And then it is also a plus point if they make contact with somebody in their network who have linked or worked with us. Deep research or study has good impact and in this way you can also give positive disparagement. For instance, there was an applicant who searches website, but could not find our video. Then, he gave some good participation to it.
If the applicant shows positive thought,
If the candidate is to give a good thought. I have hope that he or she searches the company and find what we contain on our website, for instance, have watched our videos. And that they have pursued a little on our LinkedIn page.
Here we have two prime questions set for your job interview
“Tell me a little about yourself”
“Why did you apply for this position?”
If you have experienced in your past interview that employers or interviewers frequently asks one of those mentioned questions. However, our recruitment analysis from 2017 indicates that one of the two questions repeat in 80% job interviews.
So the simple suggestion is: be ready and prepare answer for these two compulsory questions. Moreover, be attentive that your response to this compulsory question will shape the remaining discussion.
٭ Anne Vibeke Madsen, HR Manager at BITZER Electronics, says:
When I prefer to initiate a job interview with the question, ‘Tell me a little about yourself’, it indicates the attention and concentration of the candidates and it also indicates his/her interest. Are these jobs the applicant has any experience, are they have nay course work, or commence with by telling who he or she as a person? My provocations also mean to make a good attendance in the discussion from the opening and get the candidate to be present.
4. Participate actively: The job interviews is a dialogue – not an interrogation
The statistics from the recruitment analysis 2017 also indicate that company or employer think that interview is handy in which applicant participates more than the employer.
Particularly, the applicant should speak 33.5 minutes out of the 60 minutes that a classic job interview lasts – or the equal of 56% of the conversation time. To master advice number 4, keep away from single handed conversation for the “recommended” 33.5 minutes.
Do you have any important questions for the job or the company? So approach them. Good questions not only indicate that you are keen; they also ensure that there is a good energetic in the conversation. Good questions can make an employer think “well seen” or feel that you recognize the company.
In case you have any clarification, they can also be precious as it is just as the questions conversational material. This indicates your professionalism and show that you are thoughtful. You can also inquire about the short-term and long-term goals of the company or future challenges of the departments.
* Anne Vibeke Madsen, HR Manager at BITZER Electronics, says:
“I always look forward to the applicant himself to ask a little question about the vacancy, the task, etc., so that there is a little ease in the discussion, and the conversation should not be one way, but seems a discussion. Moreover, it is the applicant duty to put some questions that also bring ease in chat. However, it boring to sit with applicant who does not have any question or query? If not, then it is backstroke, where the manager informs about our company because we must have time to go.”
5. Use your ready knowledge with timely care
You knowledge must be clear and display in front of the employer. However, in any circumstance our recruitment analysis in 2017 indicate that your awareness and your intellect are not judged in interview, but your capability to work together with your future employer.
You need m.a.o. not to highlight your awareness, but just select the right and proper words.
It is vital to show your presence and nicely organized. It is the time and contact between the applicant and his future employer that requires to be checked at the job interview.
* Anne Vibeke Madsen, HR Manager at BITZER Electronics, says:
Normally, the interview explores the joint relationships of applicant will enter into. Similarly we can also find the characteristics of the applicants are they shy or talkative. We also desire that applicant must add some words or thoughts about mutual experience for them like can we ask. “What is a good coworker or boss for you – and what differentiate the best leader you have had?”If we induct students or fresh qualified engineers, they are joyful to dispatch their curriculum vitae, from which their grades also show. However, character has many ingredients it is not sole. For instance, we all time try to explore the personality of the applicants through conversation about working environment and coworkers that they need.
