Job Interview - Specific Questions for Personal People

In the Job Interview, interviewer give you Job Specific Questions, Minimum height and weight requirements are unlawful if they screen out a disproportionate number of women or minorities. Unless the employer can show that a height or weight requirement is essential for job performance, such inquiries should be avoided.

Example of Illegal Questions
How tall are you?
How much do you weigh?
(Questions about height and weight are always illegal unless
it can be proven that there are minimum requirements to do the job.)

Possible Legal Alternatives
Are you able to lift a 50-pound weight and carry it 100 yards, as that is part of the job?

www.jobinterviewquestions.org/questions/job-specific-questions.asp

Wednesday, 23 September 2009

Job Interview - Marital/ Family Status (often alludes to sexual orientation)

The purpose of these “family” inquiries is to explore what some employers believe is a common source of absenteeism and tardiness. Typically, these questions are asked only of women making the inquiry clearly unlawful. However, even if such inquiries are made of both men and women, the questions may still be suspect. Such information has been used to discriminate against women because of society’s general presumption that they are the primary care givers. If the employer’s concern is regular work attendance, a better question would be, “Is there anything that would interfere with regular attendance at work?”

Example of Illegal Questions
Are you married or do you have a permanent partner?
With whom do you live?
How many children do you have?
Are you pregnant?
Do you expect to become have
a family? When? How many children will you have?
What are your child care arrangements?

Possible Legal Alternatives
Would you be willing to relocate if necessary?
Travel is an important part of the job. Do you have any restrictions on your ability to travel?
Do you have responsibilities or commitments that will prevent you from meeting specified work schedules?
Do you anticipate any absences from work on a regular basis? If so, please explain the circumstances.
www.jobinterviewquestions.org/questions/job-specific-questions.asp

Job Interview - Illegal Interview Questions

Age based inquiries should be avoided because state law prohibits discrimination against persons age 40 and older. An age inquiry may be made to ensure a person is “old enough” to work for the job being filled, or if the job is among the few where age discrimination is permitted such as physically dangerous or hazardous work or driving a school bus.

Example of Illegal Questions
How old are you?
When is your birthday?
In what year were you born?
In what year did you graduate from college/high school?

Possible Legal Alternatives
Are you over the age of 18?
Can you, after employment, provide proof of age?

Job Interview - Is there anything you would like to ask us?

This is your opportunity to find out more about the job, the company, and the industry.
You could ask questions like:
What are the career prospects within your company?
What staff training and development opportunities are available?
Who would I be reporting to?
Where would I be located?
Avoid asking too many questions about salary and conditions of employment such as holidays but know what salary range you are prepared to accept.

www.jobinterviewquestions.org/questions/job-specific-questions.asp

Job Interview - Is there anything you would like to add?

This is an opportunity to bring particular skills or qualities to the attention of the interviewer. Have you stated your major selling points?
Were you unhappy about a particular answer during the interview? This is an opportunity to address that.
Why are you the best person for the job? Tell the interviewer!

www.jobinterviewquestions.org/questions/job-specific-questions.asp

Job Interview - Types of questions could include

Best fit between applicant and job?

What makes you the best applicant for this position? Why should the employer take you over other applicants?
Why do you think you are the best person for the job?
What are your strengths and weaknesses?
Can you give me five words that best describe you?
What skills and qualities can you bring to this position?

Job Interview - Job Question Specific

Do you want the job?

Why do you want to work for us?
What do you know about our company/practice/business?
What are your short term/long term goals?
Where do you see yourself in five years time?
Describe a time where you set yourself a challenging goal? What happened? What would you do differently?

Do you have the knowledge sets, skill sets and personal attributes to allow you to do the job?

What parts of your education do you see as relevant to this position?
What prompted you to study…..?
Tell me about a time when you had to communicate information to a group of people.
Tell me about a significant achievement in your life.

Can you give me an example of working as part of a team. What was your contribution to the team and what was the outcome of this exercise?
What would you do if…………………?
www.jobinterviewquestions.org/questions/job-specific-questions.asp

Avoid Question in the Job Interview

In the job interview, Job seekers should understand the Job interview Questions deeply. Regulations and US Law provide extensive protection against discrimination in employment. Many companies and organizations you will encounter state explicitly that they follow Equal Opportunity Employer guidelines. Basically, this means that they do not discriminate on the basis of age, gender, marital status, religion, or sexual orientation, to name a few.

The Persons with Disabilities Acts also specifically protects people with physical or mental disabilities or handicaps in addition to providing special accommodations for them (e.g. wheelchair access). Because of these laws, organizations are increasingly careful about the way in which they ask questions in interviewing; no one wants to be the subject of a lawsuit claiming discriminatory hiring practices. Generally, employers must focus on what they need to know to ascertain whether the candidate is capable of doing the job. All questions must be directly relevant to the job for which the candidate is applying.

