Post Interview: Your Phone Message

There are a lot of little details you need to consider during the Interview process. And, one that most people don’t even think about is what happens IF a prospective employer tries to reach you on the phone.

If you are not available or not at home, will they get a recorded phone message? And, if they do, is it a message you would want a prospective employer to hear?

Watch this video and then consider your own phone messages.

The Family Taking Messages

Who do you REALLY want taking messages for you?  And, do they know how to answer the phone and what to say?

Another point you absolutely have to consider is how to deal with the situation if anyone other than you or your spouse or significant other could possibly take a phone message for you from a prospective employer.

Here’s some food for thought on that topic.

NOTE: There is a BRIEF ad at the beginning of the Video.  Please bear with it.

Answering that "Tell Me About Yourself" Question

E-mail Print PDF

Here's a great little (i.e., short) video on how to answer this question.  It comes from Brian Krueger, President of CollegeGrad.com.

Even though it sounds like it is geared strictly to the recent college grad, this is good advice for anyone in an interview.

Keep in mind that this is one of the MOST COMMON INTERVIEW QUESTIONS.  And, you will likely need to respond to it before you get your next job.

10 Tough Questions for More "Mature" Job Seekers

10 Tough Interview Questions for More "Mature" Workers
By: AARP.org | Source: AARP.org

NOTE: The following article is taken from AARP.org.  Click HERE to go to the original site and the article.

To do your best at an interview, anticipate the questions you may be asked, then practice what you’re going to say. Practice in front of a mirror or with family and friends. You’ll be more relaxed, confident, and more likely to be hired.

These 10 questions are examples of some you might be asked. Not all of them are overtly age-related. But each one gives you an opportunity to present yourself as a skilled, energetic worker who brings high value to an employer.

  1. Tell me about yourself. Make your answer short and sweet. Stick to experiences and goals that relate to the specific job for which you’re applying. Resist the impulse to stress your years of experience. It’s more important to talk about your skills and achievements that show you can deliver. Emphasize your flexibility and positive attitude.
  2. Why are you looking for a job? Keep it brief. A straightforward answer is best. For example, “My organization was forced to downsize.” Avoid negative statements about yourself, your work, or your ability to get along with others. Nevercriticize former employers or coworkers.
