10 Ways To "Fill Up" Interview

There are a thousand ways to leave a negative impression on the first interview. We picked for you the most efficient.

Method # 1:


Come to the interview half an hour later and were not warned in advance about the delay. Even better come earlier and go for an hour in every open door, presented and remind yourself. Let the interviewer understand that you know his worth.

Method # 2:


Let you remember at first sight! Remember that meet on "their looks." Dress provocatively. Girl advise more cosmetics, toilet water and decorations. A young man - come in a tracksuit. Show that you exercise and follow healthy. To consolidate the effect runs in a tracksuit from home to office.

Method # 3:


During the interview, show interest to a prospective employer! First of all the interview ask what the company and that means an unfamiliar word in the title of the vacancy.

Method # 4:


Do not even think to take with a printed resume! Hint interviewer that it was supposed to take care of himself. Well, or any other secretary.

Method # 5:


During the interview, do not try to turn off the cell phone. Suddenly you call Mom! Family - is sacred, and for a job interview is not an obstacle to pay a conversation a few minutes. HR must assess you a family man. These people need a team! After talking with my mother, do not apologize to the specialist. Not at all!

Method # 6:


Embellish their accomplishments, stretching the truth about education and experience, come up with an amazing story of career path ... and then confuse the details of his story.

Method # 7:


Speak badly about past employers. Use the word "tyrant." Chief blame for their failures. Think cute lamb - it always works! Do you believe it!

Method # 8:


Behave arrogantly. Show that you need them more than they are to you. Become a leader in speaking, do not be afraid to interrupt the interviewer, he's here for you, do not forget about it!

Method # 9:


When my turn comes to your questions HR-specialist, first ask what you will pay, and how many months it will improve. Distinguished himself as a business man!

Method # 10:


End the interview before it will make the interviewer. Tell us what you have in front of several meetings and waiting for you elsewhere. Quickly say goodbye, say they are waiting for the call and are ready to start work on Monday. If you notice the face of HR puzzling - it means that he discouraged and fascinated! The fact hat. Keep it up!

How To Survive A Disastrous Interview Jobs

Every happens to us. And the interview - it's not exactly the most pleasant moment in life. This is a test for resistance. Sometimes, in the morning spilled coffee on his shirt, the bus left, but you forgot the purse at home and even to the same sat phone ... And if it coincided with the day of the interview? Wow! How to survive the day and hope for a miracle!

The degree of desperation # 1 // Before and during the interviews:

1. You're late:


Of course, it is bad and we hide it from you will not. But please, do not make excuses. It sounds like the school "my dog ​​ate the homework", "I did, but I forgot." Even worse is when you start to talk about it, what terrible traffic jams now and that many people on the subway. But another thing, if you had a good reason (sick children / relatives / urgently needed to help someone). After all, the sooner you begin to interview, the better. If you have not printed a resume, then Be smart. Open it on the tablet. Or then again ... sorry (no arrivals!).

2. You forgot the name of the recruiter and know nothing about the company:


If you're in his office, then look through the eyes (try to look appropriate in this case) any - there must be a name. And if you do not remember and can not find, simply avoid mentioning, but in the end, take a card and hope that such nonsense you will not happen again. Know the name is important.

If you are asked why you chose this company as well, you know nothing at all about it, then to speculate about what the proposed position different from the position in which you are now. Try to steer, but in any case do not show perfect ignorance. Ask questions!

3. You have the phone rang, and said no elephant:


Yes, you forgot to turn it off. Rapidly blushing, apologize and turn off the sound. In any case, pick up the phone at a time will be seen as disrespectful, even if you just say "call back later."

4. You do not understand the question that you asked:


Try to rephrase it using the construction "You mean, as I understand it (a) ...." It is best to ask a question so that you ask to repeat it. And suddenly, in the middle of thinking insert "So what was your question?".

5. The interviewer is rude to you, or just a very strange behaves:


"Yes, your Gavrilov-Yamskaya University is known for its philosophical faculty", "your resume, I did not even print out", "We need a person with normal experience" - even asserting itself as you want! If the position is really well suited to you, keep yourself in hand and think about what not work for the man.

Sometimes recruiters ask very strange questions like:



  • What do you pizza toppings?
  • Who are you on the zodiac sign and when were you born?
  • In what position do you sleep?

6. An awkward silence:


Laugh it off. Or, if a serious question, just tell the recruiter that you need a minute to think. This is quite an honorable way out, rather than become flushed, sweat, start to bear some nonsense.

  • Emotions going wild at all:

All recruiters too once experienced this, and you will understand if you need to go out or you ask for water. Do not be nervous. Just honorably passed through this test, which a prior uncomfortable for the person. Be yourself and even if you make a mistake, draw conclusions for the future. In general, in the process of falling into depression and discouragement is not exactly an option.

