Job Interview Questions: After the job interview?

I had a job interview (dec. 9th) and was told they would get back to me later in the month around dec. 25th/ish. my standing with this company is I've been an intern for 2 summers. I e-mailed (jan. 7th) in regards to where I stand and haven't gotten a reply. It's doubtful I've been selected but why would they ignore me when only email has been sent and I haven't done anything to be annoying?

Mistakes to Avoid When Answering Tricky Job Interview Questions


  • Most interviewers say that they're get back to you after an interview, however there is no guarantee that they will. You can continue to check with them on the status of your application, but I would continue looking elsewhere while waiting.

  • You'll probably get the axe by text message

    sorry, but facts are facts

Job Interview Questions: What to wear to a retail job interview?

I am applying/possibly interviewing at a couple retail stores tomorrow just small stuff like bath and body works and claires... but how dressed-up should I be? Just a skirt and a shirt? slacks and a blouse? a suit? Help me out!

How to Job Interview in Today's Job Market



Recommended Answer:
Agree with Kevin...slightly more formal than the associates.

For the stores that you list, a suit would probably be too much. Dress pants and a blouse would be good, or dress pants and a tank top with a cardigan over it. Skirts would be fine as long as they're on the dressy/formal side and hit at or below the knee. A dressy top would be okay, too. Keep your shoulders covered. Your shoes/jewelry should be tasteful, but if you can I would bring along an accent piece (fun necklace, brightly colored pumps) to wear for the appropriate stores. At someplace fashion-forward like Claires or other trendy retailers, this will help you stand out (in a good way) but might not be a good idea at stores that are more oriented to adults or the general public.

This is not as important if you're not interviewing, but I do recommend dressing up a little even if you're just picking up applications. You may be able to meet the manager briefly and a good impression there will go a long way.

  • the trick is to know what the associates of that particular store are wearing, and to dress slightly more formal.

How to Get Your Dream Job - The 3 Step Job Interview Process



Recommended Answer:
i was in an interview for a promotion with three interviewers (senior managers). For one question, while I was answering it and the 3 interviewers are busily writing down my answer, one interviewer stood up suddenly while the other two interviewers were still writing, went to open a window in the room, looked outside for about two minutes....I was freaked out by his behavior. Needless to say, I did not get the promotion. Looking back, and from what I heard later, that interviewer was a racist.

How to Be Prepared For All Types of Job Interviews


  • someone asked me what my parents did for a living. I was 30 years old at the time.

  • I interviewed a guy who thought that because he had a degree from some bogus online university that he was "entitled" (His actual words) to a management position and weekends off. This was a retail environment and NO ONE gets weekends off! I swear that a month later I saw him working at McDonald's.

  • Hiring for retail:

    1. 35 minutes late

    2. "Why do you want to work at ______"
    "I need the cash" -laughs

    3. "How would a good friend describe you?"
    "Uhhh, kind've a grouch." -laughs

Job Interview Questions: Should i go to the job interview drunk?

i have an interview tomorrow, and i suck at interviews. would they notice if i was a little drunk?

Stress And That New Job Interview



Recommended Answer:
LOL! The old rule is: If the job requires you to show up drunk for work, then you should show up drunk at the interview. 8^)

If you suck at interviews, imagine the great impression you'll make if you suck AND you're drunk! 8^P

Useful Tips in Handling Job Interviews


  • i dont think it would be bad to have a drink before the interview to help calm you down. just dont drink so much that it gets you drunk

  • If I were you I wouldn't. They might notice, they could smell it. It's all about first impressions, you wouldn't want that to be your first impression. :) Best of luck!

  • bad idea, given the fact that you think you're bad at them, I'm not so sure being intoxicated will make things too much better.

  • Your joking right? They will smell it on you. You obviously need some self confidence, I sure would not hire you if you were drunk. Besides, they do drug tests.

  • no,but maybe if you just take a shot to ease your nerves you should be fine?it just depends.i wouldn't show up completely trashed though.

  • especially if it's for an air traffic controller....you'll get it easily

  • Yes haha and let us know how it goes.

  • have confidence, we all get nervous, that's part of being a human and learning from our mistake, be yourself

Job Interview Questions: I had a job interview last Friday. Is it time to call or should I keep waiting?

I had a job interview last Friday for a major car manufacturer. They told me they needed someone someone quickly. I know its only been three days but how long does it usually take before I hear back from them? Is it too early to call about it?

Job Interview Skills Tips - Sample Interview Thank You Notes



Recommended Answer:
Make a phone call after about 5 days and be sure to let him or her know of your continued interest in the job. This is also a good opportunity to ask if he or she needs anything or a clarification from you. If not available, leave a message so that they will know you tried to contact them. Another way to follow up for an interview that would not seem so arrogant would be to send a thank you note to the interviewer.

Best Job Interview Tip - You're The STAR


  • Yes! Now give me 10 points!

  • I think you should wait at least a week. If they don't call within a week call them.

  • can you answer my question please?

    answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20090826113937AADeH2T

  • I wouldn't call. Send them an email thanking them for taking the time to interview you and that you look forward to hearing back and for the possiblity of joining their team.

  • i dont think there is anything wrong with giving them a call. infact i got my last two jobs because i called them. it was between me and one other person and as i was the one who called they took it that i wanted the job more. now i always ring after a few days. they wont think bad at you for it, you can only see it as a positive thing.

  • The first (and most important thing) to do during an interview is to get a business card from the person you interviewed with and send either a thank you card or an email thanking them for their time. The reason you do that is to pave the way for the call you are going to make to follow up with the interviewing individual as necessary.

    That being said, I would call tomorrow morning. Another day won't hurt, and if you were to call today it would be the last day a company would find it unacceptable to receive a call from you.

    Good Luck
