Tips for passing an interview. How many successfully did you pass the interview in other places? What can you tell about yourself

An interview when admission to work - a meeting of the employer and a applicant, based on the results of which the decision makes a new employee. How when admitting work? It is important to follow a number of simple rules.

The first "meeting" with the employer passes in the telephone mode when the question of the interviews is being resolved. The first opinion about the applicant develops at this moment. By phone, you must clarify the full name of the post, ask basic questions about future work. Immediately find out if this work is suitable for you, and discuss those nuances that can prevent your interest in work. It will help save both your time and employer time. Expectative meetings rarely benefit.

Record the full name of the company, the contact phone number, the name of the interlocutor. Specify also who will conduct an interview. Very good, if at a personal meeting you contact him by name and patronymic. Do not forget to clarify the address of the office or another meeting place.

Immediately after the telephone conversation, start a thorough preparation for the meeting. Prepare clothes, consider the issues to the employer, read the information about how to go through the interview.

So, you decided all the initial questions on the phone. Take care of the preparation of the necessary documents: Make a resume and autobiography. Even if this did not require the employer, it is better that all this was on hand. In addition, prepare a passport, a diploma (or diplomas) on education, certificates, certificates and other similar things. If some of the certificates are not related to the position that you strive to occupy in this company, leave it at home.

Well study the company's activities where you go to the interview. Thinking about how to go through the interview correctly, remember that you should show the employer's interest in work. Explore the company's website, find out all about the direction of its activities and history. Even if you cannot apply these knowledge, they will probably use you in the future.

How to pass the interview to know those who come to him in time. If you are late, most likely, you will have to say goodbye. Treat a trip route in advance to an interview. It is better to come in advance and wait in the corridor, removing the excitement and wipe away the caustic sweat from the face. On the way, think again that you will answer frequently asked questions, as well as prepare own questions. The main thing is that the answers are true. It is undesirable to embellish the facts and invent something to put yourself in a more advantageous light. Again, talk to the interlocutor so that he realize that you are really interested in his company and work in it. Very carefully you need to answer questions about previous works, about your shortcomings and advantages, failures and achievements.

How to behave at the interview? What questions are asked on the interview and what answers are the most correct answers? How to competently prepare for receiving to work?

Hello, dear readers! With you one of the authors of the business journal Khutirbobur.ru Alexander Berezhov and today our guest Ksenia Borodina - recruitment specialist, psychologist.

Ksenia has already spent hundreds of interviews and knows all the subtleties of this important event. Our guest will share chips and secrets of practicing HR specialists and will give effective recommendations job applicants.

In one of the previous articles, we told in detail about. And now they approached the logical continuation of the topic - the passage of the interview.

1. What is the interview and in what form it passes

Ksenia, welcome you. I suggest starting from the most important thing. Tell me, please, what is the interview, how is it going and what types of interviews exist? It is necessary so that our readers understand where they have to get and what to expect, since for some of them it will be the first experience of the device for work.

Hello Sasha. Let's start with the definition.

Interview - this is dating process The job seeker and the potential employer (his representative) as a result of which 2 parties want to obtain the necessary information on how much they fit each other.

There are several of his species.

For example, by the number of participants distinguish individual and group interview.

Individual interview. One on one, where the employer or his representative on the one hand and the applicant on the other are participating.
Group interview. As a rule, it is carried out by a professional recruiter (specialist in recruitment) by a company in need of personnel with a group of potential applicants for a vacancy. Group interviews Most often are carried out on mass vacancies in companies, for example, to the position "Sales Manager".

Also, the interviews can be divided into the number of decision-making "instances". According to this principle, they are divided into single-level and multi-level.

As a rule, on executive positions that do not require high level Preparation and great responsibility, applicants pass through one interviewer. Such interviews are called single-level, that is, they suggest a conversation with one person.

If you want to get a seller's office consultant in the store household appliances, More often you will be interviewing the director of the store, where your further employment is supposed. This is an example of a single-level interview.

Multi-level interviews involve the acquaintance of the applicant with representatives of several guidelines.

