Pre Employment Interviews Resource
Do Your Research
It doesnt matter how much knowledge or experience you have about the position that you are trying to get in a company if you dont have a clue who the company is or what they do. It is disastrous to enter into an interview and not be able to tell your interviewer what their company is about. How else are you going to tell them why you feel that you would be a good addition to their company?
A good and less time consuming way to get to know about a company is to look up their website. You can get all of the general knowledge about them that way, including the names of key people and their job titles. (There will be more on that in a minute) You should sift through most of their pages, including the pages that show samples of their work and/or products.
You can also look them up in the media files if there are any. Read the articles about them and soak in as much information as possible. Another thing that would be nice to do is to check out the surrounding area around the company. It makes for a nice breaker during the interview. You can make a comment about a particular monument or resting place nearby.
A trickier way to get a little extra information about the company is to call them on the phone and ask general questions, without referring to yourself as a potential employee. Its a nice way to get the goods on upcoming promotions etc.
Everything that you could ever want may be riding on your behavior at a job interview. Learn what they do for the company and try to get some samples of their work or achievements in the company. Even in the hotter seasons, you should not wear sandals or gym shoes to an interview. Many people do not think that recruiters really go all the way through a resume, but they really do. |
