Recommended Answer:

How to Earn a Winning Grade on Your Next Job Interview


  • When manager says "something casual" he means "dressy casual". So dress the way you would for an office job, but substitue a v neck blouse or shirt that would show off your "assets". being sublte and professional in the way you dress, and cheerful, positive answers in the interview should stand you out from the other applicants. Dont forget to email, text, or send a thank you afterwards.
    Good luck!

  • Wear something form fitting but not too revealing. You want to think first date with a cute guy. Let your personality shine and make sure your hair and makeup is done!

  • Wear something casual, but a top that makes someone see why you would be a good representative for Hooters.
    Good Luck!

  • Nothing obviously.

Get Hired Fast & Earn More - Top 5 Job Interview Tips



Recommended Answer:
It doesn't give the best impression if you walk into a job interview looking like you've just killed a guy with a fork. Essentially it's all about first impressions, going in with a black eye could indicate you've got a short temper, and not someone who they want working for them. Personally I'd just apologise to them when you walk in, saying, as you suggested, you got hit with a baseball or something of the sorts. If you don't tell them, they might not ask but instead assume, you don't really want to leave anything to the imagination in that situation. Essentially if you're the type of person who often gets into fights, they might make a guess by your characteristics, morel of the story is, don't get into the fights in the first place!

If Job Interviews Scare the Snot Out of You


  • Tell them you where at school at a dodge ball hit your face or something. lol good luck.

  • If you did everything you could to avoid the fight, and took a stand for honor, and were defending someone... I don't see a problem with the truth. Honesty is best. I'd be more apt to hire someone who was a straight shooter with me- especially if they were standing up for what's right.

    However, if you're a bully who picked a fight....well... good luck.

Job Interview Questions: Help! sister hating me for getting a job interview before her?

im 14, my sister is 17, we are both looking for jobs, and i got a job interview after looking for about 3 weeks, she has been looking for months and hasnt gotten anything, and since i got the interview she has been horrid to me and says she will hate forever if i get the job, how can i calm her down? nothing i say works, should i take the job? or ditch it?

Recommended Answer:

if you want to irritate her tell her they only hire competent people :D.

Job Interview Questions - Interview Techniques to Prepare You to Ace Your Interview!


  • Take it she is just being selfish because she is thinking about her and if she really weren't selfish she would be like well done your lucky to get a job etc but she is just being stuck up just ignore her she will soon get bored. And just help her get a job it may help or take her out for a meal or something just to be nice. Good luck!

  • Well done for getting an interview. It's tough finding work and it's too bad your sister hasn't found anything but her attitude stinks and maybe this is why she is still unemployed. Definitely go for the job interview and take the job if offered. Why on earth should you be unemployed to make her feel better? Your parents should talk to her about her attitude with you as it's embarrassing. Tell her that you got the interview fair and square and you want her to do well too but someone elses success or failure doesn't change anything in her life. If you back down now you'll be cancelling your wedding in ten years because she is jealous. She's being pathetic. Ignore her after you have spoken to her calmly. What 17 year old stamps her feet in a huff and says she will never speak to her sister again over this kind of thing? Cringeworthy. Good luck. I hope you get it.

That`s happened to me before, almost the exact thing. All I did was call and say I had a interview previously and was calling to see if they had filled the position yet. I wouldn`t see any reason why you shouldn`t call and leave a message.

    Hi, Majority of the folks has already taught you about common questions during the interview. To add for your learning this site contains the most common mistakes people do during a job interview
    I hope it will help you since it has helped me too. I got refered to this before here in yahoo answers also.

    Job Interview Questions - How to Answer Popular Job Interview Questions


    • To get hired at Six Flags, they will want to see that you will be good with people, so you need to demonstrate that you have good customer service skills. I would try to prepare examples of past experiences where you served the public. If you have no experience, then come up with the way you interact with friends, family, neighbors. The person at the top mentions all the right questions that typically will be asked of you. Remember though, the person interviewing you will ask 10 or 20 people the same questions. Don't answer like everyone else.