For example, if you are applying for a specialist marketing department in such close-up company As "Coca-Cola", then the interview you will be held with the head of the regional branch, head of the company's marketing department and the director of this plant.

Sometimes multi-level interviews are held at a personal meeting with each "level", and sometimes communication with the candidate is carried out in remote mode.

Thanks to the development modern means Communications, some managers prefer to conduct Skype interviews (less often by phone).

This is especially true in cases where the applicant is looking for work with the prospect of moving to another region or even another country.

Often the interview process itself causes stress at the candidate. After all, as a rule, a person sends his resume to several organizations immediately and receives an invitation to go through an interview sometimes in one day with an interval in a few hours.

And each such meeting, where you need to competently present yourself, requires both physical and emotional efforts.

2. Stages of the interview

Ksenia, I think that now our readers have received an idea of \u200b\u200ban interview as a process and its features, and now I propose to talk about stages through which the applicant passes in the interview process and the features of each of them.

Indeed, the whole process of passing the interview can be divided into 4 stages:

Telephone call;
Preparation for the meeting;
Interview;
Summarizing.

Each of them has its own characteristics that you need to tell you, as an applicant, the most effectively passed through each of the stages and received a position to be applying for.

Stage 1. Telephone conversation

This is the first stage of direct communication with the representative of the company, to work in which you are applying. It is usually a consequence of sending your resume in this company.

If the company is more or less large, then in most cases an employee responsible for the recruitment of personnel will call.

When talking to him, be polite, and also remember it (her) name and preferably. Next, specify wherever you need to come, (address) and at what time. Also specify the contact phone number for communication.

If something needs to take with you, for example, a passport, a document on education or a portfolio, then this will tell you the recruiter according to the telephone conversation.

Stage 2. Preparation for the meeting

At this stage, I recommend you to present your future interview with a potential employer and "live". This will especially be true for people who are afraid of the interview itself or they have a fear of failing to meet with the recruiter.

To tune in to the process and overcome possible fears, I suggest you doing exercise "Meeting with the President". It is done on the eve of the interview.

Imagine that you were invited to the Kremlin and are now sitting at a meeting with the country's president. The camcorders of the leading TV channel are sent to you and a bunch of journalists write down everything you say.

Try to imagine yourself in this situation and bother this role. Think about what you ask the president and what you want to tell. What questions he will ask you and how you publicly answer them.

To do this exercise, stay alone so that no one distract you and submit such a meeting for 7-15 minutes in all details.

Then go to your interview. After such a "visualization", you will be guaranteed to be easier to pass it. After all, you have already experienced the most "terrible" interview in your life.

A few more words about the preparation.

Preparation for the interview includes 3 important points:

Preparation of self-testing and its rehearsal;
Preparation of the portfolio (awards, articles about you), works and examples confirming your competence for this vacant place;
Rest and further entry into the "Resource State". Under this term, your working condition is understood in which you are maximally collected and productive.

Stage 3. Interview

To understand in detail how to get a job interview, you need to be prepared for different nuances.

For example, a very often specialist who spends a conversation with you will ask you questions and offer to perform small buildings (case).

Case - This is a modeling (analysis) of a problem or non-standard situation and ways to solve it by a candidate (applicant).

Suppose you apply for the post of sales representative or sales manager.

To test your erudition, stress resistance, creative thinking and professional knowledge, recruitment specialist will give you a case for parsing.

Case example:

Recruiter : You are going to a meeting with an important client. The major negotiations that you have to be held, if successful, will be able to bring you a monthly level of income and an increase in position. Suddenly in the middle of the road you break the car. Your actions?

You: I will leave the car and try to get to the taxi or in passing transport to the meeting place with the client.

Recruiter : You drove through the deaf road away from the city, there is no passing transport.

You: I will look at the navigator where I am and call a taxi in this place.

Recruiter : You have no navigator and got a phone.

You: I will try to eliminate the breakdown of the car on my own and then continue to move.

And so your recruitment specialist can "drive" you, with each time complicating the conditions in which you found yourself.

As I understand it, it is done in order to see if such force majeure will introduce you to a stupor and what options do you offer (checking the smelting)?

