Job Interview Questions: What should I do if I misspelled a word in a thank you email after a job interview?

I sent an email tonight to the person who interviewed me today and i misspelled the word "persnickety". Should I send a correction email, or just hope they dont notice?

Use Good Scents for Your Job Interview

Recommended Answer:
DO NOT send a correction email.

If you apply for a sales / customer service / managerial type job, it shouldn't matter much.

However, if you're applying to engineering / writing / proofreading / accounting / auditing jobs (jobs that require great attention to detail), then this does not reflect well on you.

Job Interview Questions: In a job interview, do you ask about the salary? or Never brings it up until the potential employer does?

I have been to many job interviews and the salary never comes up in the first interview and I am always unsure whether to ask about it or just let them give an offer first?

Job Interviews: Effective Question And Answer Strategies

Recommended Answer:
Don't ask until offered the job. Then you can ask before you accept the position.

Job Interview Cheat Sheet - Top 6 Questions & Mental Strategies

• Don't bring it up at a job interview for two reasons: (1) for most jobs the pay range is already set and is exactly fixed by your education and experience and, (2) doing so raises the question about why you are applying, much less interviewing, when you have not informed yourself about the pay. That does not look good. For nearly any job notice, there is either a pay range stated or you can get it by asking before you apply. If the job notice does not have the pay range stated, and they will not tell you when asked, you need to be cautious or, at least, get an explanation that makes sense.


• It depends, but if they are calling you for more interviews, it's better to ask. What if it's a salary you'd never take, it's too low? You're just wasting their time and your time by not asking and continuing to go to call back interviews. If they know your current salary, and you're not looking for a lot more, and you don't seem desperate for a job (like you'll take anything), then you usually don't have to ask, since they will assume you're looking for at least the same salary. However, if you get an uncomfortable feeling, ask to make sure the salary is appropriate.
  
  Good luck!


• Preparation:
  
  * Learn about the organization.
  * Have a specific job or jobs in mind.
  * Review your qualifications for the job.
  * Be ready to briefly describe your experience, showing how it relates it the job.
  * Be ready to answer broad questions, such as "Why should I hire you?" "Why do you want this job?" "What are your strengths and weaknesses?"
  * Practice an interview with a friend or relative.
  
  Personal appearance:
  
  * Be well groomed.
  * Dress appropriately.
  * Do not chew gum or smoke.
  
  The interview:
  
  * Be early.
  * Learn the name of your interviewer and greet him or her with a firm handshake.
  * Use good manners with everyone you meet.
  * Relax and answer each question concisely.
  * Use proper English—avoid slang.
  * Be cooperative and enthusiastic.
  * Use body language to show interest—use eye contact and don't slouch.
  * Ask questions about the position and the organization, but avoid questions whose answers can easily be found on the company Web site.
  * Also avoid asking questions about salary and benefits unless a job offer is made.
  * Thank the interviewer when you leave and shake hands.
  * Send a short thank you note following the interview.
  
  Information to bring to an interview:
  
  * Social Security card.
  * Government-issued identification (driver's license).
  * Resume or application. Although not all employers require a resume, you should be able to furnish the interviewer information about your education, training, and previous employment.
  * References. Employers typically require three references. Get permission before using anyone as a reference. Make sure that they will give you a good reference. Try to avoid using relatives as references.
  * Transcripts. Employers may require an official copy of transcripts to verify grades, coursework, dates of attendance, and highest grade completed or degree awarded.


• It's best not to ask things like how much money you'll make or about vacation time. Wait until they want to hire you, then ask casually "by the way, how much is the pay?". If you don't like the sound of the pay and your the type of person who is able to have many offers, then just let them know your previous employer payed you more and that you are no longer interested. Then they'll either offer more or you can get another job. That is only if you really can get a job with better pay, otherwise in this recession... a job is a job,


• Whatever you do, ask them what they are willing to pay you first, so you can negotiate and maybe go up from there. Too many people have accepted less than they are worth by going too low! Hope I helped.

Job Interview Training For Managers - Will's Story

• antiperspirant/deodorant.
  it's not just for your pits.
  not that i would recommend doing this on a daily basis, but you can really put it anywhere.
  it takes a while for it to absorb, so put it on the night before.
  reapply in the morning for added protection.
  wear an undershirt. like a t-shirt, not a wife-beatery one. i realize it's an extra layer, but it's also going to give you something else to absorb the sweat before it escapes.
  put your jacket on at the absolute last possible second.
  
  want to disguise sweaty palms? carry a COLD bottle of drinking water. interviewers will expect your hands to be somewhat cold and clammy vfrom the temperature of the bottle and the condensation on the outside.
  
  good luck!


• i agree with the first chick, also you can even carry a small hankey JUST incase that way if you do end up sweating you can just non shalontly patt it dry w. the napkin