The degree of despair 2 // After the interview:

1. Assess the degree of disaster:


Firstly, most people who have just been on the interview convinced that proved to be not the best (read a book by Professor Katherine Brooks You Majored in What? Mapping Your Path from Chaos to Career). So first try to soberly assess yourself and your interviewer. Did he deliberately takes you out of balance a strange question: "What are you an animal?". So discomfort after - not a sign of failure.

2. Praise yourself for something ..:


Maybe you nervously joked (we believe it was funny) or shared the interview with something interesting in addition to "I'm sociable, responsible and generally quite think of anything." You did everything right. And praise yourself which managed to show you all of a sudden.

3. Broken heart or thunder and lightning?:


Disappointment, anger, you're funny, you feel sad, you feel like it - try to assess the feeling with which you leave the interview. And yet, try to remember at what point you suddenly - is exactly what will be the starting point (the question / opinion / your answer) your uncertainty in the results.

4. Wait for the results and do not panic:


Sometimes even the most bizarre interview as good stories end happily. So do not try to write sms in our culture it is not accepted. Politely say goodbye and wait for results. But if the answer and no decision was followed by a week- write interviewer asking to explain what went wrong and what exactly do you make a mistake.

How To Write A Cover Letter Magic And Profitable To Sell Yourself

In a perfect fairy-tale world, we find no problem pleasing our job without any problems to get a new job. We call us the right amount of money and we have no problem appoint a salary. Unfortunately, life is not so, and for a place in the sun have to fight.

In this text, we will tell you how very profitable to sell yourself before the interview.

Draw attention of a recruiter will help outrageous and / or punctuality.

If you speak the language of psychology, there are two basic ways to draw people's attention on anything - catching and matching his expectations. Indeed, the first thing we notice, or something very bright, or what really corresponds with our expectations. 

Every day the recruiter scans hundreds or maybe even thousands of resumes and cover letters. If you - quite expensive specialists and can afford some shocking, I recommend going to the first path. That is the way catching. For example, if you like the vacancy senior financial analyst, then your cover letter and resume should be labeled, such as "The Wizard of financial analysis." Attention guaranteed pay. 

But that's the way it is expensive for a specialist who can afford to light trolling conservative banking structures. 

If you - it's just you, you still should choose the second path - matching expectations. Job title, usually formed very specific - for example, "browser market dietary supplements and homeopathic remedies." However, many applicants openly lazy to create a resume and cover letter for a particular position and call it a "journalist" or at best "medical journalist." Calling your resume and cover letter correctly, you are guaranteed to attract the attention of a headhunter, to seek out the right people for key words in the title. Plus, you show the recruiter that you care and attention to detail man. 

Why not create outrageous steep resume? This can be done with us . 

Make a recruiter in your values ​​will use headhunters familiar concepts and names. 

Scientifically proven: the easier it is something present, the more likely it seems that event. Employees of Staff - ordinary people, not unlike us.When they study your resume and see there some clear and familiar things, they believe it is much more likely. "What nonsense, this firm can be reached only after the MGU or MGIMO" - so one of my friends reacted when he saw the little-known in the summary of the applicant university, standing next to a prestigious job in the office. 

But do not despair if you do suddenly went to a little-known institution, and (for the complexity of the problem) do not work in large companies whose names are on the ear. Use the halo effect is to add value to itself as a competitor. For example, if you are in the study had to speak at a conference at MGIMO - definitely check this fact. If your little-known company has worked closely with large state holdings - tell us about it. Faced with the familiar and understandable names, recruiters relax and believe in you.

How To Write A Cover Letter Magic And Profitable To Sell Yourself


Request a salary higher than the market will help you use anchors in the form of inflated amounts. 

Scientifically proven fact - when we try to assess the value of an object, we always start from some initial set of numbers ("anchor") and correct them in the future. Imagine a situation - you have successfully passed the interview and they ask you how much you are worth. If you type the audacity to specify the amount several times higher than your value, then further negotiations will go on adjusting this amount up or down. For example, if you request 100 K per month (prepared in the same place 40), there is a high probability that the result will be assigned amount in the region of 80-90 C. If you really like it if the company has any extra money if you do not They named their wages from the previous job. 

By the way, if you "skromnyashka" and can not crank out such a focus, then there is an easier option. Try to mention the anchor figure in the text accompanying letter, preferably several times. You can even regardless of money. For example, say that for the time you have implemented about 100 projects and spent about 100 presentations. The beauty lies in the fact that the consciousness of your interlocutor still tune to the number 100, and he starts to figure your reward, starting from this figure. 

But I personally still would not have to rely on tricks with the unconscious and announced directly to that amount. 

Knowing these little psychological techniques will increase your chance of being in the company of your dreams, with a salary of your dreams. These technologies will allow you to truly meticulously choose their place of work and open the door to actually kick.

6 Mistakes That Twenty Years

Perhaps this is the most difficult period in the life of every human being. Especially if he is aware of this and does not understand what he wants from you, from life, from the future. You know, you can quickly make mistakes, but they need to comprehend and accept wisely and slowly. We will try. Fortunately, this is always (!) Is the time.