Sasha, quite right. Also, the HR specialist in this case wants to see how long you will try to find a way out of the current situation (checking your perseverance).

One of the very popular cases is called "Sale of handles". It is used mainly on interviews associated with the employment of sales professionals, but sometimes personnel "play" in such games with candidates for other posts.

Stage 4. Summing up

If at the meeting you kept confidently and clearly answered all the issues of the HR specialist, then you will have great chances to get the desired work.

At the end of the interview you will tell you what time you will be answered if you will be hired. In case you pass a multi-level interview, then wait for a response about the passage of the next stage.

I usually say so:

If, before such a time, I will not call such a day, it means that we made a decision in favor of another candidate.

You can also ask for a recruiter yourself when it is to wait for the results of the interview and in what form it will be.

Now, if I find a job, I will definitely work out possible cases. Ksenia, I am sure that our readers will be interested to know how to behave at the interview and what can embarrass HR specialist in behavior or appearance of the job seeker?

Sasha, indeed, it is worth understanding that the higher the position that a potential employee claims, the greater the requirements for it is presented.

Let me voice somewhat common key moments From his practice that you need to consider everyone without exception to candidates when passing a job interview.

Accuracy and tidy.This applies not only to the appearance, but also your condition as a whole. Never come to an interview in alcoholic intoxication, After a "rapid rest" or sleepless night. In the eyes of a personnel selection specialist, you immediately earn the status of "walks", and with him the rest of the relevance of the interview will be raised under the big question.
Friends and good manners.Whatever position you do not claim, good manners and adequate behavior will definitely add to you glasses. Find out what your interlocutor's name is and contact him by name. Moreover, it is worth seeing exactly how he introduced himself. For example, if the recruiter said his name is Ivan, then so call it to "you". "Ivan, you said that ..." if he called his name and patronymic, then it is necessary to turn to your interlocutor.
Possession of professional terminology.Create a specialist in the selection of personnel if not abusing Terms, 3-4 times during your interviews, use them, and explain how to use these terms as apply (used). For example, if you say that sales in the previous place were able to raise sales by 30% per month, thanks to an increase in conversion, analyzing the number of incoming appeals and the size of the average check, then it will start as a plus.
Common erudition.Alternator once in the topic can be mentioned by the famous books that you read or seminars according to your specialty you were during the year. Recruiters pay attention to the knowledge and the desire of a person to self-education. This is especially important if you are applying guidelines or "intellectual" positions in the company.

In a word, you need to "sell" and show with favorable side. Moreover, it is necessary to do this from both a professional point of view, and from the point of view of common human values \u200b\u200band rules. If you want to get a job, it is important to competently and clearly answer the questions of the HR specialist.

4. Questions on the interview and answers to them

I heard that there are a number of questions that are asked almost all recruiters to applicants. Ksyusha, can you give some examples and successful answers to them?

Yes of course.

In addition to the cases that you will be given at the interview, for its successful passage you will need to answer a number of "Caverzny" questions. They are also selected by your recruiter not by chance.

After all, the decision to enroll you to work depends on how you answer them.

Questions at the interview and correct answers to them:

