I HAVE THE INTERVIEW, NOW WHAT?

We all know how difficult it is to secure an interview in the transactional nature of the employment market today. We also know what a rush it is to have one scheduled. I would like to share with you a strategy that will maximize your chances of succeeding on the interview.

The interviewer in asking him or herself while interviewing you:

• Do I like this person?
• What makes them tick?
• Can this person do the job?

Keeping those questions in mind here are my suggestions for what you need to do.

1.  Research the company. Not just the financial information, but where people worked before they worked at the company. Research the name(s) of the interviewers. Use LinkedIn, Google and other Social Media tools. It is amazing to me how little this done, but yet everyone discusses this all of the time.

2.  Bring your own structure to the interview. This is where the fun starts. Many interviewees I work with often tell me that the interviewer “asks the questions” during the interview. Cool, why can’t you also? An interview is a structured conversation and you will feel much less anxious about it if you participate in the structure by having prepared questions.

3.  Upon entering the office of where the interview will take place, be aware of any personal photographs, art, models (ships, cars, planes) and ask a question of interest. This is very powerful in establishing rapport and demonstrating how comfortable you are in your own skin!

Here are specific questions that you can ask your interviewer:

• What are the specific day to day tasks that I will be performing?
• What touch points, KPIs or goals are there in the first year?
• In your experience, what makes some one successful in this role?
• What specific skills or experience do you see in my background that you would like me to elaborate on?
• What specific challenges are you facing now? (This one will open the door for you to demonstrate how you can be a problem solver.)

These questions do not have to be asked in order. I have found that they are used most effectively at the appropriate time in the interview. It is very important for you to match the pace and tone of the interviewer also. If he or she has high energy, match that. If the interviewer is more somber, match that or know you do not want to work there anyway!

“Tell me about yourself?”  is a question that drives candidates crazy. My suggestion is to be very specific in your answer and to focus on one or two personal interests and then have a succinct statement about your career.

“Why do you want to work here?” is of the same ilk. This is where your research pays dividends. You will know about products and services the company provides and you can communicate your excitement about being part of a culture that provides those.

These techniques are just the beginning, but if you accept responsibility for executing and hold yourself accountable you will be surprised by the results. In closing, always dress professionally for the interview and delete all embarrassing content from any Social Media sites. 

Good luck in your search.

4 Tips for Getting a Job

“If you don’t know where you are going, you will wind up somewhere else!” – Yogi Berra

The vast volume of job search information on the Internet is overwhelming. From countless job search sites, to endless blogs and company career sites you could spend years just looking at all of the data. Of course the real key to finding a job is actually spending time making contacts (including applying to advertisements or search site postings). There is a fine balance between spending the time to prepare (resumes, cover letters, researching companies, etc.) versus spending the time searching (applying for jobs, searching job search sites, networking, etc.).

Schedule Your Time:

Of course it all depends whether you are looking for a job full time or if you are currently working and looking for a job in your spare time. You should set a schedule to ensure you balance your search. Doesn’t matter whether you pick specific days to do specific tasks or limit your time each day to specific tasks, the key is to plan your time. 

Like Create your Job Search Schedule...

Make Your Target List:

 Take the time to create a list of recruiters, job search sites, companies and your network. It’s worth the effort to do your research up front rather than an unorganized “hunt and peck” approach.

Advertise, Advertise, Advertise:

If no one knows you are looking for a job they can’t hire you, can they. There are many ways you can raise your profile, from LinkedIn to Job Search Sites to Company Career sites.

Search While You Sleep:

 Leverage job alerts from a selected number of job search sites and company career sites. Done correctly, you will get email notices when jobs are posted that match your search criteria.

Good luck in your search.
