Hi, Please can anyone share possible interview questions for an HR Advisor position.

I had an exit interview recently where the employee said: "The job was not the problem." It was the team culture. That stayed with me. We spend a lot of time talking about pay, workload, recruitment and retention. Yet so many people leave because of how they felt every day at work. Have you ever left a role because of the culture rather than the job itself?
Someone asked me recently: "What actually creates a good workplace culture?" My answer? I do not think it is values posters. I do not think it is free coffee. I do not think it is engagement events. I think it is how people are treated on an ordinary Tuesday when nobody is watching. What would your answer be?
Just received another rejection because my previous salary was “higher than the advertised range.” So let me get this straight: Companies don’t want to pay experienced professionals what they’re worth in this economy, yet when we apply for roles below our previous pay grade to stay employed, our past salary is suddenly used against us. Experience, education, and adaptability should not become barriers to employment. The hiring system truly needs to evolve.
The typical one: Can you give an example of a difficult employee relations situation you've handled and how you resolved it?" This is your chance to show them your skills. Good luck!
Thank you
My top 3: Can you provide an overview of your experience in HR and your specific expertise? How do you ensure compliance with relevant employment laws and regulations in your HR practices? How do you manage competing priorities and meet deadlines in a fast-paced HR environment?
Thank you
Maybe something along the lines of "Can you give an example of a difficult employee situation you have resolved? How did you handle it?" "Describe your role in conducting employee onboarding and orientation programs." or even "Can you explain your familiarity with HRIS systems and other HR software/tools?"
Thank you