Tell us about yourself. It would seem, a simple task, but many people at this point begins a stupor: "washed" or "nuking". Here you must present yourself from the best side within the vacancy for which you are applying for. Briefly tell us about your education, experience and achievements that are distinguished by as a specialist. Speak clearly, without excess water and philosophies.
Why did you go with the previous job? Tell me here about your motivation "K", that is, what seeks to develop and new opportunities in the work, which you are currently present in this position. Do not speak in the key of the motivation "from", that is, "I ran away from bad conditions, low wages and a loading team." In no case do not scold the previous place of work and your former head. After all, any person, including your interlocutor, will think that replacing work in the future, you will also negatively respond to his company.
Who can you see yourself in 5-10 years or your plans for a remote perspective?It is best to answer here that you associate your professional future with this company. So you will form an impression of yourself as an interested employee, ready to devote a large amount of time for this work. After all, it is not welcomed by the "Teachka" frames.
Do you have weak sides (limitations)? If there is, you call 3 of them. By asking such a question, the recruiter wants to understand the level of your maturity. We will say that I do not see the shortcomings or will think for a long time how to answer this question, will lose points in the eyes of the personnel specialist. Do not answer as follows: "My shortcomings: often Fit, conflict with colleagues (leadership), lazy. It is best to say here that you are "workaholic", that is, you love to go to work with your head, and this is not always correct, "Perfectionist" - strive for perfection in everything and because of this sometimes losing in speed. And the third disadvantage is the desire to establish with all a good relationship. And sometimes you are too kind with subordinates, as you do not want to punish them for the improper quality of work performed.
Name Naugh strengths. Tell us about your truly strengths that are directly applicable to the work that you apply and give examples with facts and numbers. For example: "I believe that one of my strengths is the ability to think in numbers. At the previous job site, I analyzed the sales funnel, revealed regularities and on the basis of this developed a new sales model that brought the company additionally 500 000 rubles or 15 % For the first month of introducing my marketing model. "
Did you make mistakes at the previous job place? What kind?Here honestly tell me which mistakes you had. But the most important thing is that they do not belong to the fatal and be sure to complete the answer to this question by the fact that you were corrected themselves. For example, you discharged the client is not mobile phone And he returned to the store to exchange it. And you managed not only to avoid conflict situationbut also sell him more additional accessories to the acquired mobile device.
What level of compensation (salaries) are counting?Here you must objectively appreciate your competencies, to say how much you want to receive and justify the benefit of the employer's company, if it makes your choice in favor of you as an employee. Analyze the level of wages that offer similar companies for similar vacancies.
Where did you know about our company?Usually this question is asking a representative of the employer in order to find out which channel search channel works. This question does not apply to the tricky, rather, it is simply information and aims to optimize the search for the personnel for this organization. Just answer, as it is, for example, I learned about the vacancy on your company's website.

In addition to the answers to common questions, I am a table to show, the presence of which basic criteria are important from the candidate and what they are confirmed.

Visual table of the main criteria for assessing a candidate for an interview

The first column contains an assessment criterion, and the second is indirect proof of the present of this criterion.

5. How to pass an interview when admission to work - 7 of the main rules

That is, as I understand it, the interview is a rather creative process and clear standards in its holding or here everything is individually?

Quite right, Sasha. Each HR specialist is suitable for the interview process in its own way. There are recruiters that simply technically "drive" a candidate on the list of issues, defining his prof. Fitness.

I do a little different. That is, I come to the process of interviewing individually for each applicant. I try not only to classify it according to the principle "Fits / Not Suitable" as a specialist, but also to determine its psychological type, the features of motivation and internal potential.

It's great, it can be seen that you really love what you are doing. Ksenia, let's now go to the most important block of our interview and talk about what rules need to be compliance with the candidate throughout the interview from the beginning and to the end to maximize the chances of obtaining the desired work?

If you have a job interview, follow next rules and then your interview will certainly discover you a way to career and financial opportunities at a new job place.

Rule 1. We learn everything about the potential employer

This is the first and very an important stage preparation.

FirstlyThis information will help you find out with whom you are going to cooperate for a long time (perhaps for several years). Open the Internet, the printed press and see what exactly distinguishes your potential employer from other companies. Perhaps this is the introduction of innovation, working conditions, or ways to promote (marketing).
Secondly, All data and the facts that you learned about the potential employer will help you at the interview. In the process of passing the interview, make a compliment of the company, shine the knowledge of the facts about it. This will all positively affect the acceptance of the final decision on your candidacy.

What you need to know about the company in which you are comfortable:

The history of creation and manual. When it appeared - the year of foundation. Who is the leader now, and who stood at the helm earlier. What is the features of the style of the management of the business and what is the vital philosophy of the highest leadership. Also find out what symbolizes form style and company logo and what is it corporate culture. What values \u200b\u200bunderlie the organization.
The main activities. What does this organization produce or sell, and perhaps it provides services. What is their feature? Why did she choose this market segment?
Business features. Does the company have competitors and who are they? What scale business is conducted by the organization, on what territory (city, region, country or international format). As the seasonality and other factors affect the success of the company. How many employees work in it and what is their organizational structure.
Achievements and important corporate events. Perhaps the organization recently became a laureate of some contest or opened new office. This information will also be superfluous for a comprehensive understanding of the company's current affairs.
Facts and numbers. What is the market share of the company in its segment and its financial indicators: revenue, growth rates, number of customers and open offices.