While no specific federal, state, or local entity specifically provides a list of illegal interview questions, there is sufficient precedent (legal history) in court rulings, legislative decisions, regulations, and constitutional laws to govern certain categories of questions. Some of these questions may be perfectly acceptable outside of the US and so, may appear to be benign.

As an interviewee, you should be aware of the types of questions that may be problematic in the US as well as how to handle them in an interview. Bear in mind that both law and precedents continue to change. Therefore, the list of potentially illegal questions (or their legal counterparts) presented here is in no way exhaustive.

The Interview Question for Bank to Indentify

When you face job interview you can Use the Interview Question Bank to identify possible interview questions by reviewing the requirements/duties of the job.

1. The interview questions for each interview are based on the knowledges, skills and abilities required to perform the job. Underline the key knowledges, skills and abilities from the job description.
2. Review the sample interview questions and answer tips under each of the underlined key knowledges, skills and abilities in the Job Function Index.
3. Review additional sample interview questions in the Career/Job Index.
4. Review sample interview questions specific to the job in our Mock Interviews.
5. Notice how small changes in the interview question will change your answer. Review each interview question to give you the confidence to answer any question that may be asked.

Review the toughest interview questions and answers from Matt & Nan DeLuca, authors of the best selling “Best Answers to the 201 Most Frequently Asked Interview Questions” and “More Best Answers to the 201 Most Frequently Asked Interview Questions” at the Interview In Depth Index.

Mistakes During The Job Interview are Like Mistakes in Business

As a job searcher you have to pay attention on the things that you have to avoid in the job interview.Please don’t do these things

I’m Going to Be Late for the Interview!
I Don’t Know How to Answer the Question!
I Forgot to Bring Copies of My Resume!
I Called the Recruiter by the Wrong Name!

“Mistakes during the job search are like mistakes in business. They should be addressed — not dwelled on”.

How to Your Turning the Tables on a Bad Job Interviewer

You’re wearing your best suit. Shoes shined. Resume in hand. You’ve prepared for any interview question that could come your way.
But rather than questions, there are awkward pauses. Stony silences. There’s a seeming lack of interest in the entire event — on the interviewer’s part.
Just because someone is interviewing you, doesn’t mean they’re a good interviewer. Don’t let his ignorance sabotage your interview or your chances at landing the position.
A Day in the Life
As your bad interview lumbers on, don’t wait until your interviewer asks you if you have any questions. Rather, at the first awkward pause, ask him to describe the position for which you’re applying in rich detail. What would your key responsibilities be? What is a typical day like? What time does the workday begin and end? Would you need to be available after hours or on weekends? Is there any travel involved?
Inquire as to which coworkers you’d be working with. Ask about how people work and projects are managed. Are there many meetings? Do people work on projects in teams?
Ask your interviewer what qualities he thinks the ideal candidate for this position would have.
Toot Your Own Horn
A poor interviewer will likely omit asking you many of the “right” questions, particularly those about how your experience makes you a great fit for the position.
So, although it may seem awkward, the only way you’ll get to point this out is to just go ahead and do so. Even if there’s no good time to do it, just do it anyway. You can preface your comments by saying something to the effect of, “I wanted to take a moment to let you know how my experience really complements this position.”
Be direct and to the point. Make eye contact at all times. Talk specifically about how you have the skills and knowledge for the position. Do not ramble or your interviewer could lose interest.
Enough About Me…
The best interviews are often those in which you’re able to forge a real connection with your interviewer. But if he doesn’t know what he’s doing, that may seem next to impossible…unless you start asking questions about your interviewer and his career.
Inquire as to how he came to work at the company, ask him how he likes it. Ask about where he started his career and what attracted him to this particular industry or area of expertise. Try to discover what his professional aspirations are.
At all times, show enthusiasm and interest in his responses (no matter how boring or brief they may be).
Show and Tell
If you still need to buy more face time with your interviewer, ask for a tour of the offices or facility. Again, ask questions along the way, even if it’s about how long the company has been at that particular location.
Try to get your interviewer to introduce you to other people who work there — those with whom you’ll work closely, someone in management, or even just folks you pass during your tour.
Now is an ideal time to use the knowledge you have about the company to offer up insightful observations and flattering acknowledgments about the organization and how it’s run.
Finally, be sure to ask your interviewer when he anticipates making a decision. Reiterate your interest in the position and your enthusiasm for the company. Thank him graciously for his time, both in person and in a prompt thank-you

