Questions
1. Are you happy with your computer at work? If not, why?
Sample Answer: I'd like a faster computer because my current one sometimes malfunctions and slows down my work by 10%.
2. Do you prefer using a desktop computer or a laptop for your work? Why?
Sample Answer: I prefer using a laptop because it’s portable and allows me to work from different locations. However, when I’m at the office, I use a desktop because the screen is larger and more comfortable for long hours of work.
3. What do you look for when choosing a new computer for work?
Sample Answer: I look for a computer with a fast processor, enough memory (RAM), and a large storage capacity. I also consider the screen size and battery life if I need to work on the go.