Having comprehensive information about all the features of the future employer, you will certainly get advantages compared to other applicants.

Rule 2. Preparing self-testing and rehearsing it

When you find yourself on the interview, then in most cases you will be asked to tell about yourself. As I said earlier, it is this request that introduces many applicants to a stupor.

So that it is not surprising for you, you need to prepare in advance.

Self Preventation - This is a brief and capacious story about yourself in the context of the job on which you are applying.

I emphasize that precisely in the context of a particular vacancy. That is, the emphasis in the story needs to be done on those of their qualities, experience and knowledge that will help solve problems as part of your future work.

For example, if you apply for a vacancy of a sales manager, then in the framework of the self-presentation, tell us which recent sales courses you have passed, what experience in this area have. Maybe you are so passionate about this topic, which created our own website or "club successful sellers" in your city.

If you have an education that will help you in such work, for example, by specialties: Marketing, advertising, PR, then do the emphasis on this. If you have a building or medical education, then just tell me that you have a second or higher educationwithout denoting his profile.

The direction of education will be appropriate to be called if you sell products similar to the industry as part of the Sales Manager profession.

For example, if you are comfortable to a trading company for the sale of building materials, the construction education will be in your situation the advantage.

It is not necessary to make the focus on your hobby, if it does not affect positively on the results of work.

How to prepare self-presentation to pass the interview

Conditionally disperse all your performance into several blocks.

For example, your self-presentation may consist of 4 major parts interconnected by meaning:

Education and professional experience.
Your achievements with facts and numbers.
The advantages of cooperation with you for the employer.
Your professional plans for the future.

After you have made a plan for your self-sustaining, it's time to rehearse it.

To begin with, say all theses that you plan to voice the personnel specialist at the interview.

Then sit in front of the mirror and looking at yourself, say whatever you prepared, relying on your plan. Most likely, the first time you will forget something or begin to stuff. Then your task is to bring to the ideal of your story and imagine that you are now on the upcoming meeting and tell you a loved one.

Fact

Many people have a psychological barrier when it comes to talking about himself in the best light.

Rule 3. Observe the appropriate "Dress Code"

As a rule, certain professions involve a special style of clothing. So, if you apply for an office vacancy, then yours appearance The interview must be appropriate.

For men Suitable shirt of light tone and pants or jeans of dark tones.
For girls It can be a blouse, a skirt of sufficient length and shoes at a low heel.

If your future work involves an active interaction with people at a personal meeting, in this case, in this case, the requirements for your style of clothing will be especially high.

An exception from the rules is only the "creative" profession. For example, a designer or photographer can afford to come to an interview in an extravagant dress. In this case, your clothing style will emphasize a non-standard approach to solving creative tasks.

In all other cases, the "classic" and business style - Your win-win version!

Also, in addition to the main style of clothing, the availability of accessories is welcome.

Among accessories can be:

wrist Watch;
tie;
decoration;
stylish notepad;
a pen;
bag (purse).

Rule 4 Making written notes in the meeting process

An indicator of the overall level of the candidate's preparation for the recruiter is the presence of the first notepad and handles. If you make marks in the interview process, then first of all for you it will be very convenient. After all, at the end, relying on his records, you can ask clarifying questions or ask to explain the details of employment and other conditions of future work.

By the end of the meeting you will have everything like a palm. This is especially useful if you pass several interviews at different companies in order to then compare the working conditions in different organizations and take a weighted solution.

Also making records are necessary if you pass a multi-level interview. The fixation of the main points on paper will help you to remember what was discussed at the meeting and it is better to prepare for the next stages of the interview.

Rule 5 Compile a list of questions for recruit

As a rule, at the end of the meeting, your interviewer will ask if you have any questions. For this, think about it in advance what you would like to find out additionally.

