Interview tips

During the Interview, Determine to Observe the 50-50 Rule.

In Answering the Employer's Questions, Observe the Twenty-Second to Two-Minute Rule.

Determine to Be Seen as a Part of the Solution, Not as a Part of the Problem.

Beware of the skills the employers are looking for, these days, regardless of the position are seeking.

They are looking for employees:
  • who are punctual
  • arriving at work on time or early
  • who stay until quitting time, or even leave late,
  • who are dependable
  • who have a good attitude
  • who have drive, energy and enthusiasm
  • who want more than paycheck
  • who are self-disciplined
  • well-organised
  • highly motivated
  • good at managing their time
  • who can handle people well
  • who can use language effectively
  • who can work on a computer
  • who are committed to teamwork
  • who are flexible, and can respond to novel situations, or adapt when circumstances at work change
  • who are trainable, and love to learn
  • who are project-oriented and goal oriented
  • who have creativity and good at problem solving
  • who have integrity
  • who are loyal to the organisation
  • who are able to identify opportunities, markets and coming trends.
Above all, they want to hire people who can bring in more money than they are paid.

So, plan on claiming all of these that you legitimately can, doing the hiring-interview, with evidence (short stories).
