Interview Preparation

Interviewing Tips and articles to assist you in preparing to handle your job
interviews successfully.

1.Determine your job search objective prior to writing the resume.
Once you have determined your objective, you can structure the content of your
resume around that objective. Think of your objective as the bull's-eye to focus
your resume on hitting. If you write your resume without having a clear
objective in mind, it will likely come across as unfocused to those that read
it. Take the time before you start your resume to form a clear objective.


2.Think of your resume as a marketing tool. Think of yourself as a
product, potential employers as your customers, and your resume as a brochure
about you. Market yourself through your resume. What are your features and
benefits? What makes you unique? Make sure to convey this information in your
resume.

3.Use your resume to obtain an interview, not a job. You don't
need to go into detail about every accomplishment. Strive to be clear and
concise. The purpose of your resume is to generate enough interest in you to
have an employer contact you for an interview. Use the interview to provide a
more detailed explanation of your accomplishments and to land a job offer.


4.Use bulleted sentences. In the body of your resume, use bullets with
short sentences rather than lengthy paragraphs. resumes are read quickly. This
bulleted sentence format makes it easier for someone to quickly scan your resume
and still absorb it.

5.Use action words. Action words cause your resume
to pop. To add life to your resume, use bulleted sentences that begin with
action words like prepared, developed, monitored, and presented.

6.Use
#'s, $'s and %'s. Numbers, dollars, and percentages stand out in the body of a
resume. Use them. Here are two examples:
"Managed a department of 10 with a
budget of $1,000,000."
" Increased sales by 25% in a 15-state territory."


7.Lead with your strengths. Since resumes are typically reviewed in 30
seconds, take the time to determine which bullets most strongly support your job
search objective. Put those strong points first where they are more apt to be
read.

8.Play Match Game. Review want ads for positions that interest
you. Use the key words listed in these ads to match them to bullets in your
resume. If you have missed any key words, add them to your resume.

9.Use
buzzwords. If there are terms that show your competence in a particular field,
use them in your resume. For marketing people, use "competitive analysis." For
accounting types, use "reconciled accounts."

10.Accent the positive.
Leave off negatives and irrelevant points. If you feel your date of graduation
will subject you to age discrimination, leave the date off your resume. If you
do some duties in your current job that don't support your job search objective,
leave them off your resume. Focus on the duties that do support your objective.
Leave off irrelevant personal information like your height and weight.

11.Show what you know. Rather than going into depth in one
area, use your resume to highlight your breadth of knowledge. Use an interview
to provide more detail.

12.Show who you know. If you have reported to
someone important such as a vice president or department manager, say so in your
resume. Having reported to someone important causes the reader to infer that you
are important.

13.Construct your resume to read easily. Leave white
space. Use a font size no smaller than 10 point. Limit the length of your resume
to 1-2 pages. Remember, resumes are reviewed quickly. Help the reader to scan
your resume efficiently and effectively.

14.Have someone else review
your resume. Since you are so close to your situation, it can be difficult for
you to hit all your high points and clearly convey all your accomplishments.
Have someone review your job search objective, your resume, and listings of
positions that interest you. Encourage them to ask questions. Their questions
can help you to discover items you inadvertently left off your resume. Revise
your resume to include these items. Their questions can also point to items on
your resume that are confusing to the reader. Clarify your resume based on this
input.

15.Submit your resume to potential employers. Have the courage to
submit your resume. Think of it as a game where your odds of winning increase
with every resume you submit. You really do increase your odds with every resume
you submit. Use a three-tiered approach. Apply for some jobs that appear to be
beneath you. Perhaps they will turn out to be more than they appeared to be once
you interview for them. Or perhaps once you have your foot in the door you can
learn of other opportunities. Apply for jobs that seem to be just at your level.
You will get interviews for some of those jobs. See how each job stacks up. Try
for some jobs that seem like a stretch. That's how you grow -- by taking risks.
Don't rule yourself out. Trust the process. Good luck in your job search!