1. We think that 20 years - an age when everything is possible, and the solution can be changed

Nevertheless, this is the age of the most important decisions in our lives. If you look back 50-60 years ago, you probably think of myself twenty years. Yes, these are the first steps on the way up the career ladder, in a family plan, but it moves, and the pace of that sound which is heard all my life.

2. We declare loudly about themselves

Imagine that you - the fish. In the vast ocean of fish more experienced and serious. And you also a little. As you can see you? According to the features that distinguish you among the crowd. How many do not shout about your wonderful merits - here you can not hear. Not because you're not worthy. Here, just silence. Here's a metaphor. Try to immediately find their difference and carry it with dignity.

3. We, Dr. Wade loves rapidly resign

Yes, everyone in this age is inherent in youthful maximal-ism. Do not you one. However, it is worth considering before you leave the place of work: all I got here? Do I have enough connections to move on? where would I go? I manage? Be reasonable - do not run an application if your colleague is very sociable and you are sick of it. Catch Zen!

4. Status and money - is paramount at this age

Our survey group VKontakte showed that about 70% of young people choose money (wealth) rather than inspiration. What does it mean? Meeting the needs of the status of this age and the attainability of this status is available with money. What is not very true. 

20 years - the age when you can get the knowledge that when the brain operates on the absorption of information and rapid digestion. Who is easier to remember, think of to learn, and just your mind to it and continue to work at all as an ideal mechanism!

Do not just set sail in search of material, because in order to get the status, you need to have enough confidence. 

6 Mistakes That Twenty Years

5. P ly be adrift!

And it would be better to set goals.It sounds boring, we know, but the truth is. If you now focus on one thing, something that appeals to you, instead of spreading on unnecessary things - you will thank yourself later.

6. We love to compete with everyone. Not with him.

This is a favorite thing! Wait. We know that twenty years just need to assert themselves and they do it thanks to the victories. Over others. Instead of war with him, to go for a jog, to enroll. It is not necessary to strive for in order to be better than anyone else. Be better than you are now. Let's get together.

6 Dangerous Beliefs That Can Ruin Your Career

There are some incredibly dangerous statements with which we go through life, and constantly bear repeating. And they at some point may adversely affect your career confidence.

Hazardous conviction # 1: Perfectionism = Success:

Human beings, so arranged by nature, are fallible. When perfectionism, the ideal result is your main goal, you always live with a terrible fear to make a mistake, spend too much time complaining that something is not possible, instead rejoice already made. In general, do not overdo in his life with a thrust to the ideal of creation. Because nature does not create ideal forms, but the most beautiful apples in the store are always grated wax and are composed of a pinch of GMOs.

Hazardous belief # 2: My destiny is ordained:

So many people are obsessed with the idea of ​​completely irrational that they are destined to succeed somewhere, and somewhere in the fall. Stop it now! Your destiny, life is in your hands, and the use of certain forces beyond your control to justify both victories and defeats, it is doubly unacceptable. Sometimes life gives you a card in the hands of the pagans, and sometimes you swindles. Your desire to transfer to the "wrong" hands on this game - absolutely obvious forfeited. PS Psychic fifth generation Claudius advise you never to play cards;)

Hazardous belief # 3: Always or Never!:

There is no-thing in this life that you have always done or ever will do. Remember, you told my mom that will never vandalize? break cup? So what? Get it? Limit your life, your actions, your behavior such concepts just fundamentally wrong. This all means that you can not control your life or do not want to change it. Do not give in and just honestly tell yourself that you will make mistakes and will go to McDonald's again.

Hazardous belief # 4: I do well when others disapprove:


I do well when others disapprove
I do well when others disapprove

Regardless of what people think about you at any time of life, one thing for sure is true in most cases: you are not as bad as they say, but not so good. If Elena at the school told you that you're a genius, and you need a Nobel Prize, you try it as soon as possible to forget. Most often, such praise is relaxing, not stimulating. You can not just disconnect from the opinions of others, but you must learn to take everything with a pinch of salt. As a positive sense and in a negative. Not so it is important that people think about you, but your self-confidence and self-esteem only your handiwork.

Hazardous belief # 5: My future My past =:

Repeated mistakes and failures can affect your self-confidence, and hard to believe that so often you can achieve success in the future. But you must remember that any failure is the result of what you risk, take responsibility for themselves. No fault can affect your ability to achieve success. Before you learn how to ride a bike, everyone had to strip the knees. So keep falling, because sooner or later all will.

Hazardous conviction # 6: My emotions = Reality:

We must learn to look objectively at their emotions. Yes, it sounds weird. Emotions destroy your vision of reality, you drive themselves and are wasting their potential. So sometimes turn off the emotions.

Corporations And Start-Ups What Will You Choose?

We are sure that you have friends who were able to build a great career in large corporations, or could leave them open a successful business, and in both cases felt (and feel) happy.

Once again, we have tried to understand and identify the main differences between our view and the criteria by which you can determine where you should go.

