Job Interview Questions: Had a job interview-- should i follow up?

I applied for a job, then after a week or so, I emailed asking the status of my app and was given aninterview! I had the interview last week; I sent a thank you email and recieved a reply Monday saying she would let me know by the end of the week. It is now Thursday night (they are closed Sat and Sun). Should I send an email asking about my status or would this bug the employer?

Job Interview Advice Everyone Can Use

• firm handshake
  dress conservatively and well
  look the interviewer in the eye
  know a little something about the place you would be working at
  When the interviewer starts talking agree with what the interviewer has to say. If they talk about someone who didn't make it before you because they were late for work often agree with them and say something like, "That is completely unexcusable because that sort of behavior makes work difficult for everyone on the team who was counting on that person to at least make the minimal effort of showing up on time. I can't believe that someone would actually do that."
  Be very polite and smile
  Listen as well as talk
  Think about the kind of person who they would want for that job and speak in a way that would have you come across as such.
  Don't cross your arms or have such other body language that would be off putting like playing with hair or a button
  Speak the part, a mechanic's interview is different from a medical services customer service rep.
  Develop a believable English accent


• first, know a little bit about the company. go online and find out what they do. a candidate who knows nothing about the company likely isn't going to get hired. preparation and having good questions to ask is key. it shows you've done your homework.
  
  second, most companies are looking for long-term employees, not job hoppers. when they ask you about your future plans or what you see yourself doing some number of years down the road, they want to hear you want to stay and grow with that company. say it and mean it.
  
  third, be sure to make good eye contact and speak clearly. answer questions with detail. no one word answers, but don't go on and on either. when appropriate, ask them questions before they ask you if you have any questions. in other words, be sure and confident in yourself. even if you are really nervous and feel like you're going to pee your pants, appear confident and like you mean business. and on that note, make sure you go to the bathroom before you arrive at the place of your interview. again, all in being prepared

Job Interview Questions: Could I mention my sexuality in a job interview?

In a somewhat formal interview at a local retail store or restaurant--would it be okay to mention "hey I'm gay," if I were asked to "tell [the interviewee] about myself?" And then somehow tie that [coming out] into how it's made me stronger, more easygoing or outgoing, comfortable, etc?

LOL

Job Interview Skills Tips - Sample Interview Thank You Notes

Recommended Answer:
They cant ask about sexual orientation and you should not tell them at the interview! It is none of their business and even though it is illegal people do still discriminate. Why would you want to open the door for them to not call you back if they decide they dont want an openly gay employee? Maybe they dont care about sexual orientation but if you seem like the type who has to jam it down everyone's throat then they might assume you will make a big deal about it to every customer or do or say inappropriate things at work.
It is very inappropriate to mention sexual orientation at a job interview! There is no reason to mention it and if it has nothing to do with the position you shouldn't mention it! An employer doesnt want to know whom you sleep with at night.

The Importance of the Job Interview in Canada

• Is there a way to discuss how you have met challenges head on and came out stronger?
  
  By discussing your sexuality, you are actually putting the hiring manager in an uncomfortable position. Knowledge is not power when it comes to every little detail of an applicant's personal life. Jot down several different sentences about yourself that have absolutely nothing to do with being gay. Just as being tall is not the whole of a person, so the same for your personal relationships.
  
  You are interviewing for a job, not being hired for your opinion. By not bringing it into the discussion at the interview, you are making the manager hire you because they want you, not because of who you are. Sell your skills, work ethic and potential for the company. Leave the personality on the resume.
  
  Be professional, be polite, be productive.
  
  Good luck


• See that is what annoys the homophobes. This could be interpreted as flaunting your sexuality.
  As an employer I may take this as a sign of future disruptive behavior and not something I want in my work place.
  It isn't any ones business who you sleep with.
  
  If they asked you you would get defensive


• Learn to be strong with out having to advertise personal decisions. if you can, you are already a leap away from confidence pacifiers.
  this could also give the impression that, this is how you would define yourself. Rather give an example or show a characteristic of a truly deeper/thoughtful person.


