Job Interview Questions: Job interview on Friday! Please help? :)?

It doesn't help that I'm VERY shy, timid, SCARED!!

Do you have any tips for me?

The job interview is for 'Homecare Pharamacy purchasing assistant'. All I really know is that it is a financial role where I will be seeing lots of invoices and inputting data onto Microsoft excel.

I've never done anything like this and clearly stated this in the interview so I'm quite shocked to have an interview.

I'm currently a receptionist on a Labour ward so the only similarity is that it's within the NHS.

Best Answers to the Trickiest Job Interview Questions

Recommended Answer:
Okay, so if you're a receptionist you must have experience in data entry, right? You must also know or have used Microsoft Office / Excel as well, right? If this is the case you have nothing to worry about, they (Homecare Pharmacy) will bring you up to speed on what your duties will entail. If you do not have experience with data entry or Microsoft Excel then you really should NOT go to the interview... you would only end up embarrassing yourself and wasting the interviewer's time.

The Comic Tragedy of Job Interviews

• hey hun
  
  the job i have now, i had hardly any experience for. they asked for Audio typing, minute taking and stuff and i havent really done any of those things!! you learn on the job, the bits you think will be the hardest are often the easiest (i almost cancelled the interview because i hadnt dont audio typing).
  
  tell them how much you want to learn and progress. if anything, go to the interview for experience :) you never know. i didnt think i had a shot at getting this job, yet here i am 10 months later doing what i love :)
  
  good luck xxxx


• You will do fine.once you get in and get the hang off everything,you'll laugh at the fact that you worried so much.but I know that it is scary to start any new job but not to worry. if they like you great and if not,thats okay too.but I'am sure that you'll do fine. hold your head up and believe in yourself and keep repeating..." I can do this". and you will. and praying to God helps too!

Job Interviews - How to Ace a Telephone Job Interview

Recommended Answer:
It doesn't help you to call the employer after the interview.

They have their process and they will make up their mind when they are ready. Sometimes they make up their mind right away, then some manager puts everything on hold, so they have to wait.

Also they might offer the job to someone else, and have to wait for them to accept it.

Anyway, calling them won't change anything.

Reasons to call include
1. You have another offer but you prefer this job and you want to know the status.
2. You want to know how you went, that is, you want some feedback. Some managers and HR will be happy to provide this feedback and others are not so helpful.

Job Interview Questions: What should I wear to a job interview?

I'm 16 and have a job interview for a teenage clothes shop. I'm a girl, what do you think I should wear? Could you get some pictures of clothes suggestions I could wear because I don't know D:

Tips to a Job Interview Presentation to Impress Your Hiring Manager

Recommended Answer:
What to wear for an interview depends a lot on *where* exactly you're interviewing to work. For your situation, a pair of neat dress pants or a skirt with a dress shirt or a nice sweater, or a neat, not-too-short dress should be fine. Consider how the people who already work there dress for work, and aim for something similar but a little more polished. For a place like Gap, you'd want to go with something kind of classic and a bit preppy, while for somewhere like Forever 21 would be more trendy, and Urban Outfitters is more hipster and quirky. Jeans (or anything denim, really), t-shirts, tank tops, sweats, hoodies, sneakers, etc. are (almost) always a big no-no for job interviews. Things with rips or stains are always a no-no.

(The outfit Melissa recommended for you, while cute for a school day or hanging out with your friends, is much too casual for a job interview.)

Spontaneous Job Interviews - Why You Should Love Them

• Wear something from there store or something that is of that style...but keep it appropriate. Khakis or black slacks with a cute top would work as well as a tasteful dress and cardi or something like that. No butt or major cleavage showing!

Job Interview Training For Managers - Will's Story

Recommended Answer:
This covers your first 3 list items:
There are two main topics that they will ask about, customer service and working in a team:

* They're going to ask about how you handle conflict
Customer service - they want to know that you're not going to let customers rip off the company with false complaints, yet keep them coming back. If they ask how you deal with conflict, say something like I'm fair, but when I'm right no one - NO ONE - gets away with false claims

* They're going to try and know how well you work with a team
Again, this is delicate... they want to know that you can work with other people, but they also want to know that you can stick up for yourself and won't leave because you can't. That being the case, they will ask something about how "you handle interpersonal conflict". Tell them that rather than get help from a third party, you solve problems on your own. When someone is being bossy, you make sure that they know that YOU are the boss!

What to wear:
Dress like the people do where you will work.

How long does an interview last:
This can depend on a lot of things, but I'd say 1/2 hour is a good bet.

When the Promising Job Interview Turns Up Empty - You Can Still Win! Interview Tips and Strategy

• Relax and be yourself. Consider what the current employees are like, how they do their jobs, and you'll get an idea of what the manager's looking for. They want to be able to trust you, that you'll be professional, represent the company well and do a good job. Let them know you really want the job and that you're committed to being a good employee. Speak well, be friendly, smile. It'll be over before you know it, probably about 15 minutes.

Tips For Job Interviews - Information You Need to Know

Recommended Answer:
Don't say doctor, they will ask for a note. Say personal time, if they insist, appointment at the house to do work, or financial consult, something that does not require a note. Drivers test, insurance claim, taking family member to a personal appointment.

Job Interview Skills: Four Critical Mistakes to Avoid!

• Good one, Curious if a note is not needed to return to work. If your company gives you PTO (personal time off) hours, I'd use those then you don't have to tell them anything, just put in for the time.

• Tell him you have a doctor's appointment. Not entirely honest, but it works.