So, we highlight 4 (a half) of the main differences between the beginning of a career in start-ups and corporations (and stability of the social package, we do not mention, because here everything is clear, and it is unlikely to 20+ is someone vital ).

1. Diversification:


This difference is probably the main thing. Working in corporations, especially in the initial position, you will be responsible for some one direction (and even more so for his part) and only occasionally will have the opportunity to do something else.

Take a simple example: working in the audit you will be limited not only by its specialization, but also likely a certain sector of the economy, whether it's Oil & Gas, TMT or engineering. Of course, you will have the possibility to grasp and work out how to tax and (if you're lucky), corporate finance, but in any case 90% + you will deal only with the audit.

Work as a start-up, especially at the initial stage, it means that you have (or at least are willing to) be (become) a jack of all trades. Something one does not get engaged in at least two reasons: the first is likely a start-up will not be a specialist for each specific direction (and engage in this direction should be), and secondly, as a rule, to create a truly successful product Each team member should be aware of and involved 146% in each direction. So regardless of the role for which you have to work, get ready to explore the basics of code, multiple destinations internet marketing (SMM / e-mail / context, and so forth.), Methods PR-a, based on sales, etc.

What does that mean for the candidate?:


It's simple. If you know exactly what you want to do, in a start-up you do nothing, because 100% focus on your desired specialization you do not get. However, if you are still in search of themselves and want to try yourself in different directions (and not just to try and become a professional), the work in a start-up can be an excellent choice.

2. Responsibility:


It should be understood that the responsibility, even in the most rigorous and demanding the head can not be compared with the direct responsibility of the client (user of your product).

For example, imagine a situation where you are working as an analyst at IB, within 2 weeks of day and night were the presentation of 100 slides, which you must bring a deal to several billion dollars (0.5% commission for the bank). Who do you show it? Immediately customer? Of course not: it first looks and give your Associate your comments (and may parallel good mate because the color of the title does not match the corporate brand book), then it will look VP and will also give their comments (and may scold you for that one line to three millimeters moved out). As a result, in the end, when all the presentation will be shown to the customer, the responsibility for its success will rest not on your shoulders.

Corporations And Start-Ups What Will You Choose?
Corporations And Start-Ups What Will You Choose?


At start-up, the situation is reversed. Despite the fact that the results of your work will likely pass filter at CEO / CTO / CMO (so if you are not) before the product will take advantage of the client, the responsibility for the result of a 50% + will lay it on you.

What does that mean for the candidate?:


It's simple: it employs the classic ratio of risk-reward (the higher one - the more different). If successful, the start-up you will feel in seventh heaven, but in case of failure - trampled into the ground. In the case of work in corporations amplitude of joy and disappointment will be much less.

3. Education:


One of the biggest advantages and value proposition is the ability of corporations constantly held training courses paid by the employer and to learn from fellow industry professionals. Start-ups often, no one will deal with your form, and you will not learn from someone (meaning it learn your specialization).

It seems that on this point the corporation really beat start-ups. But is it really?

We live in an era when education every day is becoming more affordable: almost everything you can learn / explore online and even consult with professionals via Facebook / LinkedIn. The only obstacle to learn new skills and knowledge is the motivation. Training courses from corporations are essentially "kick" to learn something new. So, if you need a "kick" and a start-up it can not provide (for obvious financial reasons), then the problem is not a start-up, but you.

On the other hand, it motivates the employee start-up, as well as representative of the corporation, will always find an opportunity, a place and time in order to gain knowledge. Free courses, books, movies - all of this is now available to everyone.

What sways Benchmarking colleagues, here, too, it is not so obvious. Every day realities of the market, introduce new products, services and new technologies. Not the fact that your leaders to understand these new trends better than you.

What does that mean for the candidate?:


As it noted in the text, if you have enough motivation to train yourself using all kinds of tools available, the Corporation will not be able to offer you the "added value" in the context of education. However, if you need a "kick" to generate new knowledge / skills, then there is no corporate entity can not do.

4. Stability:


As you know, working for a company with a turnover of you, quite frankly, is very enticing, allows you to feel comfortable, stable. This, of course, wonderful, especially if you want to start a family and to travel wherever you want.

There should be a phrase about champagne and the risk. Start-ups do not sleep at night and never know whether anything like money, what will be the revenue and whether or not at all. And the champagne can not drink very often, but just because there is no time.

The same applies to your personal time. It is stable (relatively) will have when working in a large company, because there is absolutely working hours are clearly defined, but when working at a start-up you are unlikely to be able to accurately plan when you relax and when to work. Perhaps the rest will have to be postponed until better times. Like a dream.

What does that mean for the candidate?:


This means that you need to set priorities: if you want to become a universal soldier - choose start-up. You want to become an incredible professional in something one - you large companies. As you can imagine, and he and the candidates have different strengths. But both will be in demand.

4.5 Prestige:


In Russia still believed that a start - it is something frivolous (in principle understandable, given that in runet start-ups like to call the online stores selling fake boots and a coffee shop franchise), but the line in the summary with the mention well-known international corporations - is top class.

