2、re EJust checking out a company website is not enough FReview and follow up GIt s not a solo performance: aim for a warm dialogue Becoming an exceptional candidate is something you can do:its just that most people dont take the trouble. In my experience, most interviews dont go that well. The truth
3、is that many recruiters are actually not particularly good at interviewing either nor particularly effective. So, if you prepare properly and are a good interviewee, the odds can be stacked in your favour. 1 Its not just a question of researching the organisation. You need to understand your intervi
4、ewer and why they are hiring. One way or another they are seeking a resource as a solution to an identified problem. So work on understanding the organisational need and how you can add value. Look at the challenges and opportunities they face and work out how to show that your experience and expert
5、ise are relevant. Use your network to gather all the intelligence you can. 2 Rehearse your presentation. I dont necessarily mean being word perfect. Im talking about what you say when anyone asks you what you do, why you left, what you have achieved and so on. Can you talk about yourself comfortably
6、, with confidence, concisely with clarity? Practice so that you have the right words, dont get flustered, talk at the right pace and, crucially, know when to stop. Remember the need for consistency between words and body language. 3 People trained in interview techniques are told to use the 70/30 ru
7、le. That is to say the interviewer aims to talk for about 30% of the time allotted and the candidate talks 70% of the time, in response. The smart candidate actually wants a 50/50 dialogue. You should aim for a conversation, directed along the lines you preferwhereby you can play to your strengths.
8、The interviewer can only go with what you give them. Make it easy for the interviewer by saying “Have I told you all you need to know on that subject? Can I give you more detail?“ Build rapport, find some common ground. But remember its not a monologue , you are both actors in the interview. 4 Henry
9、 Ford famously said “If you think you can do a thing or think you cant do a thing, youre right“. Youre motivated, youve done the prep and have the drive to succeed so visualise success. Whether you call it confidence, self-esteem or self-belief, to shine at interview you need to show that you will m
10、ake a good employee. Show that you are good at interacting and reading your situation, good at selling yourself and your ideas. Practicing your interview technique will make it so much easier to shine. There s no need to be nervous if you believe you are a good candidate for the role. 5 After the in

So when the career gods smile in your direction and provide your dream position at a company where you know
14、 an employee, it can feel as though your professional traffic jam just opened onto the six-lane new-job freeway. But before you fire off that “Will you refer me?“ email, consider some of these important factors that can make or break your chances at an interview. 1 If your intended referrer is your
15、best college pal or Aunt Winnie, proceed with caution. While it s great to have friends or family who can vouch for you on a personal level, many hiring managers are more interested in your professional abilities. And getting a referral from someone who can t even repeat what you do for a living may
16、 come across as a weak attempt at getting your foot in the door, not a strong recommendation. The best contact is one who knows your career progression and accomplishments. 2 Your dream job resides in sales and marketing, but your contact at the company works in tech support. At small companies, thi
17、s link may be sufficient enough to secure you an interview, but you cant always count on it. The best referral will come from someone who is knowledgeable about the open position and the kind of requirements and experience it entails. 3 If you decide that your contact is a strong one, then make your
18、 request in writing. Your potential referrer can then take the time to thoughtfully consider whether or not she is comfortable making an introduction before responding to you with her answer. And you give her a chance to quickly research any pertinent information regarding the hiring manager and job
19、 qualifications. 4 When making your referral request, ask your contact whether she is comfortable providing a referral. While you might be eager to cut to the chase by asking directly for an endorsement, a wishy-washy or noncommittal referral can be worse than no referral at all, so dont take it per
20、sonally if she refuses. But hopefully youve carefully considered your relationship with this person so that the answer is a confident “Yes!“ 5 Even if your contact agrees to put you in touch with the hiring manager, offer to take her to lunch so you can provide her with the information she needs to
21、deliver a strong referral. Describe your major professional accomplishments, and relate them to why you think you would be an ideal candidate for the listed position. By offering up the information she needs, you not only increase your chances of obtaining an interview, but you also make her look go
22、od to her coworkers by contributing an informed recommendation. Before you even know if you ve obtained the interview, send your referrer a thank-you note. Youll let her know that regardless of the outcome, you appreciate her time and effort. And even if this position doesnt pan out for you, your gr

24、egies FHelp your kids figure out who they are GBuild your kids sense of responsibility Mothers and fathers can do a lot to ensure a safe landing in early adulthood for their kids. Even if a jobs starting salary seems too small to satisfy an emerging adults need for rapid content, the transition from
25、 school to work can be less of a setback if the started-up adult is ready for the move. Here are a few measures, drawn from my book Ready or Not, Here Life Comes, that parents can take to prevent what I call “work-life uneasiness“. 1 You can start this process when they are 11 or 12. Periodically re
26、view their emerging strengths and weaknesses with them and work together on any shortcomings, like difficulty in communicating well or collaborating. Also, identify the kinds of interests they keep coming back to, as these offer clues to the careers that will fit them best. 2 Kids need a range of au
27、thentic role modelsas opposed to members of their clique, pop stars and vaunted athletes. Have regular dinner-table discussions about people the family knows and how they got where they are. Discuss the joys and downsides of your own career and encourage your kids to form some ideas about their own
28、future. When asked what they want to do, they should be discouraged from saying “I have no idea.“ They can change their minds 200 times, but having only a foggy view of the future is of little good. 3 Teachers are responsible for teaching kids how to learn:parents should be responsible for teaching
29、them how to work. Assign responsibilities around the house and make sure homework deadlines are met. Encourage teenagers to take a part time job. Kids need plenty of practice delaying gratification and deploying effective organizational skills, such as managing time and setting priorities. 4 Playing
30、 video games encourages immediate content. And hours of watching TV shows with canned laughter only teaches kids to process information in a passive way. At the same time, listening through earphones to the same monotonous beats for long stretches encourages kids to stay inside their bubble instead
31、of pursuing other endeavors. All these activities can prevent the growth of important communication and thinking skills and make it difficult for kids to develop the kind of sustained concentration they will need for most jobs. 5 They should know how to deal with setbacks, stresses and feelings of i
32、nadequacy. They should also learn how to solve problems and resolve conflicts, ways to brainstorm and think critically. Discussions at home can help kids practice doing these things and help them apply these skills to everyday life situations. What about the son or daughter who is grown but seems to
33、 be struggling and wandering aimlessly through early adulthood? Parents still have a major role to play, but now it is more delicate. They have to be careful not to come across as disappointed in their child. They should exhibit strong interest and respect for whatever currently interests their fled