Get The Second Interview in The Job Interview

The Employer’s Point of View
From an employer’s perspective, the second interview is a chance to closely evaluate a candidate’s abilities and interpersonal skills. Your prospective employer wants to see that you can do the job and work well with colleagues.
Be aware that many employers bring in several candidates on the same day to streamline the second interview process. Your challenge is to distinguish yourself from the other candidates.
To show you’re a good fit with the company, focus on explaining how your abilities and experiences would enable you to do the job. Be specific. Offer concrete examples that highlight your competence and compatibility.
Who You’ll Meet
On your first interview, you probably met with one or two people. This time, be prepared to meet several more over the course of the day, including potential managers, coworkers and other staff members.
You may meet individually with several people, who will most likely ask you similar questions. Keep your answers consistent but mix up your delivery so that your answers don’t sound stale or staged. If possible, before the interview acquire a list of the people you’ll be meeting with and do a little research on each one. Then ask questions that show your knowledge of each person.
If you meet with a panel or group, be sure to make eye contact with both the individual asking the question and the group as a whole.
Steps for Follow Up
It’s rare to receive an offer on the spot, but it does happen occasionally. If the feedback is consistently positive over the course of the day, you may get a job offer at the end of the interview. If that happens, don’t make a hasty decision. Ask for time to think about it.
If you don’t get an offer, be sure to immediately send a brief thank you note to every person you spoke with. Some companies make hiring decisions in a matter of days, but many can take weeks to make their final choice.
Be patient, be flexible and be ready for an offer or an invitation for yet another interview.

One of The Questions Would Be Asked in Job Interview

“What are your strengths and weaknesses?”
“Why did you leave your last position?”
“Can you describe a previous work situation in which you … ?”
“What is your ideal work environment?”
“How do you handle mistakes?”
“”What is your most notable accomplishment?”

The Best Amazing Tips to Get Called Back by Phone Interviews

Find a Happy Place
In the absence of sight, hearing becomes sharper. And interviewers can easily hear distraction over the phone.
Once you’ve scheduled a phone interview, locate a calm, quiet place where you can focus. Make sure you’re not near a computer, TV or anything that will draw your attention away from the interview. Tell anyone who has access to the space that you are not to be disturbed unless catastrophe strikes.
Next, have a pen and paper handy to take notes during your interview. You should also have a copy of your resume so that when the interviewer refers to your experience, you can both literally be on the same page.
Finally, consider your attire, particularly if you’re interviewing from your home. It’s your prerogative to wear sweats, but may we suggest something closer to business attire? You’ll feel more professional — and, thus, you’ll sound more professional.

Getting to Your Interview Gear Ready

Minor Matters in Your Job Interview
Lay out your clothing in advance. You don’t want to be frantically searching for a missing sock or clean shirt on the day of the interview.
Make sure your outfit is clean and neatly pressed and take care of other time-consuming chores (polishing your shoes, trimming your nails) the day before the interview if possible.
Also, gather all the other important materials you’ll need for the interview in one place, where you will be sure not to forget them. You might include copies of your resume, references and directions.

How To Be The Master in Job Interview

PREPARATION
When you walk into an interview, the more prepared you are, the better the chances are that you’ll succeed. Memorize everything you put on your resume and cover letter and be prepared to explain each item. But you should also be ready to talk about more than just yourself. Get to know your future employer.

PRESENTATION IS PARAMOUNT
Keep in mind that you are marketing yourself to everyone you meet. The more people you leave with a good impression, the better your chances are of being remembered. Project yourself as someone who is thoughtful, helpful, and prepared.
Effective presentation includes being in the right place, at the right time. If you’re late for the interview, you could inadvertently tell your interviewer that you’re not right for the job.

PERCEPTION IS KEY
The best way to know if your interviewer is getting what he needs is to ask questions. Susan Vobejda, the VP of Marketing at HotJobs elaborates, “When your interviewer asks you a complicated question, don’t launch into your answer straightaway. Make certain you understand what is being asked.” A clarifying question, or restating the question in your own words saves you from wasting your interviewer’s time, and demonstrates that your are a careful listener. Asking the right questions can also demonstrate your ability to think strategically, and help you decide if the position is right for you. To that end, Stagg suggests ending the interview with this question: “What are you looking for in a candidate to fill this role?” If the answer turns out to be something that doesn’t match your expectations, then you need to speak up

How to Your Explain a Layoff at Every Stage of the Job Search

Read this is best articles about how to achieve these goals at all stages of the job hunt, in writing and in person:
• Resumes and Cover Letters. Most career experts say you shouldn’t mention a layoff at all in a cover letter.
“A cover letter is strictly to market yourself,” says Marianne Adoradio, a career counselor in Silicon Valley. “‘Here’s what you’re looking for, here’s what I bring.’”
• Networking and Interviews. Face-to-face communication is critical, both in informal conversations with people while networking and in formal job interviews. This is where questions about your layoff will likely come up, and you need to be prepared with two answers: one about why you left your job, and one about what you did during the time you were unemployed.
“If it’s the first time it happened to you, it’s going to feel awful,” says Libby Pannwitt, a career counselor and principal of Work Life Design Group in San Carlos, California. “You need to get over it and find the right words to talk about it wherein there were no bad guys

