Preparing Your Interview Questions and Answers - A 6 Step Guide to Successful Job Interviewing



Recommended Answer:
Wear professional clothes such as a black pencil skirt with a blouse, or black pants with a button down shirt.
Arrive ten minutes ahead of time, arriving too early means that you'll have to wait.
Bring a resume just in case, and use a folder, don't fold resumes it's not professional.
Practice some questions, think of ways to answer questions such as "why do you want to work at " "?
Other questions that are used repeatedly are "why did you leave " "? and do you have any questions? which at that point you should have at least one. Other questions that might be asked is Why do you feel that you are perfect for this job. Practice makes perfect and it can be nerve raking the first time. gl!

Top 10 Tips for Excelling in a Panel Job Interview


  • Yes, bring a good resume with you if you haven't yet submitted any to your potential employer. Don't worry about your lack of formal working experience - everyone goes through that stage. Your volunteer experiences are going to be a great advantage. Wear something that's appropriate for the culture of the company. A formal job may call for a formal clothing but a casual job may require something that's not too formal. It has to be decent and you have to look good for a great impression. You may arrive a few minutes in advance in order for you to get comfortable with the place. Relax, be confident, and try to go over some possible interview questions prior to your interview.

    You want to bring a copy of your resume along with a cover letter.

    Dress neatly and conservatively. You want to project the best possible image of yourself, so plan and prepare a neat, businesslike outfit. You can't go wrong with a business suit.

    Arrive for the interview about 10 minutes ahead of schedule.

    I hope this helps :-) Good luck!!

  • 1. Have your resume. Your resume must be neat and concise/brief.
    2. Take a bath, wear your best dress.
    3. Be smart in answering and look straight at the eye of the interviewer.Answer all his questions.

Job Interviewing - Do's and Dont's - Before, During and After an Interview



Recommended Answer:
You should enforce the fact that you're looking for a long and stable job commitment throughout the interview.

Preparing to Answer Job Interview Questions


  • Just tell the interviewer honestly that you are truly interested in this job and you promise you will perform up to their expectation. But when you are asked about the expected salary, as long as you don't 'overprice' yourself, I don't think they will treat you as 'overqualified'. I think most of the time, the employer will rate us as 'overqualified' when the salary we ask for is too high, and they think they can't afford to pay such a high salary. But if the salary you are asking for is a reasonably acceptable figure, I think the employer will be most happy to hire an 'overqualified' person like you, as they expect an 'overqualified' person should be able to perform better than the 'qualified' and 'unqualifed' groups of people.

    Below are some links connecting to articles about some interview tips. You may take a look! All the best to you!

      Job Interview Questions: Should I mention this during a job interview or not?

      Tomorrow I have two job interviews, an hour or two apart. My friend said it might make the second interview (which is my first choice) more likely to hire me if I mention during the interview that I just had an interview before that. Kind of like how people don't want something until someone else has it. Do you think this is true? Should I mention that I just had an interview?

      Job Interview Answers - 5 Of The Most Common Questions Demystified



      Recommended Answer:
      No, not unless you have some special skill/talent and are a highly sought after employee. If you are, yes, then let them know you are in demand and they better make an offer.

      If you are not, don't bring it up. The interviewer might feel you are trying to intimidate them, and it comes off as a bad trait in a job interview.

      Job Interview Questions: Do I bring a cover letter and resume to my job interview?

      I have a job interview at Old Navy, should I bring a cover letter/resume?

      7 Tips To Prepare For A Job Interview



      Recommended Answer:
      If you're applying for an associate position, a cover letter and resume are not necessary. They dont expect people applying for part-time positions to have much retail experience. Many young people are hired without any experience at all, so there's not going to be much on a resume. Just be prepared to answer the question why you want to work there - that's something that would normally appear in a cover letter -- just no need to bring that with you. Any of your job history was provided on the application when you filled it out online, so no need to replicate that data on a resume.

      Trying To Get A Job? Do Away With These Job Interview Booboos


      • You might bring the resume (I've been asked for a copy of my resume during an interview before) if you have any job experience, but the cover letter isn't necessary at this point. The cover letter is supposed to help you get them to read your resume and, thus, get an interview...but you obviously already have one at this point.

      • You generally give your cover letter and resume whenever you apply, with your application. If they did not specifically ask you to bring one then there is no need to do so for the interview.
