Get Hired, Girl!

officegirl.jpgThe top 10 questions to prepare for before a job interview:

  1. Tell me about yourself. People tend to ramble and act flustered when asked this question — save yourself from the embarrassment of unwarranted blabber and plan out your answer to this question days (or even weeks!) in advance.
  2. What do you know about this company? Do not wing your answer to this question. Most companies have websites, so do the research before your interview and surf away. If you have friends in that company, ask them for tips, and try to squeeze out some information about the company’s structure and vision.
  3. What are your strengths? If you’ve already handed in your resume, you should have a good grasp of what you’re good at. Familiarize yourself with your strong points, and don’t give the interviewer a long list of adjectives. Focus on what’s applicable to the job that you’re applying for. For example, tell them what a good leader you are, or how you work well under pressure — not about your amazing cramming skills.
  4. What are your weaknesses? Keep your answers on the down low. Remember, what you say can be used against you!
  5. Why do you want to work here? Be careful of brownnosing — you don’t want them to think you’re sucking up just to get the job. Be honest. And if you’re under pressure and have nothing left to say, tell them you’re in it for the experience. You can’t go wrong with that.
  6. What have you accomplished thus far? Don’t brag, but don’t underplay your cum laude award or merit scholarship either. Highlight that position you held in your org, or tell them about that summer internship you took last year.
