Interviewing Interviewer needs to answer this question: Why should I hire this person? Interviewee needs to convince interviewer: I am the best person for this position because……(skills, abilities, accomplishments, goals, knowledge, experience, etc. that provide evidence).

Interview Skills Answer questions completely and directly Go alone Smile and introduce yourself Listen carefully Maintain eye contact Keep all comments positive Know the job requirements and the company before the interview Match your strengths to the job Arrive early

Job Application Knowledge The application you turn in will become you on paper: Read the entire application first Complete a draft copy on a separate piece of paper Complete NEATLY using a pen with black ink Do not leave any questions blank Proofread for errors or mistakes

Workplace Etiquette Offer help when someone else needs it Be positive about work and employees Be aware of personal hygiene Keep personal matters out of the workplace Respect cultural differences Be on time or EARLY! Ask for help when needed Dress appropriately

Networking Talking to people about your job search and your skills Who? Friends, neighbors, teachers, career center personnel, employers, acquaintances, coaches, etc. Ask: –Do you know any openings for a person with my skills? –Do you know of someone else who might know of such an opening? –Do you know someone who knows lots of people?

Information Interviewing Opposite of an employer interview: You ask the employer questions to get information about the job. Five Basic Rules: –Ask questions; do not talk about yourself –Keep the interview brief-20 minutes or less –Ask for the employers advice to people entering the field –Ask for another contact to interview –Send a thank you note
