The Job Interview - Tips For Winning Your Interviewer Over

Recommended Answer:
Dab some Beanie weenies behind your ears and offer your interviewer some over sized marshmallows. Discreetly spraying insect repellent in your pits at some point during the interview may be laying it on a bit thick but tuck a can of Off in your bag anyway and play it by ear.

Job Interview Questions: Can the employer cancel your job interview?

I had an interview scheduled next week. Then I get an email from their lady in HR saying

"I am sorry to say that we will have to cancel your interview as
the hiring mgr has decided to go with another candidate for the role."

Is the employer allowed to cancel my interview like this? I had prepared for so long and they don't even give me a chance to present myself after all that...seems highly unethical if not illegal.

Job Interview Questions: Are piercings okay for job interview?

I just got a nose piercing yesterday(a stud) and I have a follow up job interview with Chick-fil-A in a few hours. I am freaking out because im afraid they won't hire me if they see I have a facial piercing. Do you have any recomendations on how to cover it up, or do you think they will be okay with it?

From the Eyes of a Job Interviewer

Recommended Answer:
I would say take it out if it's against their dress code - I frown on applicants that come to interview for me with piercings or not wearing professional clothing. On the other hand, if the applicant is really qualified and assures me they will remove it when working their shift, I wouldn't let it stop me from hiring them. Good luck at your interview!

I Landed a Job Interview: Should I Stop My Job Search?

• Remove the piercings until after your interview. Ask the boss, or the person doing the hiring at that time, if certain piercings are allowed. A lot of businesses, including major retail stores, don't allow some types of obvious body piercings (or large, uncovered tattoos)...it doesn't show a "professional" appearance and some customers find it offensive, especially older customers. So ask first before you wear them.


• Perhaps you can cover it up with a bandage? But rather than that, I'm not sure if having a facial piercing is a good idea for a job interview because first impressions are everything in the business world.


• Most often it is not. I know where I work, people like that are the topic of "Are you kidding me?" in the break room all day after their interview.


• At Chick-Fil-A, ABSOLUTELY NOT. They are a very conservative company and your chances of getting the job would be significantly hindered if you show up with a piercing.

Job Interview Questions: Tips for a graphic design job interview?

I got an interview for a part-time graphic design position at my school.

The thing is.... this is my first job interview ever and 45 minutes seems like a really long time... :C
What am I going to do for 45 minutes?! What will they ask? >.<
I thought job interviews lasted only 10 to 15 minutes or something...

Can someone give me some tips?

The 11 Cardinal Mistakes of Job Interviews

Recommended Answer:
yes, do bring a portfolio. they will want to see your work not just a resume and a few references. try your best to answer all questions to the best to your ability.

when you meet them, try to greet them first and give a firm handshake. make eye contact and smile. never say that your nervous and try to relax.

pretend that you have know this person for years. try to find a way to relate to whatever it is you are talking about. tell the about your own experiences. tell them a story (make sure that it is relevant to the subject of matter).

they will most likely ask/tell you:
- why do you want the job?
- what did you find interesting about our company?
- what do you know about our company?
- do you have any experience or any knowledge of this field of work?
- what are you strengths and weaknesses?
- tell me about yourself.
- do you have any questions for me?

when they ask you if you have any questions for them always say yes! it will come as a surprise that you even said yes. they'll be curious and wonder what it is that you want to ask them. i always ask them this: " What is you ideal employee?" this will give you an idea of what they are look for in a employee. what they like and what they don't like.

good luck. i'm sure you'll do well. just remember to breathe.

Job Interviews Are Fearful Experiences - Follow a Proven Outline to Ace Your Next Interview

Recommended Answer:
First of all, they won't turn you down or hire you soley based on your hair color.
Second, Try something down, but out of your face, like if you have bangs, pin them up. You don't want to be continuously tucking your hair behind your ears.
Third, I don't know about piercings. Are they ears? Facial? It depends. Ears are okay. Facial? Depends on the business.
Fourth, wear what you think you're supposed to wear on the job, but one step up. If you think the dress code is khaki pants and such, wear dress pants and a fancy shirt. If you think it's dress pants, wear a suit or dress suit. Don't wear uncomfortable shoes or anything you're not comfortable in, because they will notice. Be confident.

Job Interviews - Last Minute Strategies

Job Interview Questions: What would you do at this job interview?

Say you're at your 10:00 job interview. You finish up, the interviewer is happy, and is willing to offer you a job.

That's all fine, except you're supposed to be at an 11:00 interview, with another company that is in the same line of work. You're sure you will get the job, but this company will give you more hours, and possibly better pay.

What do you tell the person who just offered you a job?

Important Job Interview Tips to Land That Job!

Recommended Answer:
If you're offered a job, ask for the details of the offer: salary, benefits, vacation days, etc. Then say you'll need some time to think it over.

Go to your other interview and follow the same procedure. If you have two offers, you can then decide which one is the best fit for you.

Do NOT accept a job offer and then turn it down immediately afterward. Your integrity and brand are very important and sooner or later actions like that will catch up with you. Your best bet is to be professional and honest.

Good luck!

Job Interview Mistakes To Avoid

• Accept the job, then go to the other interview. If the other people hire you, then call and decline the first job afterall claiming some conflict had come up.


• accept the job as you can always reject later on


• What the other two people said. You have to do what's best for YOU, ya dig!

Job Interviews - How to Ace a Telephone Job Interview

Recommended Answer:
Not so long ago, when you went to the local burger joint, it was teenagers working behind the counter, and at the burger grill. Now it is adults as old as their 70s, as many have lost their retirement savings. Currently, there are six individuals for every job. Adults trying to support themselves, as well as families, are taking any job they can, especially those that come with medical benefits. In deciding what to do, the teen has to think outside the box. They need to think beyond that of working in a store, or a burger joint. A teen needs to think about what tasks that need to be done, but people hate doing, even teenagers.
