Job Interview Questions: JOB INTERVIEW AT 24 HOUR FITNESS?

Hello I have a job interview tomorrow for 24 hour fitness and I was wondering what kind of questions they would ask or how does the interview goes.

The Inevitable Job Interview Question: "Why Did You Leave (Are Planning To Leave) Your Last Position



Recommended Answer:
Mayra's questions are excellent.

the best way to use those questions in preparation for an interview is as follows:

Answer each question as best as you can.
Write each answer down.
Memorized your answers.
Practice answering the questions out loud without reading the answer. Have someone listen, and ask for a critique.

Questions asked may be different, but you will be able to adapt answers to most questions. When you do this, you make a great impression, and chances of getting a job are greater.

Good luck ..... Johnny.

Job Interview Questions: I have a job interview on Tuesday, how do I make it go well?

The job is at Good Will and it'll be the first job I've every had (if I get the job) and I really could use some tips on how to make it go well.

Job Interview Preparation



Recommended Answer:
disclaimer: I hate retards who use their gay "bots" to answer questions leading you to websites that have nothing to do with the question.

I really wish Yahoo would step up enforcement on this issue.

Now, onto your question:

As a guy who conducts lots of interviews a lot of time, i can tell you a few things i look for.

Dress for the interview. Where will you be working? If you're applying at McDonalds, then a suit and tie is over kill and you won't make a good impression.

If you're applying to be Donald Trumps executive supervisor, then obviously you want the best money can buy (you can apply that to wherever your job falls in between)

but basically DO NOT OVER DRESS. Nobody likes a brown noser :)

What kind of job is it?

Engineering? Retail Management? Human Resources? Etc

Figure that out, then think of some questions you might ask someone if they were being interviewed by you.

Example: Retail Management

Q.) Do you believe that the customer is always right?Questions like this do NOT have a right or wrong answer. As someone who has done this for a long time, i construct questions like this to gauge your reaction.

Think about how you'd answer the most difficult questions, and have those answers ready.

Chances are, those questions won't come up - but if a difficult one does come up - at least you were thinking about it, or something similar to it, and have some sort of synapse ready to fire away.

Also - anticipating a difficult question will help you breathe easier every time you get an easy question...making you appear to be much more relaxed and at home than you probably are ;)Sit posturing. Slouching is a good sign that you're not taking things seriously.

Show up early - not too early. Too early may give off the impression that you're trying to play kiss-butt again - and if the interviewer is slammed with other things, they'll feel more obligated to get to you faster since you're waiting, which will possibly create in them a subconscious dislike for you.

It's okay to lie a little bit, but tell the truth on "gotcha" questions.

Example:

"Have you ever had to ask forgiveness for something you did wrong"
I get this answer ALL OF THE TIME on this question:

"I always give my very best to do the right thing, therefore, i have never had to ask forgiveness"

This is a gotcha question. Not only is that answer dishonest, but it's not very well thought out, and it's a BS answer. I would not hire whoever answered it.In the end though - if you're a natural for the job, it'll go smoothly. Hopefully (and more often that not, this is the case) you'll have an experienced person conducting the interview and they'll know what things to look for in you that you may not notice about yourself, which will tell them if you're a good fit for the job.My last bit of advice - don't go into the interview thinking you can BS your way into a job by lying and stretching the truth the whole time.Lots of people, like myself, throw in those "gotcha" questions everywhere, and if you fail just one of them - you're toast.

    Job Interview Questions: I have been invited for a job interview unfortunately the position ....?

    .... Being offered is below my current position. I am neither too happy nor too unhappy in my current job. Should I decline the interview? How should it be handled? Will it burn future bridges? Is going for the interview and wasting everyone's time a better solution to this situation?

    Interview Skills You Need To Succeed In a Job Interview



    Recommended Answer:
    You are in a great situation, because you have nothing to lose. It's great practice for taking a flyer: go in, and see if you can impress them suitably to 1) get a job offer and 2) have them amend the job, level, and salary to meet your requirements.

    If they ask why you came in, if possible, tell them that you really want a chance to work with them (list things that make this company so great), and that while you realized that the job was beneath your current level, you couldn't refuse the chance to meet them, and talk about options, current and future. If it's clear the job can't be re-worked, take some time before refusing, let them know that you really, really, wanted to take the job, apologize for taking their time, but when you ran the numbers you just couldn't find a way to make it work.

    If you handle it well, you won't burn a bridge. You'll build one.

    Job Interview Tip Number 1 is Preparation


    • It is important to find out more. Is your current job going up anytime soon? Will you be promoted and do you think this job offer could further you in your chosen career? If you think that this job, after considering the questions, could be a way of getting higher up, quicker - then go for the job interview - after all, what harm could it do? You can decline at a later date, and explain at the interview that this is below your current position, but you feel that this company could offer you a better future.

      Hope I Helped =)

    • It shouldn't be too hard to explain that you don't think the position is right for you in a polite way. Thank them for the opportunity and say you'd like to stay connected (if that's the truth).

      They are obviously interested in you for a reason, and will probably respect the fact that you don't want to waste their time. But letting them know how you feel could open up other doors at that company. Perhaps there is - or will be - a different position that is right for you.

    Job Interview Questions: How to answer this job interview question (easy 10 points)?

