Have hired hundreds of candidates from some of the most reputed institutes in India. Always prefer someone who does not waste time, is clear about what he / she is saying and does not beat around the bush. In this case a plain and simple "I am not proficient in this topic, but I am willing to learn" is the best answer

Faced the same situation once and replied, "Sir, currently I do not know sql but understanding that we are expected to have a good working knowledge of the same, I'm willing to put myself out there and learn it if my work profile requires it." Got the job and appreciation from the interviewer for my honesty. Just avoid a minute long lecture on how you don't know a topic, it can be said in the simplest of words.

I work for a US MNC and an interviewer too. Usually I am always on deadlines and have to rush to another meeting right after the interview. I would straightaway ask for a crisp answer if the interviewee tries this lengthy approach, and I won't think twice to reject the candidate at the moment without wasting a single more minute if she continues to beat around the bush. I love straight forward, crisp and honest answers.

[@mamabear7016]

I like a honest ‘don’t know’ in which case I test them in their expert skill to bring them onboard once they prove to be good enough in what they claimed to be good at, the test will establish a trust that they can pick up a new skill quickly. I don’t need to trust a twisted answer that is neither a yes/no.

I am interviewing people since past 4 years for their final round and absolutely okay when some once accept about not having knowledge. Rather since past 1 year I am observing that with such online tack ticks candidates are giving polished interviews but don't have skills for actual role and neither willing to learn further. More then clearing interview people should focus on skill building which is more important to retain and enjoy your work journey.

[@magnumburst1]

Usually people don't apply for roles in which they don't have a practical knowledge base. And if you list skills other than what the role needs be prepared to answer them. You could always say I'm in the learning phase and as my past experience has shown I'm a quick learner and can easily adapt. Give examplws of this. However since it wasn't part of the job role don't be too worried

As a medical student we always give always honest answers. The professors also know that no one knows everything. So better to say "no" if you don't know the answer. If you try to destract interviewer with wrong or point less answers then your impression will be bad.

[@chhavipuri2592]

In one of the interviews I was hired for, I was asked if I know anything about affiliate writing. I honestly stated that I know about it thereotically but have never written an affiliate content, but I am keen to learn about it. Then they asked what is affiliate marketing, and I gave a proper answer. Similarly, in the previous company I worked for, I was asked if I know how to design Facebook ad campaigns. I politely said I haven't done it practically, but would learn it for sure. So, it's always better to be honest and let the HR know you are an enthusiastic person, eager to learn different things.

[@aishwaryan1434]

Even with this long answer, you can get rejected if their main requirement is that particular skill, organizations prefer someone who already have those skills than someone on whom they have to invest time and money to train them. And if you answer that you are currently learning they will ask the level of knowledge if you are a beginner or intermediate, you will get straightly rejected if you are a beginner, if you answer intermediate they will ask questions and if you fail to answer then reject.

Just say you don't know and if given a chance you can certainly work as you are already working on related technologies. Although, even before that don't lie on your resume and read the job requirements carefully. If you have time and the skills you don't know are listed in the requirements, learn the basics or as much as you can before appearing for the interview. Tell them you haven't got a chance to work on that skill but you know the basics. If other skills you have claimed on your resume, you are able to answer the interview questions on them well then you should be good.

I have been to both sides.. but as an interviewer if someone gave me this big answer just to say no.. I am not going to be happy about it. I am usually ok with candidate saying he/she do not know about something once in an interview. Not more than that. But.. it is not a thumb rule.. depending on career level I may not expect "I do not know" answer to certain questions.

Instead asking for training, we could give a confidence that we can learn anything whichever is required for project.

If you don't know something you just tell them that's something I dont know. It's basic human interaction. What kind of interviews are these where you prepare like it's a school exam? If someone expects me to answer in a paragraph for a simple no, I won't join the company anyway. Can you imagine the briefs you will have to write at work!