• No, don't. Any you don't have to mention your religion, or marital status either. You should advise of any disability for which you might require special equipment or what, and they aren't supposed to discriminate against you on that basis.


• Unless it is a necessary function of your interview, to determine sexual orientation, I'd leave it out. It's no ones business.


• Don't mention it. It doesn't concern them, and quite frankly, they probably don;t want to know anything at all about your sex life, whatever it may be.


• Not appropriate at all. That isn't necessary information for a job interview.


• No. That could ruing your chances of getting the job. They shouldnt care if your gay or not.


• You should keep job interviews neutral.

Job Interview Questions: POLL: Is it okay to wear skinny jeans for a job interview?

The 7 Most Common Job Interview Questions

• depends on the job


• Part time jobs, I would not believe so. :)


• I would never wear jeans to an interview.


• that's fine


• No. If you wear jeans at all to any sort of interview, make sure they're boot cut or flare.


• Depends on what the job and people are like.


• If it's for McDonald's then yes.


• I wouldn't. Even if you're looking for part time while in college, you should put your best image forward in an interview. Wear something a little more appropriate for a business environment. I'm not saying you have to wear a suit or something, but skinny jeans aren't the best idea. You only get one chance for a first impression ya know?


• Black jeans are ok if it's for a waitress job.


• umm depending on the job you are applying to.. i would wear a black pencil shirt and a green blouse with ruffles or whatever they are called
  something like this
  4.bp.blogspot.com/_u8fydAf_uGU/SW…


• It really is depending on the job. If you're going for an interview to work in Fast Food, I don't think it would matter. But even retail watches what you wear, so I would wear black dress pants.


• Yes. As long as they're black.


• It is not ok to wear skinny jeans anywhere....


• I don't think you should wear jeans to any job interview, no matter what it's for. Just think - if you and another person had an interview and you were both impossible to split then they're going to take everything into account...and if the other person is dressed more formally then they're probably going to be chosen as it would be assumed that they will be more likely to wear their uniform correctly. You would be better off to wear black dress pants or a black pencil skirt etc


• only if your interview is for hot topic or a tattoo parlor
  at least wear dark wash boot cut or straight leg or wide leg jeans.
  or tan dress pants, or tweed pants.
  i think tan pans (courdroy is fine)
  but most def not black skinny jeans. it doesnt matter if youre working at the micky d's or an internship at a large business. it is a place of business, and maybe once u get the job skinny jeans are okay, (if dresscode permits) but not for an interview

It is Important For Every Job Seeker to Know About the Job Interview

• Hi
  
  Firstly if it hasn't been covered ask what the salary is?
  Then ask what are the prospects and timescale for promotion?
  If you came up with a suggestion for saving money or improving production who would you approach with it?
  Again if not covered in the interview ask what training is available so you can improve your knowledge which in-turn will benefit the company.Stress you are eager to learn.
  Do not ask what holidays you get, you haven't got the job yet.
  
  Hope this helps.
  Geoff


• is this job commission based or do I get payed by the hour. once you're at the interview, the next step will be training if it is hourly pay. however, if it is commission pay, the next step will be another interview so then you can know not to waste your time.

Job Interview Questions: Can you bring a child to your job interview and not get turned down?

I was talking to a friend and he told me something interesting. He says that if you bring a child to a job interview, the employer cannot refuse to hire you (or at least would be afraid to) because then you can sue the company for not hiring you on the basis that they are discriminating against you because you have children. Is this really true?

never take a child to an interview. find someone to mind he/she. A child or anyone else can disrupt the opportunity to sell yourself.

8 Tips For Doing Well on Your Big Job Interview

• The call could come in at any time. Just go about your regular day but keep the phone close. Employers are so busy these days, sometimes it seems there is just not enough time in the day to get everything on the to do list done. It could be tomorrow or the next day before the employer calls back. Keep a positive attitude, keep busy ... please don't just sit around and wait.


• I would not call when they first open, when the close, or during a very busy time. I think 2 should be fine. Also if you call around 11-1 ish people could be at lunch.


• 4:52-4:55pm
  
  See how dumb that sounds? They call when they call.