Part of the issues for the recruiter you can make at home in advance, and part of the record right at the meeting in the form of marks. To do this, you must have a notepad and handle with you.

Take care in advance that your notebook is a proper aesthetic species. This means that if it is a "rolled" pack of yellowed sheets, in which the fish "wrapped up," this characterizes you as a sloppy potential employee.

Everything should be harmonious - this is an important principle of successful interview.

Rule 6. We keep yourself confident and naturally on an interview.

Do not attempt to "wear a mask", to be wrong or through Chur will like your interlocutor. Unnatural behavior is easy to read by man. Your mimic, gestures and conversation style involuntarily will bring you "on clean water."

It is better to go to another way to achieve a positive result. Follow the elementary rules good tone, Be polite and tacty.

Do not interrupt the interviewer, talk calmly, but with some enthusiasm in my head.

You must intuitively understand where and what appropriate to say. After all, the interview is the process of mutual decision on cooperation between the two sides: you and the employer.

Rule 7. We ask when and in what form you will announce the results

I hope that using these simple rulesYou can easily pass the interview when taking a job. At the end of the meeting, find out when and in what form to wait for an answer about the results of the interview.

Simply put, how to find out if you took you to work or not?

Usually, the recruiter himself will tell you that the answer will be on such a day, for example, until 18 o'clock in the evening.

I tell my applicants that if on such a day, for example, I will not call you until 18:00, it means that you have not passed the interview.

To call and everyone personally say that their candidacy for this position is rejected, as a rule, too troublesome.

The rule works here:

"Call - congratulations, you are hired! Did not call - your candidacy did not pass. "

6. 5 typical errors when passing the interview

If you want to successfully pass job interview and make it without "noise and dust", then you should avoid mistakes that I will talk about.

It is them that most of the applicants are committed and because of the simple ignorance of elementary things, they fail, losing the opportunity to make a long-awaited career.

Error 1. Fear of interviews or schoolboy syndrome

Once again, I repeat that the interview is the process of mutual choice and both parties are equal participants in this process.

Some job seekers come to the meeting and they are shaking hands, sweat palms, trembling the voice. It is this behavior is characteristic of students and schoolchildren when passing the exam. They seem to be in the position of the rabbit, which looks at the boa.

No need to be afraid of interviews.

A big mistake to think that now the evil uncle or aunt will torment you. After all, as a rule, a personnel specialist who trusted to take a person to work is a friendly and attentive person whose goal is to find the very "golden ingot" in a pile of ore and clay.

If you glit like gold with your talents, competent speech And show real examples of achievements and its competencies on the interview, then do not doubt, you will take you to this work!

Error 2. Passage of interview without preparation

In almost every previous block of our interview, I talked about the importance of training before the interview.

Do not neglect this rule.

The expression is good in many situations, but not at the time of passing the interview. And as many know, the best expression is the expression prepared.

Follow all the above rules and the consequence of this error you will not affect.

Error 3. Excessive conversation "Souls" with a recruiter

Sometimes the seekers are so fond of the interview process, which is departed from the main topic and begin to "pour the soul" by the personnel specialist.

This error is often found just in inexperienced applicants or candidates for lower technical positions, such as a loader, a storekeeper, a worker, and so on.

As a rule, among more prepared applicants applying for more responsible positions in the company, this error is not found.

But still remember that you should not move away from the topic if you want to get a job in good organization and use well-deserved respect.

Error 4. Poor well-being and stress as a factor of failure

Everything happens in life and if you have an interview tomorrow at 10 am, and you feel bad or you have happened to something serious that I completely knocked you out of the gauge, try to postpone the meeting. In this case, pre-warn the representative of the employer by phone.

After all, it can happen anything: a child fell ill and need to go to the hospital, a relative fell into an accident or you were tritely poisoned with a disheve of food.

Do not go for an interview in an depressed state, a bad mood or with unimportant well-being.

Error 5. Non-actuality

Some job seekers "Prut as tanks" and turn an interview in the show, demonstrating not the best quality. Lovers argue with the interlocutor unequivocally not to get the desired work.

