How To Interview the Interviewer?

How To Interview the Interviewer?

As the interview comes to a close, one of the final questions you may be asked is "What can I answer for you?" Have interview questions of your own ready to ask. You aren't simply trying to get this job - you are also interviewing the employer to assess whether this company and the position are a good fit for you. Interview Questions to Ask: 

• How would you describe the responsibilities of the position? 
• How would you describe a typical week/day in this position? 
• Is this a new position? If not, what did the previous employee go on to do? 
• What is the company's management style? 
• Who does this position report to? If I am offered the position, can I meet him/her? 
• How many people work in this office/department? •How much travel is expected? 
• Is relocation a possibility? 
• What is the typical work week? Is overtime expected? 
• What are the prospects for growth and advancement? 
• How does one advance in the company? 
• Are there any examples? 
• What do you like about working here? 
• What don't you like about working here and what would you change? 
• Would you like a list of references? 
• If I am extended a job offer, how soon would you like me to start? 
• What can I tell you about my qualifications? 
• When can I expect to hear from you? 
• Are there any other questions I can answer for you? Interview Questions NOT to Ask: 
• What does this company do? (Do your research ahead of time!) 
• If I get the job when can I take time off for vacation? (Wait until you get the offer to mention prior commitments) 
• Can I change my schedule if I get the job? (If you need to figure out the logistics of getting to work don't mention it now...) 
• Did I get the job? (Don't be impatient).

Interview Questions You May Be Asked (Part 1)

Interview Questions You May Be Asked (Part 1)

Why do you want this job? Think carefully about this question. Stress the positive aspects which have attracted you to applying for this position. Do not mention the negative aspects of your current job or the job in question. What qualities do you think will be required for this job? Their advertisement for the job may help you a little bit, but you should also think of the other qualities that may be required. 

These may include leadership ability, supervisory skills, communication skills, interpersonal skills, problem solving, analytical skills, etc. What can you contribute? This is your chance to shine. Tell them about your achievements in your previous position(s) which are relevant to the new position you are applying for. 

Why do you want to work for this company?Emphasize the positive reasons why you want to join their company, but avoid aspects such as more money or shorter hours. These would not endear you to a prospective employer. What do you know about this company? This is your chance to impress the interviewer with your knowledge of their company. 

Give them a run down of their products/services, sales figures, news, company figures, customers, etc. What interests you about our product (or service)?Again, your research into the company should aid you in answering this question. What can we (the new company) offer that your previous company cannot offer? Tread carefully here! Again do not mention money. Stress opportunities for personal growth, new challenges, etc. You have not done this sort of job before. 

How will you cope/succeed? Say that you are the sort of person who aims to succeed at everything you do and that you are very determined and will do whatever it takes to get the job done. Why should we employ you? The answer to this question will be based on your previous experience and achievements which relate to the company. 

At the end you could add that you think there is a good fit between you and the job, and do ask the interviewer for their opinion. How long do you think it would be before you were making a significant contribution to the team/company? If you think that you could contribute from day one then say so. Then turn the question round on them and say how soon would they expect it. 

How ambitious are you? Would you compete for my job?Depending on the position you are applying for you may want to sound fairly ambitious, but do not look as if you are after the interviewer's position. What do you like and dislike about the job we are discussing? Likes: stress things such as a new challenge or the opportunity to bring fresh experience to the company. Dislikes: Imply there is nothing to dislike about the job, which is why you are so interested. 

Why did you choose a career in …? Be positive about your reasons. If you have changed careers make a logical argument as to why you did so. Why are you changing careers? This question will only be asked if you are making a radical change in your career. Always stress the positive aspects of the change rather than the negative aspects of your previous career - you do not want to come across as someone who is moving just because you hate your old career. 

Say why you think you will be good in the new career - this should come from your experience and achievements, stress the transferable skills you have, such as leadership ability, etc. How much does your last job resemble the one you are applying for? What are the differences? The interviewer is trying to see how well you would fit in to the position you are applying for. So you should stress the similarities rather than the differences. 

When it comes to discussing the differences it will help your case if you can show that either you have done something similar in the past or that you can quickly pick up the new skills. What do you think of the last company you worked for?You should stress the positive aspects of your last company saying that they were a good company to work for. Tell them about the training you received or the work related experience you gained. 

Why did you join your previous company? Did they live up to your expectations? Why are you leaving now? Always be positive about your reasons for joining and leaving a company. Be very careful that you do not say anything negative about your present employer. If you do, the new company will wonder what you will say about them when you leave. 