In the US, is bucking the trend and work in start-ups is considered more and more the promising: over the past few years the number of graduates of top MBA schools by the end of the departed not Goldman Sachs / McKInsey etc. It increased by an order. Over time, this trend, we believe, will be applicable in Russia (we all late).

On the other hand, if we recall the "prestige" of a personal nature, we can safely tell you that a start-up, though does not give you a solid ground under their feet, but it gives you the strength and the idea that you can do anything. The truth is everything. Make PR-company? Easy! Come up with a new project as part of its? Did.

You will always feel part of the team, whose members are always at the helm. In corporations, you also take place in a strictly calibrated at a large ship, and will be responsible for any problem in it. This gives you the opportunity to become a professional and just a connoisseur of your cover, but far from the wheel. And the sea is difficult to see!

Separately, (not even paragraph 4.75) would like to mention one more thing, at first sight, inconspicuous difference. The work in the corporation = work. Working in a start-up = lifestyle. We think comments here are unnecessary. Believe us, we know!

In conclusion, I want to bring up a little. So.

    

You should go to work in a corporation, if you:

a) have already decided what exactly you want to do (hint: and that brings you pleasure)

b) want to "sleep" and not be "on the razor's edge" 24/7

c) want to "pump" their skills at the expense of the employer

d) prefer to separate the concept of "work" and "private life"

You should try his hand at start-up, if you:

a) have not decided exactly what I want to and / or want to try different areas and at the same to become a professional in several areas

b) ready to be connected 24/7, and take to heart all the success or failure of the project

c) willing to do to look for ways to pump you need skills

d) you want to make your life described by the equation "work = life"

And finally, some points in the direction of start-ups in the form of quotes:

The more elusive the boundaries between your work and life, the more successful you probably are in both.

Search For A Job And Enjoy Life

Week, month, year - job search after graduation may be delayed. DW tells how to spend this time for the benefit of future career. And for myself.

Search jobs after graduation often delayed and instead of the expected two or three weeks, takes many months. Every day self-esteem drops lower and lower, and the only entertainment is becoming every minute checking email while waiting for news from the prospective employer. But this time can be carried out much more efficiently, to the benefit for future careers as well as for himself.

Time to act :


Of course, the most important during the job search - to find work. And do it actively. We woke up - and more! Read the ads in the newspapers, look for suitable offers on the sites of employment, going to job fairs, interested friends have not cleared a place in their company ...

"But to do this for eight hours a day, sending their documents to all companies in a row, it would be too much. It is better to concentrate on the job that you really interested in, and devote more time to each application," adjusting "it for a specific position and the company" - convinced Lucas Grosse Klёnne (Lukas große Klönne), chief editor of the blog on the topic of career online employment exchange

Those in search of work has to take part are advised to contact an expert it is possible with the area that you would like to devote myself in the future. "You can get in a call center, work on specialized fairs in the office. So you not only get hands-on experience, but also to meet new people. And it is very important. Through the direct contacts and the recommendation of friends in Germany, for example, is in the middle every second job ", - explained Lucas Grosse Klёnne in an interview with DW.

Will fill a forced pause and volunteering, I'm sure Ilka Bucher (Ilka Buecher), head of the Career Center of the University Luneburg. Money volunteering, of course, does not work, but the decoration of the resume becomes clear. Jobs in nursing homes, care for children, support large families ... These facts of your biography and say to the employer: a "soft skills" - the ability to communicate, work in a team - everything is in order. In addition, voluntary work brings a great moral satisfaction. And with faith in themselves and find a job much easier.

My e "i"

Time for dinner ... And do not look at whether your favorite social network? Not for fun. "What is the impression formed about you of a man who" zaguglit "your name? It is important that you have been presented on the Internet in a good light," - emphasizes Lucas Grosse Klёnne. Instead photo corona dance on a table with a Christmas party is to post information about the university, and their specialty areas of practice. It makes sense to have a profile on professional social networks, for example, Xing or LinkedIn. Ask the professor "post it" for you a brief description, at least in a couple of sentences, and the head of the practice - to describe your accomplishments.

If you - a representative of the creative profession, spend time trying to make your own website and publish their work there. I can not wait to share my thoughts about the future profession? Start a blog to describe their ideas, comment on the news on topics of interest to you. At a minimum, these things will convince personnel officers that you are familiar with the computer. At most, they are interested in the information you provide. This means that a call with an invitation to an interview does not have to wait too long.

Tighten the knowledge and self-esteem :


That evening: the time to indulge in pleasant memories ... for example, how in school you studied French for three years, and the university went to the Polish elective. Then why not enroll in a language course or a refresher? Additional foreign language will improve your chances of employment. No language skills? Go to the workshop, become a volunteer at the university. Do not forget to regularly update the resume.

