What questions do you suppose they will ask during the interview?
Also any advise/tips for doing well/making a good impression?
This is my first real (paying) job I've ever applied for, and I'm 19

Job Interview Weaknesses - How to Overcome These Common Job Interview Weaknesses



Recommended Answer:
They'll probably ask what sort of experience you have. Instead of saying "none", say that you have experience babysitting, which provided you with the opportunity to improve your communication skills while dealing with the parents. (or use whatever experience you have, ie tutoring etc).

They may ask what your future plans are, and you should say something along the lines of that you are looking forward to having to working full time (or whatever) while you get your degree (if true).

Basically, the best thing you can do to make a good impression is to smile, look interested, don't mention any bad habits you have, and - this is the most important part- at the end of the interview, thank them, shake their hand, and say "I really want this job. I think it will be a great fit."

Then if they have another applicant to choose between, they'll remember how you seemed to want the job and that you were a good fit for the job, and they'll choose you.

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


  • They will ask:
    Tell me something about yourself
    What are your strengths
    What are your weaknesses
    Why do you want to work here?
    Do you have any questions for us.
    Everyone is nervous when they have an interview...smile, be yourself, and relax. If you don't understand a question, ask them to clarify it.
    Remember that employers hire people so that they will make the company money. So, you should try to convince them that you are a fast learner...that you have great attendance ... and that you will do a great job for them. Hope this helps.

Job Interview Questions: Should I cover up my tattoo for a job interview?

I have a job interview tomorrow at Chili's [a restaurant]. I have a small tattoo on my wrist, should I cover it up for the interview? And then if I do, should I mention it and ask if it needs to be covered while working? Or should I just leave it alone and see if they notice? Thanks :-]

How to Display Enthusiasm at a Job Interview



Recommended Answer:
I would cover it up with a watch or bracelet for the interview. Even if the job doesn't have a problem with it, the actual person interviewing you might.

My job is like that. We have several employees (myself included) who have visible ink. However, I know for a fact that one of the other managers isn't fond of it and he'll give the thumbs down on anyone he interviews if they have any showing. Likewise, it plays zero factor when I'm interviewing something.

As a general rule, getting the job is the hard part, so try to do everything nice and neat for that step.

Also, one of the servers at the Chili's near my house has both wrist tattooed and one of the bartenders has a full sleeve.

Job Interview - Top Tips When Preparing for a Job Interview


  • Hmmm speaking as a woman i say cover it up just for the interview but do not try to hard to do so just enough so the interviewer doesn't see it so it doesnt seem like you were lying because you technically didnt. After you get the job politely ask if the tatoo should be covered up, most of the time layed back restaurants like chilli's do not really care for wrist tattoos.

  • Cover it up with a cardigan or something, and then when you get the job, if they notice it, just pretend you never even thought about it being a problem, and hopefully by then, they will like to enough to keep you there and not sack you.

  • I would make sure to tell them before you are hired, wouldn't want to start off on the wrong foot. So I would do either of those, cover it up BUT mention it, or leave it, show it to them and ask how it should be handled. Good luck at the interview!

  • Cover it up. Don't wear an arm band. Put maybe a band-aid, or a long sleeved shirt to cover it up, and mention it while at the job interview. Seeing if they notice isn't a good idea, they might not appreciate it. Asking is the best way to go.

  • Absolutely cover it for the interview. If you get the job, ask if it's against dress code to have it visible while working. Odds are, you'll have to cover it.

  • Don't volunteer information. Just do a good job, and see if they say anything. They may not. Lots of folks have ink.

  • yeah, definitely cover it up. and then once you get the job......then you ask if you need to cover your tattoo. do not mention it until you are 100% sure you are hired and on the schedule.

  • Nope, it doesn't affect your work. If they have a problem with it after you get the job then they're discriminating

  • i would cover it but then ask if they accept tattoos in their line of work
    then point out that you have one

    Job Interview Questions: How would you know if you passed a job interview?

    I just had a job interview today. I answered all the questions she asked. Then we had a little small talk. She then told me I would get a call around the 17 of this month (June). She said they got to do a background check to make sure I don't got a bench warrant, unpaid tickets, etc. Then she started talking about the pay and what she can offer and also the hours she can offer. Does this mean I'm about to land a job?? What are signs that you'll know you'll get hired?

    Job Interview Advice - How to Properly Prepare for a Job Interview and Get Hired


    • Prepare for the worst, expect the best.

      Don't derail your job search, but don't commit yourself to anything else. Prepare your personal life to start a job.

      None of those things in the interview are unexpected for any of the applicants. She had the same conversation with whomever they chose to go to the next level of hiring. And none of those things commit them to hire you.

      Good luck

    • Id say all the signs are in the talk. If youu two were very confortable, very warm when talking, id say youu got the job.
