Job Interview - 4 Ways to See Yourself as Job Interviewers Do


  • I have been told 1-2 weeks after the managers meet - and they called and offered me a on the way home. And asked that I come back for the next day for the formal proposal contigent upon my background check. Funny thing, is I did not get the job because the background check included a credit check which I failed miserably at the time. On another occasion I was interviewed over the phone and invited to orientation and training after I applied some 3-4 months earlier!!!

    Ask yourself the same question if you were doing the hiring. You hire when *YOU* get good and ready. They do what is expedient for them and their business. The rule of thumb is everything in life is negotiable except birth and death. Make them good and ready!!

    And the best of luck to you!!!

  • I would not but myself in a position to have to guess. Near the end of the interview when it is your turn to ask questions, ask the person what and when is the next step to obtaining the position and then follow their direction to the Tee. It is also good to send a thank you note to anyone that took the time to interview you, proper manners can make the difference between two equally qualified candidates

  • It depends on the hiring manager. some jobs call right away, some of the employers wait for you to call. i usually wait 3-4 days and if i havent heard i call them. it shows aggression and drive and many employers are impressed by it. It makes you stand out

  • I have been told by many people that it could take up to two weeks for and employer to get back to you.