However, if the job was delayed, the problem may be not so much an excess of time as a loss of faith in yourself. "Of course, it discourages, if you sent 20 applications and have not received any positive response," - says Lucas Grosse Klёnne. What to do? "Enjoy life! Make things which had never got around: get right, learn to play the guitar. This will help distract and recharge your batteries - suggests the expert. - In the end, when you start working, you will live on the holiday before the holiday . So now you can even afford to go somewhere for a couple of weeks. "

In turn, Ilka Bucher is confident that if you want you can go on all six months. What if the interview take an interest in space Months of resume? "Tell me, what have dreamed about this trip a lifetime and made efforts to fulfill the dream, when the opportunity presented itself. It will describe you as a person who set goals and achieve them," - she said.

Tips For Building A Career In A Large Organization

WHO TOPOM WAS NOT, HE DID NOT SEE LIFE. Living in a big corporation is fundamentally different from the world of small or small companies. Those who are in the corporate world as an adult or after work experience in the service, project business, where everything is tied to the result, may experience serious difficulties in building a career.

Typically, the most difficult to account for those who by their facial features refers to the "doer" and not the "functionaries". First - this is the people for whom it is important to achieve real measurable results. They are like a fish in water feels in project selling and marketing divisions. They can ignore the bureaucratic barriers to the extent that it does not prevent the achievement of business objectives. "Functionaries" are easily adapted to the environment where the work is built around procedures, regulations, rules. For them, the hours of RAM are not the problem, on the contrary, participation in all events, one way or another reflect the processes, it is the work.

The top managers of the reach both of them, but with different energy consumption. The laborers have to adapt to the unusual pastime or a meaningless event. That ye workers often underestimate the importance of political processes in the company. They find it difficult to conduct multi-way talks within the company, to take into account the interests of different groups and wait until finally it will be possible to develop a simple work.

In my experience working in the corporate world and the experience of counseling usually I give the following advice to those who are in the corporate world for the first time, after work in the service of the company, or is an obvious doer of their profile.

1. Be prepared for the fact that at the crucial moment of your results will be judged not on the facts, figures, indicators, and by the fact that someone said something. Or that all your exploits at any time can be mitigated, if you make something on the brink of corporate traditions. For example, dismissing the old employee who sabotaged your work. Or, God forbid, a couple of these.

2. Never attribute all the laurels of victory. Correct head give the laurels to his team. A correct corporate players - part laurels always delegate colleagues at the same level of the hierarchy.

3. Immediately determine for themselves that the results of your work in a corporation - it's not just the turnover-profit-margin, cost-efficiency. It is your efforts to maintain the circuit in the safety organization and integrity. And that means - building constructive relationships with all the key people and maintaining them.
And the most intimate advice, do not print - no one believe.

№ 2. The working day does not end exactly at 17:00:


Of course, for the sake of the employees move up the career ladder should not be delayed on a daily basis in the workplace, and to give up lunch break. However, in determining the best team member employee willingness to stay after work or come in the output is a key factor. Pay attention to those who own offers to help work overtime.

See how your employees are looking for new information. Do they want to improve their skills in areas where there are very strong? Look for any new knowledge in their specialty, or simply rely on old experiences?

№ 6. They are waiting for an assessment of their work and do not take offense to criticism:

№ 7. They do not hide career ambitions:


Quite often, employees as if casually talk about wanting to get a raise. Much less when they ask the head of what you need to do to move up the career ladder. Pay attention to those who seek career and does not hide his professional ambitions.

Top 5 Questions To The Employer In Hiring

Be honest. Often it seems a waste of time the final part of an interview for employment where the employer asks if some questions for him. Indeed, often, if applicants and enjoy this opportunity, then they are interested in something immaterial.

However, this is a great opportunity that has a lot to clear up. Below are five questions to the applicant, who can pick it up in the eyes of the employer and to help future career.

What result do you expect from me in the next 60-90 days?


Great candidates want to immediately get down to business. They do not want to spend weeks or months on "familiarity with the organization." They want to change the situation immediately.

What are the common features have your best top managers?


Good candidates are aimed at long-term and successful work. Each organization is distinguished by its climate and values, and it is important to understand the key qualities of the most successful employees.

Perhaps the best employees work the longest. Perhaps creative discovery in the company valued higher than methodology. It is possible that the constant search for new customers in new markets the company is more important than maintaining a long-running relationship with old customers. Perhaps the company is willing to spend time and resources on education beginners to to coach them technologically.

Good candidates want to understand whether they are fit to work, and if suitable, they want to show the best results.

Top 5 Questions To The Employer In Hiring
Top 5 Questions To The Employer In Hiring


What are some factors that are fundamental to the success of your company?


The company invests in its staff, and each employee must make a positive contribution, which will pay his salary. For each position there are different kinds of activity. The employer needs to close the gap, but it also needs a candidate that will bring more money and training that will not cost much.

Good candidates want to know exactly how they can make a profit. They know that the company's success also means success for them personally.

The employees do in their spare time?


Happy workers: 1) love what they do; 2) feels sympathy for the people they work with.

