Interview tips:

Haven't made that follow-up call after an interview?

Follow up after an interview: How long should you wait after an interview to Follow Up? You should follow up five business days after your job interview if you haven't heard feedback from the employer. Or, if the employer provided an expected date for feedback after the interview, follow up one business day after that date has passed.

Do You Have Any Questions? (3 SMART QUESTIONS You MUST ASK At The End Of Your Job Interview!)

JOB INTERVIEW TIP 1:

  • Do not do what the majority of interview candidates do, and say: “No thank you. I don’t have any questions. You answer everything during the interview!”

JOB INTERVIEW TIP 2:

  • Remember, this is your opportunity to show the interviewer you care about their organization! Because if you care about their organization, as opposed to simply caring about yourself and what you will get from the job, you will SIGNIFICANTLY increase your chances of getting hired!

QUESTIONS TO ASK AT THE END OF A JOB INTERVIEW So, when the interviewer says to you, that’s the end of the interview, do you have any questions for us, ask these 3 questions:

(only case study examples)

QUESTION 1. How do you see the company evolving over the next five years? (This is a brilliant question to ask at the end of your job interview because it shows you are planning on staying working for them for many years into the future.)

QUESTION 2. What could I do in this role to help you achieve your vision? (This is a great question it shows you are not just interested in a paycheck! You genuinely want to help them be successful, and that’s 100% appealing to any Hiring Manager!)

QUESTION 3. What’s the culture like within the company? (This is a powerful question to ask because it shows the interviewer you are aware of how important a positive workplace culture is to the success of a company. It’s a clever question that demonstrates you are a forward-thinking employee!)

Richard McMunn will teach you how to respond to the interview question, DO YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS FOR US?

📣: Alicia Kelly! for her post: The interview went well until I asked this question "She asked the interviewer what is the work-life balance i.e., organization's culture like for the full-time employees?" #advice #wordsofadvice

HOW TO DESCRIBE YOURSELF IN AN INTERVIEW!

In this video, you will learn how to describe yourself in an interview. How you describe yourself at the start of your job interview is going to be the difference between a pass and a fail. If you don’t get your interview off to a flying start, you are unlikely to pass!

This video COVER THE FOLLOWING 3 THINGS DURING THIS JOB INTERVIEW

  1. I will explain why the interviewer is asking you to describe yourself and, more importantly, what they want to hear in your response.

  2. I will tell you the 5 most important words you should use when describing yourself in an interview that is guaranteed to impress the hiring manager.

  3. I will give you 3 brilliant example scripts you can use to describe yourself positively during your interview that will make you the stand-out candidate!

WHY IS THE INTERVIEWER ASKING YOU TO DESCRIBE YOURSELF, AND WHAT DO THEY WANT TO HEAR IN YOUR ANSWER?

The interviewer will or may ask you one of the following 3 questions right at the start of your job interview:

  • Tell me about yourself.
  • Introduce yourself.
  • How would you describe yourself?

Whichever question they ask you, this is where you need to describe yourself in a way that sets the rest of the interview up in a positive manner. If you don’t describe yourself in a way that the interviewer finds appealing, you will quickly lose confidence, and the interview could go down downhill rapidly.

THE INTERVIEWER IS ASKING YOU TO DESCRIBE YOURSELF FOR 2 REASONS:

REASON 1. When you describe yourself in an interview, it gives you the chance to talk about something you should know really well, and that is yourself! It allows you to get into the flow of the interview, it breaks the ice, and it helps you to create a positive first impression.

REASON 2. This is because the interviewer wants to quickly assess whether or not your skills, traits, and attributes are going to be a fit for their team and the role you have applied for.

So, if the interviewer thinks you can ADD VALUE to their company, they will definitely be interested in hiring you.

However, if the manner in which you describe yourself at the start of your interview is weak, and it is not aligned to their company values, or what they are looking for, the interview could be cut short!

Are Interviewers Rude or Just Testing You?

Here's how you can tell if your interviewer is treating you rudely or if they are testing you. Employers love to test candidates using online assessment tests, but sometimes they are testing you in the interview. They might seem impatient, rude, or challenge you and it's up to you how you respond. So this video is going to highlight some of the ways they might be testing you and how you can respond accordingly.

5 Dangerous Things to Avoid Saying In a Job Interview

This video will share with you five things you should never say in a job interview. You must be careful in a job interview to make sure you know what to say and what to avoid saying. Most people screw up their interviews by blurting out things they never should say and ruin their chances for moving farther in the interview process.

Some of the examples I used in this video or things I say might not be true for you, so if they are not true for you, I'm not telling you to lie. I want you to be truthful and at the same time, I don't want you to stick your foot in your mouth.

I always suggest avoiding saying negative things about your past boss or company. Even if your boss was terrible, I think it's better to find one honest, true and GOOD thing you can say about him/her.

If you walk into an interview and start trash-talking your boss, your interviewer might think that the problem is with you and not your boss. but like I said, even the worst people usually have one kind thing you can say about them.

  1. Don't talk badly about your company. Don’t talk bad about the people. Don't say that you didn't like working there; no matter how it comes up.

  2. A lot of candidates go in and they're so desperate to work at a job they'll say, “I'll do anything. It doesn't matter what it is; I'll do anything.” Now, these are usually people who are not employed right now (maybe they've been out of work for six to nine months, maybe even two years) and they are desperate for a job and they will do anything.