If a person behaves in disgraining and disrespectful towards the partnership side, it immediately characterizes it as a scandalousist and a potentially unsuitable employee.

As Leopold cat spoke in a famous cartoon: "Guys, let's live together!".

So, you need to make friends with your interlocutor.

After the meeting, the representative of your employer should have the impression of you and as a good specialist of your business, and as a pleasant in communication and cultural person.

Do not commit these 5 common mistakes and success is guaranteed!

7. Visual video examples on how to successfully pass an interview from the "Success" TV channel in the program "Frames decide"

The classic model is considered the simplest, because the applicant requires only one thing: correctly answer all questions. Questions on the interview and answers to them can be different, but usually the employer asks about the following:

On average, the interview lasts 30-40 minutes. During this time, the Interviewer should make sure that the applicant is suitable for the position. The most important thing in this case is to find out the level of professional qualifications.

Psychologists advise in the most detailed detail about the previous place of work, about the existing skills, about the former responsibilities. The task of a person is to prove its professionalism, its superiority over other candidates.

However, it should not be deepened into the reasons for dismissal, noting that the salary or absence of career growth was not satisfied.

Important are also considered issues related to the motivation and ambitions of a person. Responding to them, it is worth emphasizing their high expectations from this service place, the calculation on high wages and fulfill all the plans. If the employer asks who the applicant sees himself after 5 or 10 years, you need to talk about my prospects for this post. The thing is that interviewers usually look for candidates who want to get a job for several years, and not for a couple of weeks.

Another important question always concerns professional qualities. Listing your work qualities, a person can call the following:

a responsibility;
initiative;
teamwork skills;
performance;
positive attitude to criticism;
ambitiousness;
trainability.

Psychologists have long noticed that girls aged 20-35 are harder to find work due to the fear of the employer in front of frequent decrees and hospitals. That is why if the employer is interested in the family position, the presence of a husband and children, it is worth emphasizing that the appearance of a baby is not included in the coming plans of the girl.

After adding a little humor to the correct answers, a person will be able to get an interview without unnecessary problems.

What questions to ask on the interview or how to communicate with the employer

Who said that only the interviewer should ask questions? Usually, at the end of the conversation, the word is always provided to the person himself. What questions to ask on an employer interview to show your interest in office?

It is necessary to understand the main rule: questions should relate exclusively working moments, it is better not to talk about personal topics on the interview. Usually the employer is waiting for the interlocutor to be initiative and interest in office, so any questions are encouraged.

Also, with the help of explanatory questions at the end of the conversation, one can demonstrate their qualifications. For example, a person can ask whether employees of the company use this or that program to conduct documentation by emphasizing their own ownership.

It is also worth citing the need for travel, the presence of bonuses, premiums, promotions for employees. You can also learn about the history of the company, because if the company has existed for several decades, then you can be confident in its reliability.

It is not necessary to know what questions are asked on the interview, because sometimes employers build a conversation in an unexpected way. It is important not to ask questions, the answers to which were previously given by the interviewer, because it may seem that a person in a weight listened. It should not be repeated, and otherwise it only will negatively affect the career prospects.

5 main mistakes of a potential employee at the interview

Sometimes a person wants so much to please his interlocutor, which shows excessive activity, making annoying and stupid mistakes. What are the main mistakes can put a cross on the results of such communication?

Psychologists advise to interview the history of the firm, read articles about its activities on the Internet. First, it will help make sure the company's reliability, and secondly, will contribute successful passage Interviews. A person must show all his appearance that he is interested in this position, but has other options and suggestions.

Usually, the results of the interview negatively affects the excitement of a person, its excessive activity or on the contrary is a closedness. Sometimes insufficient experience makes itself felt, so it is important for the interview to prepare directly as for the exam. Many psychologists advise simply relax and believe in their strength, because a confident person will be able to get even the highest paid job without any problems.

Communicating correctly with the interviewer, without moving the border of a professional conversation, a person will be able to make the right impression on the interlocutor. The most complex are the first interviews, and in the future, passing several of them, a person will quickly and confidently answer all the tricky questions of the potential employer.