You might want to stress that you are looking for a new challenge and that you feel that the company who is interviewing you fits the bill! Explain the organizational structure in your last company and how you fitted into it? This sort of question may be used to find out whether your old job is at a comparable level to your new job. 

If the new job being discussed would be a step up the ladder you will need to show that you are ready for a more demanding position. You may be able to show that you have already had many of the responsibilities and the necessary skills which would be required for the next step.

Dressing for the Job Interview

Dressing for the Job Interview

Well, your resume worked and now you have an appointment for the all important job interview. You have done your homework. You are confident that you can answer anything the interviewer throws at you. Finally the big day arrives and the final important choice must be made. 

What should you wear? It is no secret that how you look has everything to do with the first impression you make. A first impression is made in the first 27 seconds. If you are too formal in your appearance, you might give the impression of being rigid and stuffy. If you are too casual, you may send the signal that you do not take the interview or the job very seriously. 

Begin by talking to employees of your potential new employer and find out what the dress code is and how seriously management takes it. If you can't find out this information, you should choose clothing that is professional in the impression it gives. If you do not already own clothing that will work on an interview, you should go to a store where you can get good advice from the sales person. 

Be prepared to have the clothes tailored. No human being completely fits in clothes that are off the rack. To make the best impression the clothes must be altered to fit and accent your best features. The following ideas can never be neglected: Look clean and neat. Make sure that your hair is done appropriately. Women - do not wear wild hairdo's Men - get a trim of head and facial hair. Do not wear a perfume or cologne as many people are allergic. 

Bathing with a good quality bath soap will leave a light scent. You will be nervous and a gentle scent can mask the perspiring you may be doing. An unscented antiperspirant can be used. Cover any tattoos and avoid gaudy jewelry. 

Definitely limit pierced jewelry to ears only. Do not wear nose or tongue jewelry MEN Wear a suit or sport jacket with color coordinated trousers The color should be neutral or dark - blue, black or gray is best Wear a tie - even if you will never wear one after you get the job Shoes should be leather - clean and polished - black is best Make sure your nails are trimmed and that they are clean. 

WOMEN Wear a classic suit or a simple dress with a jacket. This is not a time to be provocative or sexy. Some appropriate colors are navy blue, black, dark green, dark red, burgundy, or gray. Dress in a higher style that the position calls for but do not attempt to out dress everyone there. Avoid wearing clothes that are tight, revealing or trendy. 

It may be the very latest fashion but it will not impress the interviewer Fingernails should be trimmed to a length that doesn't leave an observer wondering how you keep from stabbing yourself. The polish should be closer to a color your mom might wear than to a color that your kid sister would go for. Even after you are successful in getting the job, you should continue to pay attention to your wardrobe. 

Interviewing for that first job is only the beginning in the role clothing will play in your career. You should regularly add pieces made of high quality, long wearing fabrics. It is best to buy separates that you can mix and match with the pieces that you already own. Each piece you buy adds to the variety of looks you can achieve. You may ask why this is important? 

The reason is that even after you have the job you sought, you might like to be considered for advancement and promotion. The impression you leave on the job every day will be added to your performance when the boss looks around for someone to promote.

Top 10 Things to Get Your Resume Noticed in 2013

Top 10 Things to Get Your Resume Noticed in 2013

Within the thousands of resumes we have seen and worked from, we have found some strange common mistakes made by a job seeker. To avoid these mistakes: 

1. Have a resume that is results-focused and does not just list job descriptions. 
2. Other than your contact information, be sure not to include personal information on your resume. It is not appropriate. 
3. Be sure your resume is about one to three pages in length. It will engage the reader if you do not tell them everything. It will also leave things to talk about in the interview. 
4. Only put your cell phone number on your resume if are confident that when you answer it you will be able to go through a phone interview with no problem. 
5. When using job boards to list your resume, change a few words and re-post it to the job board(s) everyday so you can be at the top of the list of qualified candidates. 
6. Be sure you include a cover letter when there is a person you will be sending your resume to, unless they tell you it is not necessary. 
7. Call and get a name so that when you send a cover letter it will go to a specific person. Also it will help when you call to follow up. 
8. Always confirm that your resume was received when you submit a resume to a company or person. It is a great reason to make contact and can make a huge difference. 
9. Get a business card when you go in for the interview so that you have the information of the person you spoke with. It makes sending the thank you letter easier. 
10. After an interview, be sure that you hand-write or e-mail a personalized thank you letter that expresses your interest and qualifications again. Utilizing these ideas will make your job search more enjoyable and successful.