The Best Questions by the Interviewer

This is one of the best question for you in your job interview:

The Recruiter: The ‘Big Picture’ Person
It’s the recruiter’s job to identify strong candidates and guide them through the hiring process. Think of the recruiter as the “big picture” person. They can give you an overview of the company and the department as a whole. (Save very specific questions about the job for the hiring manager.) The recruiter is also the best person to answer questions about the hiring process.
Some questions to ask the recruiter:
•How would you describe the company culture?
•What type of employees tend to excel at this company?
•Can you tell me more about the interview process?
The Hiring Manager: Your Future Boss
The hiring manager will likely supervise you if you get the job. They’re the most knowledgeable people about the position and its requirements. You should direct specific questions about the job, its responsibilities and its challenges to them. You may also want to ask what kind of candidate they’re seeking.
Some questions to ask the hiring manager:
•What are the most important skills for the job?
•How would you describe your ideal candidate?
•What’s a common career path at the company for someone in this role?
The Executive: The Industry Expert
Senior managers and executives are likely to be most knowledgeable about the latest happenings in their industry. If you’ll be working closely with an executive, you can ask them some specifics about the job. But you should focus most of your questions on the future of the company and the industry. This is your chance to show off your industry knowledge!
Some questions to ask a senior manager or executive:
•How do you think this industry will change in the next five years?
•What do you think gives this company an edge over its competitors?
•What’s the company’s biggest challenge? How is it planning to meet that challenge?
The Coworker: The Straight-Talker
Some interviews will also include a meeting with a potential coworker — the interviewer most likely to “tell it how it is.” A potential colleague may be most candid about the job, its challenges and the work environment. However, don’t expect inside information — and certainly don’t ask for it.
Some questions to ask a potential coworker:
•What’s a typical day like in the department?
•How would you describe the work environment at the company?
•What’s the most enjoyable part of your job? What’s the most challenging part?

How to Your Handle Illegal Interview Questions in the Job search

Three Ways to Answer Illegal Interview Questions:
•Just answer the question. If you don’t mind providing the information and you don’t want to make waves, you can respond to the question and move on to the next one. Keep in mind, however, that you should only answer the question if you truly are comfortable providing the information — it could come back to haunt you.
•Refuse to answer the question. Inform the interviewer that the question doesn’t seem to be legal or relevant to the specific requirements of the job. Be forewarned, though, that such a direct response should really be saved for questions that are offensive or deeply troubling.
•Don’t answer the question, but answer the intent behind the question. This is usually the best option, since it allows you to provide a tactful answer without sacrificing your rights. To answer the intent behind the question, try to figure out what the interviewer REALLY wants to know. For example, if the interviewer asks if you are a U.S. citizen (which is an illegal question), a smart answer would be, “If you mean to ask if I am legally authorized to work for you, the answer is yes.” In cases like these, it’s best to rephrase the question into a legal one and then answer it. This displays flexibility and composure — strong job skills.

Job Interview - How to Get Answers to 5 Key Questions Before Taking a Job Interview

Three times during his career, Leslie G. Griffen has asked a prospective employer whether he can walk around the company and talk with employees about how they like their jobs. Twice the employers gave him the go-ahead, which told Griffen they were confident their employees were happy. One employer balked - a sign that this was not a good match.
“Most companies will talk the talk. They’ll talk about how important employees are,” says Griffen, who is now principal of The Griffen Group, which provides human resources and career coaching and consulting services, in Lee’s Summit, Mo. How an employer responds to this request is almost as telling as the answers employees give. “If they pull back in their chair and say, ‘You want what?’ it’s probably an indication that they might not be being straight up with you.”
When you’re considering taking a new job, it’s important to find out how a potential employer treats employees. But getting the answer to that question, along with others that will help you determine if you’ll be happy at the company, may take some sleuthing. Here are five questions that will help you decide if the company is a fit - and some unconventional ways to find the answers:
• What makes employees join this company and stay here? You can always ask your potential manager this question in an interview. But if you ask the employees you see while walking around the premises, as Griffen did, you’ll get a wider variety of answers - and possibly more honest ones.
• How are people treated here? You may not even need to ask anyone this - just observe carefully from the time you set foot in the building. When you arrive for your interview, are you kept waiting with no explanation? Does the interviewer interrupt your conversation to take phone calls? “Try to come at different times if you have multiple interviews,” advises Gail Ginder, a leadership coach with the Claros Group in Healdsburg, Calif. That way you’ll see if the mood around the building changes with the time of day.
• What are the unspoken rules? For this and other questions that are best asked of employees, you have two options. One is to use your network to find employees who work at the company but aren’t involved in hiring you. The other is to ask your interviewer - but only when it’s clear that the interviewer has decided you’re the best candidate and is trying to get you to sign on. “When they’ve decided you’re the one, you can ask pretty much anything as long as you ask it well,” Ginder says.
• What happens when people make mistakes? The answer to this will give you insight into the company’s management and culture. You can ask it of an interviewer late in the interview process, or ask employees who aren’t involved in hiring. The key is to pose the question without sounding like someone who is planning to make a lot of mistakes. Use humor, Ginder advises. “Say, ‘If I were lucky enough to be offered this job, I would never want to make a mistake. But what happens here when people make a mistake?’”
• What is a typical week like? The answer to this question can give insight into everything from how long the workdays are to how many after-hours phone calls you can expect. Vic Snyder, senior career counselor at the University of Washington’s Center for Career Services in Seattle, suggests that in informal conversations with employees, you pair this question with one about how often employees take their full vacations.

