Job Interview Questions: First Job Interview, help?

I have a job interview today after school at a small retail store in the mall. Anyways, I was just wondering what type of questions the interviewers typically ask? And any tips of what else to do would be fantastic. Thanks so much!!

Job Interview Advice



Recommended Answer:
Be calm, you have talent and skills and you will need to represent yourself well

Be sure to have a few questions about them (you are interviewing them too to see if you are a good match for each other)

Be confident and if it goes well, make sure you ask for the job or at least find out what their time line is for telling you their decision

Be well dressed, being overdressed with a job is much less embarrassing/painful than being underdressed without a job

Job Interview Training For Managers - Will's Story



Recommended Answer:
Dress as though you want the manager's job. I agree you should go for darker colors. Wear a suit or if wearing a skirt or dress also wear a jacket. No sweaters, no cleavage, no bold jewelry. Wear lower heels; no spikes and don't forget to wear hose even if just for this interview. Wear your hair in a conservative fashion; no ponytails, no excess curls. Sophistication is the key here. If you have tats, make sure they're covered. Only one ring per hand and a simple watch and bag should complete the outfit. It isn't about the job for which you're interviewing, it's about your overall presentation.

From the Eyes of a Job Interviewer


  • 21, 16 or 42, you always want to dress professional for an interview. I even dress professionally when I pick up an application to let them know I mean business.

    A button down shirt with dress pants or anything you would consider business attire (not a pants suit or anything like that) just nice. And not to revealing.

    I'm 24 and have been serving and bartending for 9 years, my boyfriend is a restaurant manager and people don't think so, but the way you dress for an interview is more important than you interveiw itself.

  • Dress professionally. Black or brown dress pants, white dress shirt, black dress shoes and tie your hair up in a pony tail. All jobs that require you to work with food will tell you to tie your hair up when you work so its better to do it before and show them that you suit the job physically and then in your interview that you suit the job personally!

  • The key is to look pulled together. Always dress professionally, whatever the job is. This website has loads of options for good work and interview outfits: www.wearittowork.co.uk
    Good luck!

Job Interview Questions: Had a job interview-----followed up once, should I do it again?

I applied for a job, then after a week or so, I emailed asking the status of my app and was given an interview! I had the interview last week; I sent a thank you email and recieved a reply Monday saying she would let me know by the end of the week. It is now Thursday night (they are closed Sat and Sun). Should I send an email asking about my status or would this bug the employer?

Job Interview Cheat Sheet - Top 6 Questions & Mental Strategies



Recommended Answer:
I do not think it would hurt your chances at all to follow up. Some times people get very busy and overwhelmed and forget to do things like letting you know the status. You could just send them a polite email letting them know you were following up. It shows initiative on your part. Your sending them a polite email could actually remind them in the event they are needing to follow up with someone else. So yes, just send a short and polite email.

Good luck!

Tips to a Job Interview Presentation to Impress Your Hiring Manager


  • I've worked in employment services for 7 years now and I would recommend that you contact your interviewer at the beginning of the following week, Monday or Tuesday, seeking an update. Don't contact her before the deadline she gave you expires. Employers are busy and have to deal with changing priorities all the time filling the position you interviewed for may not currently be their current top priority - it happens. You may feel like you are being a bug to the employer but be persistent until you get a response. If they want you it won't hurt your chances of getting the job. If they don't want you being persistent change anything and will get you your answer and allow you to continue your job search.

  • In this particular instance, when you have already followed up, you should trust the interviewer to get back to you. Sometimes, "I'll get back to you by the end of the week", means "I don't have the guts to tell you, NO". And if you continue to lay on the pressure, you're wasting your time.

  • If it was me I would call them everyday to check the status of the application and interview thats if you didn't hear back. Its good to be persistent and aggressive when it comes to looking for a job.

  • If they want you they'll be in touch.

Job Interview Questions: Which one of these is better for a job interview at a chain restaurant?

Keep in mind, it's around 93 degrees here today.

1. Short sleeve black shirt, nice khaki shorts and black gladiators
2 dress with black cotton on the bottom and grey sparkly on the top with black flats... I'm thinking that this may e a little too dressy, because this interview is only for red robin. Nothing too fancy.

Help?!

      Self-Speaking Lies About Job Interviews


      • Then, I guess it is time for you to go to work:) It is normal to be nervous, but here are some things you can do to relax. Take a deep breath and relax....do this several times. Also, you can try to keep occupied this week and not focus so much on it. You could also do some mock interviews. If you need to practice with what you want to say and do on the job interview this would help. If you have a friend or someone who could "practice" interview you, then that would be great. Have them ask you random questions and be prepared to answer. This will also help prepare you for the real interview. If you should be able to go to a gym or just even do some walking that will help the stress. And..give you some time to think. If you need a good laugh--here is what I said on my interview at Wendy's--my first real paying job. =)) Question: Why do you want to work at Wendy's? Me: Well, I love their customer service and I love the Big Macs! lol

      • deep breathes, think happy thoughts.

      • take a few deep breathes and know that everythings gonna be ok

      • have a few drinks before you go

      • be yourself!!!
        use good dialect :)
        and do not lie about anything!!
        take a few breaths you will do great!!

      The 11 Cardinal Mistakes of Job Interviews



      Recommended Answer:
      "If you are not professionally attired, you won't get the job, even if you are the most qualified," says image consultant Sandy Dumont. "Always dress better than required for an interview. Never dress down, because it is insulting to the other person. It says, 'I don't have to impress you; I dress for my own comfort.' When you dress to impress, they get it, and you will stand out.

        Working in Retirement: Job Interview Preparation

          www. cashcrate. com/1328967

        • Dress appropriately
          Go in there knowing a good amount about the company
          Ask questions to show you're interested but not too much
          For some reason they get pissed when you say "um"
          Don't sit down before the person giving the interview

        • 1. Ask Intelligent questions
          2. Research the company first.
          3. Tell them why they should hire you.
          4. Do not just sit there and give short answers. Look alive.

        • Just one tip: wear a conservative outfit. Limit the jewelery and please remove any marks from your shoes. I am attempting to transfer my male rules to a female interview. The idea is make the focus on you and not a loud dress or a plaid sports coat, in the case of a male.