      Always try to use examples. For example; "What are your strengths?" Instead of saying; "I'm a hard worker, I'm good with people and I'm ontime." You would say something like; "I'm a dedicated worker with great customer service skills, for example, in my last job I had to handle many different requests from customers. I was able to multitask and service all the customers with great feedback. I also never missed a day of work and was recognized as one his top employees.

      This is just an example, but you always want to have a few "stories" that you can pull out of your pocket when asked about these simple questions. Set yourself apart from the rest, leave an impression on them.

    • www.best-interview-strategies.com…

      This site has a lot of common interview questions and gives examples on how to answer them or how to approach the answer.

      I skimmed through it and it seemed there were many that i've heard in past interviews ...

      Think about your strengths & especially weaknesses ... I can say I have probably had this question in some form in every job interview i've been to

      good luck getting the job

      PS
      Please "dress to impress" even if it's a casual job!
      It doesn't mean you have to wear a business suite or anything .. but NO jeans.
      Put on dress pants and a cute top, or khakis would be a good choice for that type of job.
      Sorry - didn't see if you were male/female ... but if female no cleavage hanging out .. either way don't wear much perfume/cologne, hair done nice, all that good stuff ..

      and please silence your cell phone - no vibrate ..or even better, leave it in the car!

    • why do you want to work here? what are your strengths? what are your weaknesses? why should we hire you? do you have any questions? (you should prepare some questions, they like to see that you are interested). Also, research the company a lot before you go so you can name specific things you like about it. you can find more interview questions by googling

      Job Interview Questions: Should I talk about work done for a political party during a job interview?

      I have a job interview on Monday dealing (applying to be a clerk at the University that I go to) and the email says that I should be prepared to talk about prior experience.

      I was wondering if I should talk about work done for the political party that I belong to and why I like that party?

      Recommended Answer:
      I wouldn't, no. Political things are a matter of personal opinion - you would have maybe a 50/50 chance of offending the interviewer if he/she doesn't agree with the political party you worked for.

          How To Make Job Interviews Easy


          • Here is the (very long but very important) list that I recommend to clients. Obviously not everything will be necessary for you, but it will at least give you a checklist to start!

            * One nice copy of your resume for each person interviewing you, plus one copy for yourself to reference (if you don't know how many people you will encounter, I usually print 10)
            * Two nice copies of your reference list
            * Two nice copies of testimonials and reference letters
            * Two nice copies of positive, relevant work reviews and awards
            * Two nice copies of relevant designs, artwork, proposals, project plans, reports, etc.
            * One nice portfolio (optional) in which to arrange your testimonials, reviews, and related work. Don't include anything that you don't want to lose. (I learned this the hard way. I put original certificates, awards, and references in a portfolio, and a hiring manager asked to keep it for review. I was so excited about the job and trusted that I would be hired, that I allowed him to keep it. A couple of days later I called to see when I could pick it up and he had lost it.)
            * Two pens that work
            * Notepad (In advance, I write my questions on it and notes for myself so the interviewers know I've come prepared. You should also write down the names, titles, and other notes about the people interviewing you.)
            * Directions to the interview
            * Contact number in case you get lost or are late (don't be late!)
            * Fully charged cell phone
            * Hairbrush or comb
            * Breath mints
            * Tissues
            * Stain remover pen or wipes
            * Coins for parking meters and vending machines
            * Money for coffee with the interviewer, lunch, parking, etc.
            * Bottle of water (most places will offer you something to drink, but I like to be prepared)
            * Anything else the interviewer has asked you to bring

          • Use an interview checklist of what you need to do the day before your interview and what you should take with you to the job interview. The site below provides a comprehensive interview checklist so you can be well prepared for your interview.

          • Nothing, really. Just yourself!