How to Manage Your Stress in the Job Interview

If you get a call to attend a job interview then you would imagine the stress these interviews. Here are tips to reduce stress in a job interview:

Early Warning
Timing is everything: Don’t cause yourself undue stress before a big interview.
Arrive about 10 minutes before the interview is scheduled to begin.
If you arrive too early, you’ll sit and wait and worry. And if you arrive too late, you may find yourself racing in the door, your heart already pounding from a last-minute dash.
A ten-minute, pre-interview break will give you an opportunity to catch your breath and acclimate to your surroundings. It’s enough time, but not too much time.
Picture This
You can make your dream a reality. Use your imagination to stay calm during a job interview.
Visualization is a relaxation technique in which you create a mental image of a stressful or challenging situation. Then you imagine yourself succeeding in the situation. By doing so, you’re mentally preparing to handle the event in real life.
You can practice visualization in the days, hours or even minutes before an interview. Simply close your eyes and breathe deeply. Picture yourself greeting the interviewer confidently and answering tough questions with ease.
Practice succeeding in your imagination, and soon you’ll be doing it in reality.
Relax
A relaxed job candidate is a confident job candidate.
Show the interviewer that you’re calm, composed and in command during an interview. He’s likely to assume that you’ll be rock-solid on the job too.
Use these tips to stay relaxed during an interview:
•Breathing deeply and slowly (and quietly, of course).
•Sit up straight and don’t cross your legs or arms.
•Speak slowly and pause for breath often.
•Keeps your hands and jaw relaxed; no clenching.
•Smile — it really is contagious!
Pause, Don’t Panic
In every interview, there comes a moment that doesn’t go according to plan. There’s an awkward silence. You stumble over your words. You flub a tough question.
Don’t panic. Now’s the time to put your relaxation skills into overdrive.
It’s much easier to control fear and panic as it starts to build than to calm yourself down once they’ve begun to spiral out of control.
When you feel yourself starting to panic and lose focus, pause. Tell yourself silently that you can do this. Take a deep breath. Refocus. And then resume interviewing.
A quick ten-second pause can be all you need to regain your composure and get back in control. And the interviewer likely won’t even notice

How to Your Answer in the Toughest Interview Questions in the job search

If you follow the job search there are several questions that must be asked in job interviews is:

You know they’re coming: Those seemingly unanswerable questions that pop up during job interviews.
You can’t clam up. And you don’t want to stutter and stammer. So what’s a job seeker to do?
The ‘Future’ Question
Otherwise known as the “big picture” question, the future question goes something like this: “Where do you see yourself in five years?”
The best tactic: Talk about your values.
Don’t get too detailed about your specific career plan. Instead, discuss things that are important to you professionally and how you plan to achieve them. If growth is a goal, mention that. You can also talk about challenge, another value that employers prize in their employees.
The ‘Salary’ Question
Most people will tell you that whoever answers this question first loses. But that’s not necessarily true.
When an interviewer asks your salary requirement, try first to gently deflect the question by inquiring about the salary for the position.
If the interviewer presses you for a number, give a range. To decide on a range, think about the salary you want, your salary at your most recent position and the industry-standard salary for the job.
The bottom line: The salary question is one of the most important, so you should prepare for it in advance and plan what to say.
The ‘Why’ Question
There’s a fine line between boastful and confident. And you need to learn it.
When an interviewer asks you why they should hire you, you’re going to have speak confidently and honestly about your abilities. But you should avoid sounding overly boastful.
Aim for earnest and prepare by practicing. That’s right: Stand in front of the mirror and acknowledge your abilities and accomplishments to your reflection. Tell yourself: I have a very strong work ethic. I have integrity. I have excellent industry contacts. I aggressively pursue my goals.
It’s sometimes hard to praise yourself, but after a few sessions you’ll sound sincere.
The Seemingly Silly Question
If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be? What if you were a car? Or an animal?
These type of questions can bring your interview to a screeching halt.
First, don’t panic. Pause and take a deep breath. Then remind yourself that there’s no “right” answer to these questions. The job isn’t hinging on whether you choose to be a spruce versus an oak.
Interviewers usually ask these questions to see how you react under pressure and how well you handle the unexpected. It’s not so important what type of tree (or car, or animal) you choose as that you explain your choice in a way that makes you look favorable.
So, be a spruce — because you want to reach new heights in your career. Or be an oak — because you plan to put down roots at the company. Either way, you’ll get it right.

