There are some questions your interviewer has no business asking, and this is one.  But while you may feel like answering, "none of your business, "  naturally you can't. Some interviewers ask this question on the chance you admit to something, but if not, at least they'll see how you think on your  feet. 

Some unprepared candidates, flustered by this question,  unburden themselves of guilt from their personal life or career, perhaps expressing regrets regarding a parent, spouse, child  etc. All such answers can be disastrous.

BEST ANSWER:  As with faults and weaknesses,  never confess a regret.  But don't seem as if you're stonewalling either.

Best strategy:  Say you harbor no regrets, then add a principle or habit you practice regularly for healthy human relations.

Example:  Pause for reflection, as if the question never occurred to you.   Then say, "You know, I really can't think of anything."  (Pause again, then add): "I would add that as a general management principle, I've found that the best way to avoid regrets is to avoid causing them in the first place.  I practice one habit that helps me a great deal in this regard.  At the end of each day, I mentally review the day's events and conversations to take a second look at the people and developments I'm involved with and do a doublecheck of what they're likely to be feeling.  Sometimes I'll see things that do need more follow-up, whether a pat on the back, or maybe a five minute chat in someone's office to make sure we're clear on things.whatever."

Selection Process

Selection is the process of choosing from a group of applicants those individuals best suited for a particular
position. Most managers recognize that employee selection is one of their most difficult, and most important,
business decisions. This process involves making a judgment -not about the applicant, but about the fit
between the applicant and the job by considering knowledge,skills and abilities and other characteristics required to perform the job Selection procedures are not carried out through standard pattern and steps in this. Process can vary from organization to organization some steps performed and considered important by one organization can be skipped by other organization.
Environmental Factors Affecting the Selection Process A permanent, standardized screening process could greatly simplify the selection process. However, development of such a process even if it were possible and desirable would not eliminate deviations to meet the unique needs of  particular situation.

Legal Considerations
Legislation, executive orders, and court decisions have a major impact on human resource management. It is important for hiring managers to see the relationship between useful and legally defensible selection tools.

Speed of Decision Making
The time available to make the selection decision can have a major effect on the selection process. Closely following selection policies and procedures can provide greater protection against legal problems; however, there are times when the pressure of business will dictate that exceptions be made.

Organizational Hierarchy
Different approaches to selection are generally taken for filling positions at different levels in the organization.

Applicant Pool
The number of applicants for a particular job can also affect the selection process. The process can be truly
selective only if there are several qualified applicants for a particular position. The number of people hired for a particular job compared to the individuals in the applicant pool is often expressed as a selection ratio.

Type of Organization
The sector of the economy in which individuals are to be employed private,  governmental, or not-forprofit can also affect the selection process.

Probationary Period
Many firms use a probationary period that permits evaluating an employee's ability based on performance. This may be either a substitute for certain phases of the selection process or a check on the validity of the process.

Selection Criteria
Mostly the selection of applicant depends upon the
following factors or criterions.
1. EDUCATION
2. COMPETENCIES
3. EXPERIENCE
4. SKILLS AND ABILITIES
5. PERSONAL CHARACTERISTICS

Applicant who is best fit should be hired instead of hiring a person with extra ordinary skills it means right person for right job should be hired person who is over or under qualified for the particular job will not be able to adjust in the organization.

STEPS IN THE SELECTION PROCESS
The selection process typically begins with the preliminary interview; next, candidates complete the application for employment. They progress through a series of selection tests, the employment interview, and reference and background checks. The successful applicant receives a company physical examination and is employed if the results are satisfactory. Several external and internal factors impact the selection process, and the manager must take them into account in making selection decisions. Typically selection process consists of the following steps but it is not necessary that all organization go through all these steps as per requirement of the organization some steps can be skipped while performing the selection process.
