Negotiation is an information game, a conversational dance where we exchange offers...back and forth…offers and counteroffers to benefit mutually.