Questions to Ask in the job search as a Potential Manager

On Happiness of the job sometimes comes down to one person: Your manager.
Your manager can matter more than money, title or benefits. People don’t always quit jobs, they sometimes quit bosses. Many workers leave a position because they’re unhappy with their bosses.
On the other hand, if you genuinely like and respect your boss, your job can be rewarding, fulfilling and even fun. But how can you ensure that you and your potential boss will get along?
While there are no guarantees, you can often recognize a boss who’s right for you — if you ask the right questions.

A Job Interview Is Not an Interrogation

An Interview Strategy: Telling Stories

A Job Interview Is Not an Interrogation

If you read many books on job interviews, you’ll notice that some feed you lists of interview questions that you should learn answers to. But an interview is not an interrogation; it’s a conversation. Thus, I believe the best way to prepare for an interview is to come armed with a multitude of small stories about both your business and personal life.
Conversation Wins the Job
Competency-based interviews, as opposed to traditional interviews, have become more common today. In a traditional interview, the interviewer will ask you questions focused on whether you have the skills and knowledge needed to do the job. A competency-based interview goes further by asking you additional questions about your character and personal attributes that can better determine whether you fit their corporate culture. These are called “behavioral competencies.”
A competency-based interviewer will spend about half the interview on your job skills, and about half on your behavioral competencies. He or she will be looking for evidence of how you have acted in real situations in the past. So having your stories ready to go, and discussing them during a conversation between two equals, plays very well for this type of interview.
Quoted from Joe Turner

Tips in Job Search

More Keywords
Use specific terms to describe exactly what you’re looking for. More general terms will give a larger number of results, so try to narrow your search. For example, try sales representative instead of sales.
Excluding Words
To exclude words, type a minus sign - in front of them. No jobs containing those words will show up in your results. For example, if you want to see marketing jobs with no mention of sales search for marketing -sales.
Word Order
To search for an exact phrase, just put quotation marks around two or more words. For example, search on “administrative assistant” (typing the quotation marks into the box).
Related Searches
We’ll make some suggestions too. If job titles you’ve entered have a similar title, links to related searches will appear under Related Job Titles at the top of your results page.

What if I’m not ready to look for a job?

Go to learn more about jobs. Employers are impressed when freshmen and sophomores introduce themselves at career fairs. Part of the point is to learn more about what employers have to offer. Fairs are rare opportunities to talk with lots of people and learn about jobs straight from the source. You still need to do some research (see before you go, above) and have good interpersonal skills (see at the job fair, above). The difference is that your goal is to get career information, not get a job (yet).

At the Career for Employee

Watch your manners and mannerisms — all those things your parents drilled into you when you were a child (and a few more). Stand up straight, don’t hang your mouth open, don’t fidget, do speak up and speak clearly, don’t chew gum or smell like smoke. Have a good handshake and make good eye contact.
Don’t be misled into thinking of the fair as a social event. Employers often send recently hired new graduates to career fairs. Don’t fall into the mistake of interacting on a social level and forgetting that you are being judged on your potential to function in the work environment.
Carry a simple padfolio to keep your resumes organized and ready. Some fairs have you check your bags at the door because the event is crowded. Be ready to hand employers the appropriate resume (see You might need to prepare more than one version, above). Be prepared for employers to give you literature and give-away items (pens, cups, t-shirts, etc.) — this is typical at fairs (sometimes they give you a bag to carry the give-aways). Bottom line is that you want to look like an organized person because that’s an asset in an employee.
Have an open mind. You may have 12 employers on your target list to speak with. If you have extra time, or have to wait to speak with an employer, take advantage of the opportunity to chat with other employers who aren’t busy. You might learn something to your advantage to your surprise. At the least, you’ll be practicing initiating a conversation in a less formal business environment — and this is an essential skill in any work environment.
This is your opportunity to be evaluated on more than just your resume. In many aspects of the job search, your resume (and cover letter) is (are) all the employer sees to determine whether to interview you. At a fair, you have an opportunity to stand out in person in a way that you might not on your resume. Interpersonal skills, communication skills and work-place-appropriate social skills are critical. Many employers evaluate these skills heavily, because they want to hire people who can make a good impression on their clients and customers.
Handshakes are critical. Excellent article on this topic:

