Getting a job in tough times
What if you could walk into an interview and in about 20 minutes, convince everyone that you belonged on their "short list?" Imagine further that on your second interview, they said to you, "How soon can you start?"
Would you be interested in having that experience?
If so, read on. The following free information may prove to be priceless to you one day.
After weathering a long recession, some employers are hiring again. But such companies are selective about rewarding these coveted positions.
Business owners are looking for people who have good ideas that, when implemented, will help their company stay in business and even grow during tough economic times.
in order for you to have such ideas, you need to study the company where you want to work—before you arrange an interview there. Find out what it needs and determine if you know enough already or can learn to be of help in meeting those needs.
More important than a resume is the ability to recite a company's business history for the past year or two and then demonstrate some knowledge of what's going on in its respective industry.
And when you go on that interview, offer a plan that is designed to meet real needs the company is currently facing. Ask questions and listen to the answers.
What is effective listening? The ability to hear what people need. What's an effective conversation? One where you focus on how you will benefit the prospective employer and meet his (or her) need(s).
People who do these things are the people who get hired. May you be one of them. God bless!
