Job Interview Skills: Increase Your Skills In This Vital Area!



Recommended Answer:
Always present yourself in a professional manner! No ifs ands or butts!
there are tons of people with degrees out of work!
Put yourself in their shoes: would you rather have someone looking neat and clean to have contact with, representing your company (and by extension- your coice making capability)

Or represented be: the drippy-snot nosed kid who can't wipe his nose because he will get his handkercheif caught on his piercings (and that is assuming he knows what/ how to use a handkercheif!)

    Job Interview Questions: How can I answer a question about my felony conviction in a job interview?

    This question always comes up - either in the interview, or on the application. Answering the question always keeps me from getting the job. But, I want to be honest so that if the company hires me, they can't fire me later by saying that I lied to them. What is the best way to answer this question without jeopardizing my chance to get the job?

    10 Biggest Job Interviewing Mistakes



    Recommended Answer:
    If it comes up let them know your moved on something along the lines of,

    "I was convicted of -xxx- , and have fulfilled my obligations to the Court/Society/etc. I know that crime is wrong, and I also know that I have to try harder, and be better than the average person. I am ready to do this."

    There are employers sadly who will just who without exception won't give you the job due to the felony, that's just something you have to swallow.

    Good luck on finding a Job and rejoining Society

    Job Interviews Questions - To Ask Or Not to Ask


    • At the risk of sounding cliche, it's not what you say but how you say it.
      Make sure you first present your qualities. That way you'll be a good guy with a past conviction and not a bad guy with some qualities.
      Then be careful what words you use. For example, the army does this all the time in the media, replacing
      "our soldiers killing other soldiers of ours" with "friendly fire" or "strong bomb" with "daisy cutter".
      Just write the statement "I was convicted for..." and underline the problem words and see what you can replace them with.

    • Put yourself in their shoes and try to imagine, if you were them, what could be said to ease concerns. Don't ramble on, or get lost in the details. But give them a strong sense that this is in your past and you are a changed person.

      One way to avoid uncomfortable situations here is to include the information on any application. That way when you get called for an interview, you won't surprise them with the info.

      Good luck!

    • get a lawyer to seal it from the public then u wont have to say u had a felony because it wont even show on your background anymore

    • Felony convictions follow you forever. You're toast.

      Recommended Answer:
      Don't assume you haven't go the job until after the 7 days are over.
      You really don't know how many people they interviewed or what is going on with the person doing the hiring.
      Don't worry, and wait.

      8 Worst Job Interview Screw - Ups to Avoid


      • I really wouldn't worry too much about it, they told you 7 days, give them the 7 days. If you haven't heard anything in 7 days then call and follow up on the 8th. Show some initiative and follow up before the 7th day if you like and show the employer you are interested in the position.

        It certainly can't hurt to show some initiative.

      • I think you have an excellent chance

      Ways to Hugely Boost Your Job Interview Success Rate



      Recommended Answer:
      The question wasn't strange, it was illegal. They asked my religion! I was like....wow ok that's unprofessional. I didn't say that but I wish I had. They only asked me that because they saw that one of my jobs was at a church at a day care. Just because I worked at this church doesn't mean I went there to worship you know? Just goes to show how careless and idiotic some employers are.

      8 Worst Job Interview Screw - Ups to Avoid


      • It's hard to guess 1 employers crazy question. Be candid and relax, that will show them what you're about. They DO check credit, AND your Facebook acct (if you have one) to see how your manners are, your sentence structure, AND if you are doing/saying something that is a warning sign to them. Watch your "P's and Q's" today's unemployment means if they don't like you, there's someone they will like.
        I wasn't much help, just wanted to say those few things.

      Job Interview Questions: What kind of questions do people ask during a job interview?

      I am applying for a job at Mandy's and its my first job and job interview. I want to know some of the questions the interviewer asks the interviewee. I have never been on a job interview so I am really scared. Please help. =)

      Job Interview Success



      Recommended Answer:
      Yay! Here's the questions I've been asked and have asked myself....

      1) What experiences do you have related to this position?
      2) What experience and knowledge have you obtained? (study your resume before interview)
      3) Why are you applying for this position? (Either for advancement or to challenge your current skills in a new environment)
      4) Do you know anything about our company? (This is where you research the company and what they do, as well as what they expect their employees to do for their customers)
      5) What are your strengths and weaknesses? (make sure to give examples on how you are improving your weaknesses)
      6) Why are you leaving your current position? (Kind of like question #3 - make sure it is positive and don't say "because I hate my job / boss")

      Spell check your resume, have a friend to take a look at it as a 'second eye'.
      Practise in a mirror for eye contact.
      This part may be silly but REVIEW your resume and remember what you had written on there. It would look a bit strange when they ask you question #2 and you just read the resume. I could have easily done that for you, but they want to hear it from YOU.
      Though they may have a copy of your resume at hand, they may still ask you question #2.

      Always make sure to notify the people you've put down as a reference so they will not be surprised by receiving a call from your potential boss.

      Practise on your hand shake.
      Firm handshake, smile, eye contact.
      Dress at your best, NO torn jeans or worn out shirts!!!!! You want to impress them not make them think you're a gangsta okay? You can play gangsta at home LOL

      Thank them for their time before leaving. It is also okay to ask questions as well, such as...
      1) How soon will I hear from you?
      2) What is your dress code?
      3) Does your company provide medical benefits?
      And any other questions you may have on mind.

      Good luck!!!!
      :)

      Get Yourself Completely Prepared During Real Job Interviews With Job Interview Training Sessions


      • As it's your first interview they can't ask you about previous positions so don't worry too much. They make ask you things like:

        What has been your greatest achievement so far?

        Describe a time when you gave great service to somebody?

        Describe a time when you felt under pressure to do better?

        Things like that. If I were you I'd just make it all up! Go with your school history and describe things other people did if you can't think of anything!

      • The website linked in my sources is a webpage made for helping people with their interviews. I hope you find it useful. Good luck with your interview. Be sure to dress properly.
