Five Parts of the
Face to Face Interview
1.
Arriving
at the interview- Give yourself enough time, you can wait in the parking
lot. But don’t walk in until, 8-10 minutes before your schedule interview. Greet everyone with a smile, be respectful,
leave your cell phone in the car, sit up straight, and look confident!
2.
Small
talk- When you meet the interviewer, look them in the eye and give a firm
handshake. When they ask… “How are you…?”
You say you are FANTASTIC! I am
very excited to meet you; this is the highlight of my week!
3.
Interviewer
asks questions- You will get the “Tell me about yourself question…?”
Behavioral based questions… “Tell me about a time when….?” And maybe
situational based questions… What would you do if…?”
4.
You ask
the questions- Have 4-5 questions ready.
Ideally, ask question that shows you were listening and shows your
strengths. Ex. It sounds like you are looking for a strong
Sales Manager who can also automate your data base, is that correct? I would
really like to work for you, what do you think? *Always ask for their business
cards!
5.
Follow Up-
After the interview, send an e-mail thank you to everyone you interviewed with
that day. You also want to send hand
written thank you cards ASAP.