Every company is faced with serious challenges: changes in technology and the market entry of competitors, changing economic trends ...

The applicant considers the position as a stepping stone in his own career, which means that he believes in the growth and development of the company. And if he does not rule out leaving the company in the future, he prefers that to happen as a result of his own initiative and not as a result of the bankruptcy of the company or layoffs.

Let's say you walk into an interview with a sports network, which offers competitors store the other day less than a kilometer. As the company is planning to compete? Or, in the case of the farm business, the company is going to do in connection with the increase in world food prices?

Good candidates want to know not only what the prospective employer thinks about it, they want to know what he intends to do and how they can help the execution of these plans.

The Secret To A Successful Applicant

During the search operation, much depends on whether we understand the very meaning of the job search - with his hand, and the meaning of the search an employee - the employer. Success comes to those candidates that are well understood and the interest and the interest of the employer.

How to behave correctly when applying for a job, these two interests reconciled?

So - first, How To Behave Incorrectly:


Employee - "Hello, I recently graduated from college, I have a diploma of manager. You do not need managers? And the family, a small child, we need money, and will not take the job. "
It is not difficult to guess what will be the response of the employer - "No, I do not need, we have no available positions, nothing can help you."

Many employees stereotype that the employer is the seller of jobs and workers - a buyer. And do not even buyers and asylum. They are going to get a job with a sense of complete dependence on the employer, with fear in his heart, 'take - do not take. " And all of it is similar to a request: "You just take me, and I ..."

Well, the employer starts to dig, to feel God.

And now, how to properly conduct.

Who understands this, he will never stand in queues for unemployment insurance. The secret lies in the fact that the seller is the employee and the employer on the contrary is the buyer! It is the employer needs workers! And that is what he is ready to pay money!

The Secret To A Successful Applicant
The Secret To A Successful Applicant


The employee has a certain knowledge, qualities, skills that he can profitably sell. That he should choose - to whom he sells his knowledge! And before you get a job, you need to clearly understand for themselves what kind of knowledge we want to sell?

Well, for us to have something to sell, we have to learn consciously. That is, learn what really useful in life. If we learn and realize that just hammered his head with nonsense, is it worth to study at all? Do not it be better to develop and bring to perfection the abilities that awarded us the nature? After all, if we develop what we like, it will certainly achieve excellence in this area, and therefore the "product" to be out of competition, and employers will have to run after us, not we them.

If a student "propinal noodle" at the institute, and then by hook by crook received a diploma, it is unlikely that he will find a job in their field. Now employers dream of getting such a worker, who immediately set about the work, not learning it again. And if you have no practical knowledge of what you're going to sell on the labor market?

Maybe better to sell something that you really have? In such a case, and you will look much more confident. Suppose the boy went on to triple deuce, skip class, but all the time fiddling with his motorcycle. And well it might this study? Can develop the knowledge mechanic? Then the work will be fun and will be a lot to offer in the labor market.

So, the key points that you should pay attention:


1. We are able to perform some work, and we know that these "skills" have a price.
2. By focusing on their employer's real knowledge and abilities and not on the fact that graduated, where studied.
3. Money for us is not the purpose of employment, (we are not unemployed). It is important for quality and this quality, we are ready to work. And works well!
4. It is better to speak directly to the chief of department. Only he knows what shots he needs.

Advice On How To Successfully Pass Stress Interview

Sometimes it seems that the people most harmful substance in relation to their own kind. One of these harmful species may be just a recruiter. From it you can expect any catch. So: Who is at risk of running into a stress interview.
Stress is usually conducted interviews with candidates for positions related to the nervous work. As a rule, it - managers and their assistants, sales and customer service, advertising, insurance agents, journalists, office managers, experts on analysis of claims sellers.

Stress Interview:


Ordinary employees are tested for resistance to stress, loyalty, conflict-free and positive willingness to cooperate, as well as responsiveness and resourcefulness. Top managers and directors not only tested for resistance to stress, but also the presence of strong-willed qualities, leadership potential, confidence, willingness to solve problems in non-standard conditions.

During stressful interview for recruiters are not only the answers to the questions of the applicant but also his emotional reaction. If you start to defend, justify, angry, offended - did not pass the test. It is necessary that at all costs to maintain until the end of the conversation the ability to debate, a positive attitude, confidence, and not to give his irritation.

How to test for resistance to stress.

Test Expectation:


Applicant comes at the appointed time, but the interview begins. We have a long time to mark the door, sometimes in an empty hallway, where there is no place even to sit down. Recruiter saunter with a cup of coffee from room to room, throwing on the move: "Another minute."

Option for an ordinary employee - wait patiently. By waiting, you can prepare: seize the house laptop or stock magazine or book and showing calm, go about their business. Therefore, you demonstrate not only self-control, but also the capacity for continuous learning.

Future leaders should take the initiative - to find out why the meeting was not held at the appointed time. You can easily tell that the time to wait no more, politely say goodbye and walk away with the secretary. In most cases, it will not have time to get to his car, as he called back with a proposal to postpone the interview.

