Interview Style
*http://www.CareerBuilder.com recommended style
An interviewer sits off or on camera and asks you questions. This gives employers a feel for how you interact with others.
•Sample Questions:
•What are your greatest strengths? Why?
•What accomplishment are you most proud of? Why?
•What motivates you? Why?
• Why would you be successful working in a team?
•How have your skills developed?
We coach you on keeping your answers are short and sweet. Employers want to learn about your accomplishments, but not necessarily listen to your life story.
Informational
Who are you and what have you done? This a good format to show off your great personality & enthusiasm. This style gives employers a little taste of who you are that can’t be seen in your resume. This gives a quick overview of how you got to be where you are today. Add in a professional fun fact about yourself, for example: “I am President of my companies humanitarian committee”. Just something to make the hiring manager crack a smile and remember you!
