“Interview Question”

What Do You Find the Most Stressful About This Type of Role? This is another potential minefield that you should answer with care, rather than off the cuff. Interviewers are looking for examples that suggest you handle stress well. Your goal is to show that you do know how to manage stressful situations with grace.

How to Answer "What Do You Find the Most Stressful About This Type of Role?" A winning response might be: “It’s true that this role can be stressful, and I’ve certainly dealt with my share of it in previous positions. If I had to say what the biggest stressor is, I’d pinpoint timing issues. I’m a stickler for meeting deadlines and delivering to my team what I say I will – so when it comes to crunch time, I feel the pressure until I’ve crossed the finish line.” #AWU #disability #Interviewquestions

“Interview Question”

What Kind of Impact Do You Hope to Have in Your Next Role?

Hiring teams want to know what candidates can do for them, and this impact question gives you the perfect opportunity to impress them with your drive.

How to Answer "What Kind of Impact Do You Hope to Have in Your Next Role?" The specific type of impact you emphasize will depend on the specific industry or job you’re applying to. But in general, you can stress that you want to build on the skills you bring to the table and that you hope to leverage your experience from your last position to help the company achieve its goals.

For example: “One of my biggest goals that I plan to achieve with my next employer is to take all of my learnings from my career to date to create something big. The first part of my career has been about understanding as much as I can about the industry, and now I finally feel like I’m in the perfect place to have a significant impact in whatever key projects I’m working on.” #AWU #disability #Interviewquestions

"Interview Tip"

A Question NOT to ask during an Interview!

Can I Apply for Any Other Positions?

While this is a perfectly reasonable question, the interviewer may perceive it as a sign of low confidence or insecurity. It may show that you are indecisive about taking action, which could reflect poorly on your potential.

Instead, study all the possible opportunities available before applying to ensure that you will not have to ask this question at all. This will allow you to be fully prepared for the interview and respond to their questions with confidence. #AWU #disability #jobs #interviewtip

"Interview Tip"

Researching the company your interviewing with should go without saying. However, I want to remind you how important it is.

Never approach a company for an interview or confirmation without researching it. You need to become intimate with their website. Pay special attention to company news, quarterly, and annual reports, and investor information

Look up the company on Glassdoor, LinkedIn, and other forms of social media so you have a better idea of where you're headed. Interacting or contacting current or previous employees can also be helpful because you'll know how to appease the hiring employers. #AWU #disability #jobs #interviewtip

"Interview Question”

Why Do You Want to Work Here?

Hiring managers use this question to try to gauge a candidate's motives for seeking the opportunity. While your primary reason for applying may be financially motivated, this would not be the emphasis to share during the interview.

How to Answer "Why Do You Want to Work Here?"

Think of other reasons you chose to throw your hat in the ring at the specific organization. Maybe you like the company's culture that you read about online, or maybe you've heard from current employees that they love their jobs. If so, spend some time figuring out the best words to use to explain that.

Another good answer could tie back to your career interests. For example, if you're a marketer applying for an entry-level marketing position, you might focus on sharing what it is about the company that makes you feel this would be the right place to develop your career skills in your field. #AWU #disability #Interviewquestions