Before You Go to Job Interview

Know which employers are attending.
See the career fair / job fair list. The sponsor of each fair is listed (Career Services sponsors Connection Co-op & Internship Fair and Education Expo; other fairs are sponsored by other colleges or departments). You’ll see links to the web site for each fair (if there is one), and you should find a list of the attending employers with other relevant information — like positions for which they are hiring and majors sought. If there’s no information within a month of the fair, contact the sponsor and ask.
Go to any fair where the employers and their jobs interest you, regardless of your major and who is sponsoring the fair. (You don’t have to be in the college that is sponsoring the fair; just see if the employers attending are looking for people with your background or interests.)
Do enough research to make “A” &”B” lists of employers to meet.
Depending on the fair and how many employers interest you, you might not have time to speak with every employer (and every employer may not be offering what you seek). You don’t need to study employers’ financial reports to prepare, but you do need to have some sense of what the organization does, and if there is a fit between your skills and interests and the employer’s needs. Also, if you’re looking for more than one type of job — like technical sales or production management — you’ll need to know which employers are looking for what so you can give each employer an appropriate resume….
Have plenty of copies of your resume ready. You might need to prepare more than one version.
Always take paper resumes to a career / job fair, even if you submitted your resume in advance to a resume book for the fair. Job fair resume books are often online and the employer won’t have access while speaking to you. Even if the employer has a print resume book in hand, she won’t waste time looking up your resume on the spot.
And if you’re looking for more than one type of position, each being significantly different (like marketing or human resources), you may need two different versions of your resume, each tailored to support the different objective. This doesn’t mean you need an individualized resume for each employer at a fair. It simply means when you speak to an employer and say you’re interested in a certain kind of work, don’t hand the employer a resume that has nothing to do with that kind of work. (Nothing wrong with an employer giving you a new idea on the spot — be flexible and respond appropriately.)
Be prepared that some employers cannot accept hard copy resumes and will ask you to apply online. This is to comply with federal regulations about the way employers keep data on applicants.
February 2006 federal regulations had an impact on employers, online job hunters, and how status as a job candidate is determined. In order to comply with these regulations, many employers are requiring all job applicants to apply for jobs online on the employer’s web site.
This does not mean the employer is giving you the brush-off, and it does not mean the employer is wasting time by attending the fair and talking with you. The employer reps may well be taking note of candidates — you and others — in whom they are interested, but they have to follow certain procedures to comply with law.
See more about this at on CNN Money.com:
Job hunting online gets trickier February 6, 2006
(Link leaves Career Services web site; opens in a new browser window.)
Prepare a 20 to 30 second introduction to use with employers. You don’t want to sound like a telephone solicitor reading a script; you do want to sound like you thought about why you’re there. It might be something like, “Hello. I’m Daria Henderson, a junior in Communication Studies and Marketing. I’m looking for an internship related to marketing for next summer. I read on your web site that (name of company) has an internship program in your corporate marketing department, and would really like to learn more about this program.” Get the idea? Keep in mind that some employer representatives may take control of the conversation quickly and you may do more listening than speaking, but you do want to be prepared to be proactive rather than passive.
Know the dress code. Each fair has its own styles and traditions. Some are business casual; some suggest or require interview attire. (Club/date attire is not appropriate.) Again, see what the fair sponsor says about attire on their web site or other promotional materials. If they don’t tell, contact the fair sponsor and ask.

Why you go for an Interview?

To make a good (or great) impression in person (especially important if your resume doesn’t necessarily stand out from the crowd).
To see that the real world is not organized by major: you don’t have to be a Business major to go to Business Horizons, and you don’t have to be an engineering major to go to Engineering Expo. You DO have to look at the list of employers attending in advance (see each fair’s web site linked from the career / job fair list), and see what kinds of jobs each employer has.
To learn more about employers than you can learn from their web site. You learn about the culture of an organization when you meet their people, and you can ask questions.
Much of the job search process — before you can even get an interview — for both you, the job seeker, and for the employer in trying to find good candidates, is not done in person. It involves employers screening resumes and cover letters, and you reading about employers and viewing their web sites, and the like. Take advantage of opportunities to meet employers face-to-face.
Some fairs include follow-up interviewing as part of the fair, for a full or half day. Each fair’s web site should tell you if they do this.
Some of the employers who attend career fairs also participate in the On-Campus Interviewing Program. Meeting students in person at fairs gives them another way of screening candidates besides just the resume you submit for On-Campus Interviewing.
Regardless of the extent to which technology makes it easier and faster to share information between job seekers and employers, nothing replaces in-person contact for making an impression.
To be effective at a career fair, you need to be ready to make a good impression in person (just as you will be evaluating organizations by the way their representatives behave in person). To do this…

