Job Interview Questions: Would this question be inappropriate at a job interview?

I am interviewing for a support level position with a small investment management company. On their website, they have bios of all the higher-up people, but they do not have anything on their support staff. Some of their competitors include all the principals and their support staff. This shows me that their support staff means a lot to the company as well. I would like to ask this company why they decided not to include their support staff on their website. Should this question be avoided?

The Ten Rules For a Great Job Interview

• That's definitely not something I would bring up in an interview. There may be a very good reason why they aren't up there. Personally, I would insist that I not be included in a web site where anyone can googlestalk me. It's not a commentary on anything whether a company does or does not. It sounds like an ego issue.


• What is the idea behind wanting to know? Are you just wanting to gauge how much they appreciate the employees? The best way to get that info is to ask if there's any more about the support staff you can get on the internet before the interview, but if not, don't take it as a bad thing.
  
  You could always get a pretty good idea of the level of employee appreciation by noting the general atmosphere. Ask if you might get a quick tour while you're on the interview, if there's time "I'd love to look around, do you think we might be allowed to do that?" and if so, look at people's desks. If there are lots of personal touches and the general atmosphere is cheerful, you can be pretty certain that morale is good.


• Yes, that is something that was decided my upper management. It's really mute, why they are not on their website. Maybe they have a large turn over? no need to place all their employees bios out there for everyone to read? It could be complicated, to say the least? legal issues?
  
  Good luck with that interview! Remember to wear interview type clothing, look them in the eye and shake their hand. :)


• No don't ask that question. Also just because their competitors include their support staff in their website doesn't mean they value them that much but just that they know it looks good to do that. You will only know how a company treats their support staff by working there. I once worked as a support person at a major well known world wide accounting firm who are perceived as great employers...well, they are great if you are an accountant but they treated their support staff like insignificant specks of dirt....but they had a wonderful website!!


• I wouldn't ask. I think it is pretty obvious.
  
  Imagine if you were checking out the website of a coffee shop (because you wanted to scope it out before going) and they put up the bios of all the employees working there. Who cares? But I would understand having the bios perhaps of the owner who runs it and maybe his or her partner. But bios of the support staff?
  
  Some companies might do it, but it is just not necessary. In fact, I would prefer working for a company that would not do that because it is almost a little cheesy.
  
  Some other companies may do it to invoke more of a "community" feel. But personally I think it is a little silly. In your position, I would be glad to work for a company with a more serious image.
  
  Regards.

• Yes, I would avoid that. It serves no purpose for you to know that information and might make the interviewer feel as though you were a trouble maker and attempting to put him/her on the hot seat. IF this interviewer felt this, to any extent at all, you would most likely not go further in the interviewing process.


• I would not ask that in an interview, and I don't think that's indicative of anything.


• No. Do not ask that question. The answer to that question will not give you the information that you desire. It's just a website. Taking a tour, meeting people, being observant of the atmosphere in the workplace would be a much better indicator of whether or not people are happy and appreciated. The average length of time that a person has worked at the company is also an excellent indicator of job satisfaction.
  
  If you pose that question I would have to guess at what your intention was. I would guess that you may not be a "team player" and be overly concerned with yourself and with self-recognition. I also would think that you are "critical" and have made a negative observation about my company. Your question could be misinterpreted. So in this case I would not ask. After you are hired and have worked there 6 months, you could inquire then if you felt it was appropriate.

I have been looking for a job for months and am trying to figure out why its so important that I strongly agree or disagree on an application for a gas station! Have these test really improved the quality of the workers hired? Or is it just a way of seeing how many hoops you can get the person who wants this job to jump through?

Job Interviews - How to Quickly and Easily Succeed at Them

Recommended Answer:
Some businesses have policies that are used nationwide or statewide to determine the ability of an employee. If they can't pass this test, they don't hire them per policies. The lazy workers probably were able to pass the test and reverted to their original positions of laziness. If you are looking for something to supplement your income a data collecting business will work for you. Data entry is a huge business. You can help the government where all your asked to do is input 10 plates per month, should take about 10-15 minutes. With that you tell others about the opportunity and get a residual income from it.You would be placed in a position that will make you successful. If you want more info msg. me.

Job Interview - Best Prep Questions

• The only point I can see in having you do a test like that in a job is to see what things you are good at. I know they give them at colleges and universities to help a student decide what they want to major in. When you take these tests enough you can actually mold your answers to be whatever they want to see from you. That is the unfortunate part of all of it.

ive had a stressful day and i need to relax a little. ive never had a job interview so i dont know if they test you for anything like alcohol. am i okay to drink tonight if my interview isnt for another 15 hours?

How to Shine in Audit Jobs Interviews

Recommended Answer:
As long as you don't over imbibe so you don't end up with a hangover you should be fine. I have never been to an interview and been drug tested, that will come with an offer of employment. And there is no reason they would test you for alcohol, even if you are under 21. Just don't show up with a hangover or you won't get to that next step to even worry about it. And don't smell like a brewery.

Tips to Boost Your Job Interview Confidence

• No, it isn't a good idea to drink the day before an interview. You want to have a very good impression on yourself and for your employer. Many policies in the contract of the job you apply for say that they can always run a test of drugs/alcohol on you without warning, and by signing your name or saying "I agree", you're obliging for them to do so.
  
  I suggest you don't drink. There are other ways to relax other than to drink. This includes watching TV (your favorite TV shows if you have any), any hobby you like doing, talking to friends/family for advice on what to say and how to dress professionally for the interview. I understand that an interview can be stressful and quite intimidating, however stay "sober" until the time comes. But understand that depending on the company you're being considered for, they can ask you to take a drug and alcohol test. If you refuse though, they may not hire you or drop you out of employment.
  
  Try the above suggestions if it helps. I hope my advice helps you as well and good luck!


• 1 oz of alcohol per hour is what your body processes. 1 beer, 1 glass of wine, 1 shot. If you're only having a few you should certainly be clear by then. The question is making sure you are alert, on time and ready for your interview. They won't test you on the spot. If there is a drug test, it would probably be given to you another day, at the very least, they will give you a form to take to a specific clinic and a time frame to get it done.


• you should be fine as long as you don't overdo it. your body can only hold off one beer an hour so use that to your best ability! also alcohol stays in the system for a month so be careful and drink reaponiabily and yea you should be fine as long as you don't get too crazy


• Unless you plan on having more than 15 drinks. I never heard of a job where they would drug test just for an interview anyway. Most don't even drug test when you're actually hired.


• I wouldn't chance it. Are you even old enough to drink legally?
  How are you going to get there whether if you're sober or not?


• I wouldn't recommend it. It would be better to drink after the interview.


• Yeah only 1 drink to be on the safe side tho!


• no don't drink before interview night


• hell yeah gettin f*cked up tonight will give ya a little edge tomorrow..


• Go ahead youll be fine


• I wouldn't. Try to get a good night's rest.


• you should not


• don't

How Not to Fail at Job Interviews

• First off it helps if the they do most of the talking.
  
  Ask short "open questions" to all comments. For example if he says "you will work evenings" Ask, "which evenings" and so on. It is a technique to show interest in the job, and that you are interested in what they are interested in.
  
  You can ask just a few things to show you are interested like, when will you complete interviews?, or some chit chat like how long have you been here? but the less you say the better the interview will go.
