Job Interview Questions: Tips for first job interview?

I have a job interview, I'm so nervous. I'm 16 if that matters. I've been applying for jobs for months, & finally I've got an interview. Does anyone have any tips? Questions they may ask. Also I have something called OJE interview, does anyone no what this is.

Job Interview Success

Recommended Answer:
Here are a few suggestions that might help.

Sit down with your parents and do a practice interview. Your parents have a good idea of what will be asked.

Dress to impress. Even if it is a low quality job, dress like you want the job. I will always hire someone dressed better then the other.

Be honest. It is better to be honest and open with your interviewer.

Identify qualities that would make you good at this job. Sell those qualities to your interviewer. You more than likely will be asked "scenario question". Use these opportunities to sell your strengths.

Dont be nervous.

Well I hope you do well. Best of luck.

Job Interview Advice Everyone Can Use

• To add a few more comments, try to go on the company's website and do a little research about the company and the products/services they sell. This will be especially impressive considering that you're only 16. Be positive, don't discuss your personal life (unless asked), tell them that your salary is "negotiable," and don't tell them you want the job because you "need the money"- act like you want the job because the position and the company interest you. Also express a desire to learn and to gain experience.
  
  Good luck!!

Job Interview Questions: Construction job interview possible questions?

I have an interview to work on a road crew for the government over the summer (pretty decent job for a student, like $15 an hour). I have no experience in construction but the job description said there was no experience needed. I've had interviews in the past and have been fairly successful but those were for food service and sales jobs.

What possible questions could they ask? As an aside, what might I wear for the interview?

10 Tips For A Successful Physical Therapy Job Interview

Recommended Answer:
If you have a chance watch 'What Not To Wear.' They have great ideas. My idea of an ideal interview outfit would be. A neutral skirt-- such as a brown or inconspicuous pattern. As for the top I would choose a pretty floral print or a button down and wear a nice blazer over it. If it's too hot, though, I would wear a button down shirt that you could unbutton with a camisole underneath. As for shoes... a kitten heal slingback would be good or fancy sandal. And keep your makeup natural and you hair professionally styled. e.g. A bun or straight locks. Don't go overboard on jewelry. Oh and good luck!

Thank You For The Job Interview - Are You Sending a Follow Up Letter?

Recommended Answer:
Good question. I would still go to the interview because practice is very important. You never know which job will be better without exploring them both. Also, you haven't been offered the other job. If you put all of your eggs in one basket you could end up with nothing. For all you know, the job you think is better will actually offer less and could have other issues.

In this competitive market keep your options open. I call your situation "a win-win". lol

How to Answer Job Interview Questions Correctly and Get Hired

• When you are required to give a specific reason for your absence, make it as vague as possible.
  When you have to cancel past the normal working hours, leave a simple message and explain it on the phone the next day.
  If you have taken another position, call and let them know that you have accepted a position somewhere else with another company. Be sure to thank them for their consideration and wish them success. In this way, you have built a professional record should you decide to apply for a position again.


• call them and tell them that you dont feel like its the right job for you, and you may have a more promising prospect
