Job Search & The Interview Process
The Job Interview
The second step in getting a job is having an interview with a
potential employer. The first step was sending your application
and after careful review by the company, you are seen as
candidate for the vacant position.
The employer got this information through an ad that was placed
in the paper, referred by someone in the company or a
headhunter, or by a person who simply submitted an application
via the company's website.
The first impression employers always look at is your resume.
Given the many that apply, this usually takes about 30 seconds
and so with the limited words, one must be sure that the resume
is well written and grammatically correct.
During the interview, most employers want to know more about
person since the resume only gives certain information such as
the person's name, age, address, contact number, social security
number, past and current employment.
The employer will likely ask about the experiences, lessons and
accomplishments one has done and learned working for another
employer. This will usually include how the person handled a
situation in the company, the challenges of the job and the
relationship with coworkers.
Another question will be the relationship between the applicant
and family members. This shows character with how the person
interacts with people who are close and
those that know the
person for a long time.
The employer will usually ask why the person applied in the
company and where you would like to be in 5 to 10 years. Long
term questions such as this will show if there is dedication for
the job at hand and if the company can provide something
beneficial for both the applicant and the employer.
Companies follow a certain budget in hiring qualified personnel
which is why the interviewer will ask how much one desires to
get for the job. If what is being asked is too high, the
employer will usually ask if the salary is open to negotiation.
After the employer asks questions, room is usually given for the
applicant to ask questions in return. This is the best time to
know a little bit more the company one might be working in and
to get a feel of the potential company.
If there are no more questions, the interviewer will then end
the meeting and call the applicant back if the person has passed
the initial interview so that the next phase of the application
process can begin.
