Yes, part of the questions will normally be a repetition because in the face2face interview, you'll most probably be interviewed by your dept head/ direct superior/ Manager/ GM etc. The HR's job during the phone interview was to filter applicants. Among the pool the called, perhaps only a few whom she considered 'able' to handle the task - and one of them could be you.
Since your 'opponent' next round is a different group of interviewer then do expect the same questions. Review what you answered today and check where you could fine tune some of your replies. And expect more challenging questions (the phone interview was basically some standard/ basic ques to check whether you're aware of certain things etc) in actual interview. Also be careful of your body language and SMILE all the time. That's the best charm anyone can pull
The phone interview is conducted by a manager that is looking for new hire for his team and said that if I got the job I'm going to be under his supervision (I guess that makes him my potential boss?) and not a HR representative.
When the HR representative called me to inform about the face to face interview, she did inform me that the interviewer is the same person who conducted the phone interview.
So if both interviews are conducted by the same interviewer, any chance that he's going to ask the same question?
Something piqued my interest about the scheduled time for the interview. My slot was at 4:30pm, and the HR representative told me to just go there and tell the receptionist to inform the interviewer that I have arrived. I thought usually they will group all the candidates to one single day and the interviewer will standby in the interview room. Sounds like I'm the only one he's going to interview tomorrow.
