When you are out of money, you have to get a job or
simply marry a rich spouse and live happily ever after in
your wonderland world.
Generally speaking, it does not matter whether it is a
full-time job or part-time job, as long it is a job that
pays you.
Here are some useful tips that you should take note during
job interviews.
What do you wear depends on the nature of this job that
you are going to interview.
Normally, an office casual wear is compulsory for a
9-5 office job; strict rules- no sneakers, T-Shirts,
singlet or slippers.
Try not to wear revealing dress; your prospective employer
may think you are out for a pub or trying to seduce him.
Nevertheless, right etiquette is still compulsory in job
interview too.
Whatever job you land upon, solely depends on your right
behavior, professionalism and how you communicate with
the society, in addition to your highest educational
certificates.
Everyone should know that when you are waiting for your
turn to be interview, you should turn off your phone in
order to avoid persisting phone calls that will definitely
interrupt your job interview session.
It is impolite to answer your phone calls while making your
interviewer wait for you to finish it.
If the call is important, turn off the ringing sound to
“Silent Mode” so that you could return the person’s
call later.
When you write a personal resume for your job interview,
remember to proofread your letter/email’s spelling errors,
grammatical mistakes and make sure you have the abilities
and talents that this required.
In addition to it, do get the name of the person in charge
correct and the name of the company too.
prepare yourself with some basic knowledge of the
company background and related information of the post
that you are seeking for.
Some interviewers may ask you non-related topics
to the job; such as current news in the
world or your personal opinion of a certain subject.
Do your homework on this information so that it may be
useful to you when you stumble upon hard core questions
that your interviewer deliberately asked.
This is to ensure that you have the knowledge and ability
to handle difficult situation that props out in critical
problems.
Hence, the interviewer will know whether you are suitable
for the job.
Whether you are a man or a lady, please check your zipper
before you enter the interview room.
Men are prone to be forgetful to pull up the zipper after a
pee while ladies zipper is usually located at the side, the
front or the backside of the dress/skirt.
Make it a habit to touch your front pant’s zipper to make
sure that the zipper does not “unzip” by itself.
This situation usually happens after a meal or you have too
much fat on your tummy area.
Your zipper could not hold on to your weight.
Never leave a bad or embarrassing impression on your first
interview.
As the proverb goes” Prevention is better than cure”.
I added some true tales interviews that may help you to
understand the situation better.
True tales: A candidate was asked what he thinks of the
gun issue of the recent teen murdered by 2 teenagers.
He answered: “Really? When did it happen?
Who murder who?
“The candidate “killed” his potential job.
True tale: A lady candidate thought that she made a good
impression after an interview.
When she leaving from the building, she noticed that
some men were staring at her abdomen part.
She looked down and realized that her front zipper was
open. All the while the fluttering silk of her underwear
was “waving’ to the public.
True tales: An interview candidate called his mum to catch
up what’s she had been doing at home.
When the manager of the “prominent” company finally
greeted him, he said;”I will be with you in a few minutes” and
carried on his phone conversation with his mum.
Guess what happened after that phone call?
True tales: A candidate wrote her personal resume to a
“Potential” company for a job.
She got the company’s name correct but inside the letter/email,
she wrote: Dear Who and Who.
She lost her potential chance too.

Good interview tips. Besides ... the thing with marrying a rich spouse is that riches are not guaranteed and also your marriage isn't guaranteed. Your rich spouse might find "greener pastures" and leave you in a heartbeat! It's best you learn how to take care of yourself.
Very good and interesting piece on attending job interviews. I love the part that says " Do your homework on this information so that it may be
useful to you when you stumble upon hard core questions
that your interviewer deliberately asked.
This is to ensure that you have the knowledge and ability
to handle difficult situation that props out in critical
problems." i think the most important thing is just to be yourself and tackle every question as it comes. job interview are really sweet and interesting when one fully prepares for it
Very interesting and helpful tips about how to pass the employment interview. Uphold the the good work. Keep on posting relative topics which is beneficial for all.
These are useful tips. In some point, it takes a lot of courage to have a job interview. During the old times, I had tested that before undergoing an interview; a person should build his or her self-confidence. If not, job interview will definitely a big failure.
Despite failures in having numerous job interviews, it will serve as a good experience to have the best job for his or her life. It takes a lot of courage to win the favor of any bosses in the company. Eventually, it will be the best achievement in an interview.
such things are good to know. I remember I had about 3 job interviews that I failed and I got out so disappointed of it. it's true at the same time that I didn't go too well prepaired
I remember three things that had worked me well when I applied for a job for the first time. my potential, my willingness and my openness to accept the unexpected. Since it was the first time for me to look for a job, I was, of course nervous. I didn't know what to do in case my prospective employer thru their manager would interview me. I just prepared myself with a prayerful attitude that God knows what is best for me.
It was my turned to get inside the manager's office of the bank. What should I tell the manager of my experience since I just graduated from my commerce course, except for the apprenticeship I have had with the cooperating bank of the college which I studied. I handed in my letter of application to the manager. He took a short glimpse of it and put it down on his table. I thought why he didn't read it a bit. He asked me the first question: "Why should the bank hire you?" With confidence, I rehearsed what I had learned from my bank apprenticeship. When I was done I looked straight to his eye.
He asked the second question: "Are you married?" I answered him straight yes. No explanation. No elaboration. Then he threw a follow-up question: "Would you do if you are working when your wife gets sick and you've an important job to finish? Whom would you prefer to do?" I firmly replied that I would have to attend to my wife who is sick. My wife is my priority for she's sick. She's the reason why I should work.
Third and last question: "What should you do when the company fire you?" I would accept it. I know that the company where I am working knows what is best. Therefore, if I deserve it or not, I have to accept me. I know there is still God who finds what is best for me. The manager stood up, shook my hands. He told me to start on Monday for I was hired.
Thanks for sharing, although I might not need these advice for the time being. Anyway, they are really useful for those school leavers, fresh graduates.
According to my observation and experience, attitude is every thing. There are many newbie whom have bad working habits and attitudes.
Take an example, they won't call up and inform the human resource department if they are sick on a particular day, only when the human resource folks called them up only they will tell and request for a medical leave. It is really terrible.
All the above tips ar3 good for anyone who is planning to go for an interview. Many people oftenly assume or don't take interviews as serious business. You would find others going here in tight fitting clothes, or maybe wear something revealing, and this can be very devastating for the person being interviewed. Others may think when you wear revealing clothes you will get favor from the but boss but that doesn't work at all it instead works against you. Always be straight with your answers dont beat about the bush, say it like it is. Always wait to be asked to sit down don't badge into the office and take a seat wait until you are asked to sit down. Actually it's really all about ettiqute that's all.