    I have an interview for the assistant manager position at an all girls store. I'm already a sale assosciate there, and the DM already prepared me with some questions for the regional manager. One of them is:

    "How would you react if one of your employees weren't listening to you and not doing their job?"

    Job Interviews: When Does Your Interview Really Begin?



    Recommended Answer:
    Tell them "Please listen. This is important. I enjoy having you work here and need you to do the work so I don't lose you!"

    Always try to put a positive spin on any answer in a job interview.

    The Easy Way to Answer Job Interview Questions


    • You could pull them aside, away from everyone else, and talk to them. Ask them politely why the job is not getting done. Also, you could ask them if they need clear instructions. Sometimes employees are having a bad day, so you could even help them out if they were. If this was a recurring problem, then you would need to go over the instructions again about what they should be doing. The main thing, is that you would pull them aside, so know one else can hear, and ask them if everything's okay and what should be getting done. :)

    • You really don't want to too far into the extremes. Those being A) Fire them on the spot or B) Brush it off

      The best answer for this situation with limited context is to go in the middle of A and B. You want to approach this worker and determine the reason for not doing the job. Explain to them the circumstances of their job and be not too stern and not too soft. You could say "I would ask the worker why they aren't doing their job and tell them ways that they can improve" If the worker doesn't improve for whatever reason, you should fire and find a replacement.

      That's how I would do it. Good Luck.

    • Either one of two things.

      1. ) "Your mother."

      or

      2. ) Give him only 1 warning telling him that he was being disrespectful to both the boss by not doing the job, and the employees by not doing the job. Then say that there are people out there that would kill to have some type of job.

    • I would probably go over to them and just flat out say "if you don't step it up, you're getting fired, and I mean it." In a stern tone. They should listen to you!

    • Blackies are so mainstream.
      Mothers are so mainstream.
      Dans are so mainstream.

    • FIRE THEM !!

      that way you can hire NEW employees for less money !!

    • In the words of the Trump" Your Fired!"

    • " I would get their attention, and get them on task."

    • Say you would fire them on the spot, or at least threaten to replace them with someone who has lost their job.

    • be mad

    • i just said id inform my superviser, employers like rats

    • I would say "Holy ****! What the **** are you doing?! Get to work!

      Jk

    Job Interview Questions: What question's should I ask at my job interview?

    I have a job interview at McDonalds on Tuesday, March 16th 2010 and I was wondering when they ask me "do you have any questions?" what question's should i ask?

    Job Interview Skills - How to Deal With Unusual, Irrelevant Or Stupid Questions at Interviews



    Recommended Answer:
    It depends on the type of interview. If it's a one on one interview with the hiring manager you may want to ask about hours, overtime, pay rates for different tasks.

    If your in a panel interview with other employees then your expected to "rattle" the panel. Rattle means ask a question that puts those people on the spot. They have you there to size you up and to rattle you and people tend to get intimidated when faced with 3 or 4 people interviewing them.

    Rattling the panel shows that your not intimidated. Asking the panel "how do you like working here?" will rattle the panel as people are afraid to ask that one question. Hiring managers love hearing that question asked to current employees as then they can tell my the body language what the person want to say rather then the correct thing to say...Good luck with your interview.

    How to Handle Skilled Job Interviewers & Behavioral Interview Questions


    • Ask about working conditions, planned holidays, opportunities to move up the career ladder.

      Are there any bonus schemes or overtime possibilities?

      Look tidy, enjoy the interview

      Good luck

    Job Interview Questions: Does being asked to do a background check after your job interview basically mean your hired?

    So I went in for a job interview about two weeks ago on a friday, the next monday the lady called me back to come in and complete a background check. I came in wednesday of that week and completed it, she said she'd call me when it came in. Its now tuesday of the following week, and I haven't heard back yet. Should I be worried? I thought the background check basically meant I was hired..? Was I wrong to think that?

    Job Interview Tips That Deliver



    Recommended Answer:
    No it doesn't , especially if you have a record. They background check everyone.

    How to Master a Job Interview


    • As a manager that is responsible for interviewing and hiring a background check does not mean your hired. It means they are interested in you. I would often do background checks on multiple candidates at a time incase one didnt fit what I was looking for.
      Background checks can take anywhere from 3 days to a couple of weeks to come in depending on the service used by the company. I had often had background checks come in perfectly clear but not hire the person because some one else might have been better qualified.
      So a background check is in no way a guarantee that you will be hired. But it is a good sign so stay optamistic.

    • I'm having the same situation as you , I'll let you know when they call me back.

    Job Interview Questions: What is the best response to this job interview question?

    Looking for work now after being with employer that I love after 7 years. Only looking because we lost major contract about a year ago and every since then I have been cut to 20 hours per week. We cannot continue on with this reduced income. So when in job interview and they ask "why are you looking for a new job?" What is the best way to answer that question? I am afraid that it would not sound favorable if I revealed that my current company may have contract problems. Looking for jobs in the same field.

    Job Interview Tips - Best Interview Questions



    Recommended Answer:
    You don't need to give details... Just state the general truth. Tell them that your current position has reduced hours and you're looking for full-time employment. The new employer doesn't need to know all the details about your current company...

    Good luck.