Timely Follow-up in Your Job Search

This last domino is as important as the first; if you don’t follow-up and follow-through you might not be successful in your job search.
Follow-up includes:
• calling employers and asking for an interview;
• returning phone calls;
• sending out cover letters and resumes when asked to do so;
• writing thank you letters to anyone that has helped you in your search or who you have met;
• writing acceptance or declining letters to job offers.

Quoted from Katharine Hansen and Randall S. Hansen, Ph.D.

The Strong Interviewing Skills in Job Search

No matter how introverted you may be, anyone can learn to interview well. It simply takes learning some basic rules and then practicing and refining your technique as much as possible.
But, remember that no matter how good your marketing preparation, cover letter, and resume may be, you can’t get a job without a good interview.
Some basic facts about the interview:
•first impressions are key;
•the interviewer reaches a decision about you in the first five minutes;
•good interpersonal skills are extremely important;
•dress for success is more than a cliche…know the appropriate dress code — and dress for success;
•you need to try and control the tempo and flow of the interview…don’t just respond, but initiate;
•prepare for both traditional and behavioral-based interview questions;
•prepare questions to appear proactive;
•remember that you are selling a product — yourself — so don’t be modest.

Get practice with various types of interviewing styles by taking advantage of our Job Interview Questions Database. For all other information about interviewing, including information on traditional and behavioral interviewing, follow this link to Quintessential Careers: Interviewing Resources

Quoted from Katharine Hansen and Randall S. Hansen, Ph.D.

Excellent Resume in Job Search

A resume is a document that describes your work experience, your education (and any special training you have), and your skills. What makes an excellent resume, however, is marketing. You have to consider yourself a product, with the employer as the buyer…why should the employer buy (hire) you? Your resume is a key marketing tool in your employment search.
The keys to a successful resume are:
• it clearly identifies you;
• it provides a means for the employer to contact you;
• it identifies your career skills, interests, and strengths;
• it focuses on your key accomplishments (not duties and responsibilities)
• it highlights your educational success(es);
• it uses action verbs;
• it’s no longer than one page for college grads and no more than two for everyone else.

Ready to take a stab at writing that excellent resume? To get help in writing a traditional resume, go to our Fundamentals of a Good Chronological Resume.

Want a professional evaluation of your current resume — or perhaps have a professional resume writer craft a new resume for you? Please go to Quintessential Resumes and Cover Letters, where you’ll recieve personalized attention, excellent service, and professional guidance — all at reasonable prices!

The Presenting Yourself at Job Interviews

When going for an interview it is vital that you have prepared. Your CV or application form will be central to this preparation - they are going to be using this as their base with which to quiz you. Make sure that you have read your CV and familiarised yourself with periods of employment, education etc. If you were out of work for any time think about why this was and refresh your memory about what made you make the choices evident on your CV regarding jobs and education. This will all mean that should you be asked about any of this in the interview it will roll off the tongue and impress the interviewer with your communication skills. It will also help you be confident before entering - helping you appear more natural and confident - all essential attributes to a successful interview.
Know where you are going!
This may sound silly but if you are vague about how to get there this will only stress you out on the day of the interview and could make you arrive late if you get lost. It is well worth planning and even practising the journey before the day so that is one less thing to worry about. It is also helpful to be able to visualise where it is you are going when preparing for the interview as it takes away the pressure of ‘the unknown’.
What you are going to wear - make sure you are comfortable.
Although it is usually essential to look smart, don’t buy high heels, for example, if you have never worn them before. This will only make you look uncomfortable - which will not help your self-confidence or their first impression.
Have some questions organised for the interviewers.
This shows that you are keen to find out more and that you are asserting yourself - not just meekly presenting yourself to them.
Do some research.
Learning about the background of the organisation before the interview can only help you get the job. Firstly, it will fill in any gaps you may have in knowing about the organisation: its aims, objectives and values, so you know who you will be working for should you get the position. Researching will also help you feel more confident before the interview as you are less likely to be thrown by anything they reveal about themselves. It will also stop you asking questions in the interview that the interviewer may think are obvious. Instead, you are more likely to ask pertinent and insightful questions without realising it, due to the knowledge you already have. It will also show the interviewer what an assertive, resourceful and keen person you are!
