Mastering the Interview


The job interview is your proving ground, the place where you must demonstrate why you are the best person for the job. Making that powerful statement that you’re the best of all the candidates requires the three Ps: Preparation, Presentation and Perception.

PREPARE PREPARE PREPARE

When you walk into an interview, the more prepared you are, the better the chances are that you’ll succeed. Memorize everything you put on your resume and cover letter and be prepared to explain each item. But you should also be ready to talk about more than just yourself. Get to know your future employer.

A very influential Director of Recruiting and Employment, emphasizes this point. “Your resume and application are fair game. Candidates should study themselves and the company with whom they’re interviewing.”

Read industry trade magazines, visit the company web site, and do a company search on Yahoo! Finance to find current news about your prospective employer. Be prepared to demonstrate what you know about the company and the industry.

Remember the better prepared that you are the better your chances of landing that job!!!

Good luck!!

Technology vs Personal Contact


I finally was able to meet someone I have been communicating via the telephone and email for a couple of years now. There is nothing better than to finally place a face to the voice on the other side of the telephone. Our meeting was one of the best meetings I have ever had. Electronic communications can only take relationships to a certain degree there is nothing better that the Face to Face contact.