Tests, Questionnaires:


On their completion can take more than one hour. This tested the patience, loyalty to the company (then for some reason it is necessary) and the attitude to routine work.
If left in an empty hallway unfurnished and offers to fill in the questionnaire, do not do it "on the knee." Be sure to ask where you could sit down. Be prepared for the fact that the completed application form you may be asked to rewrite, and more than once, citing, for example, illegible handwriting.

Test Rudeness:


Recruiter rudely interrupted you, jumps from topic to topic without giving an opportunity to speak, and even reproaches: "I see that you have nothing to say." Do not interrupt, do not irritate and do not make excuses. Closely following the conversation, remember the questions that you supposedly have no answer. Wait until the end of the monologue and express your opinion.

Negative comments on your words, actions, "All this is nonsense, nonsense," "Well, this is unlikely to be useful to our company," "Your presentation seemed very weak and uninteresting." Trying to compete with the recruiter in this case is the failure. Pause, count to ten. Be calm, "Please specify moments in my story that you seemed weak. If this is true, I uchtu comments on the future. "
The recruiter asks questions in an incorrect manner. For example: "What are your actions in a previous job led to the collapse of the company?" Backlash give reason to accuse you not only in relation to painful criticism, but also the desire to hide the facts from their previous experience. Joked: "The company has ceased to operate normally after I left her." Or say that the company is thriving, and in it there is also your merit (but only if it is true).

He asks: "Why do you come here?" React as if he had heard the question "What are your strengths, which can be useful to our company." Tell about what you could do for the company if it became an employee.
Very proceeds to you. If the position you are applying for - linear, for example, the seller or the office manager - it can be assumed, but it is better not to take crony tone. Focus on the situation. But if a top position and tone of the conversation was not friendly, it is polite to ask, on what basis recruiter allows a "poke."

Personal Questions:


The easiest way to knock a person out of the ground under their feet. Questions may be the most unexpected and causes. For example, how often do you have sex? Do you use condoms? Do you have a mistress? Do not you pregnant now? Girls over 25 years like attempting the question "Why are you still single?".

Remember the feeling of self-esteem. You can politely refuse to answer such questions, explaining that the nuances of the intimate personal lives have nothing to do with the professional activity. If you find it difficult to answer, tell the recruiter that you feel ("Your question made me wonder"). You gain time, and the conversation can go in a different direction.

Do not short, remember that the interview - it's a game from which you can withdraw at any time. Include a sense of humor and tell anecdote in the subject, ask another question. The task of recruiter - test your reaction, not to find out the details of the private life. If you keep yourself in hand, you will be able to find an adequate response to even the most tactless question.

Uncomfortable Conditions:


Bright light in the face, smoky room, uncomfortable, or even a broken chair, "accidentally" spilled water on the clothes - all these experiments can detect your patience, resourcefulness, self-esteem and self-respect.
If you are put in conditions that are difficult to carry, - say so and ask them to change: to remove the bulb, replace the chair. Although it is sometimes created in the interview setting are consistent with the working reality. For example, the boss used to smoke cigars and have to work in a smoke-filled room.
If you fell off a broken chair - not stay calmly. You can make a joke: "Who does not fall, he is lying."

"Friend" and "Enemy":


Method contrast, when two recruiter talking to you in a completely opposite styles, one friendly, the other aggressive. Questions "other" predictable and understandable, and the "enemy" introduces difficulty interrupting, trying to provoke a conflict.

The main thing is do not panic - recruiters feel fear as dogs. Do not let the knock yourself confused, calmly answered questions. Unpleasant hints on deaf ears. - Your task is to focus on the content of the issue, not the form in which it is set. If the meaning is not clear, do not hesitate to ask for clarification.

It happens that not two, but several interviewers simultaneously sampled at a very fast pace, almost no time to think about giving back. This check on the reaction rate. Sometimes asking the same question many times, changing it slightly. Or, find fault with almost each phrase: "You mentioned that you were engaged in retail sales - in detail, please." It is important not to get lost in his own story, and certainly avoid the lies in which you want to catch.

In That They Are Ready For Work?


"What are you willing to sacrifice for the sake of this place?" - Said the director of the interview one of soiskatelnits. And then I asked the girl to cut her long, beautiful nails.

To find out what you're willing to work for the recruiter can offer anything. For example - to repaint the hair ("You come to us, the only problem - the director likes blondes") or even plastic surgery ("The Company will pay all costs").

How to respond to such requests? Remember the biblical parable that God commanded Abraham to lead his son Isaac to the slaughter, to experience his love to her. He was enough consent of Abraham to sacrifice his son. It is unlikely that the employer really wants to get your nails. All he has to do - find out whether you can diplomatically refuse to respond to unreasonable demands.

We can agree, but then show yourself a soft, malleable man. And you can laugh it off or politely say no. Say: "The hair I can hardly repaint, but to stay at work, if needed, is ready."

And when the offer is quite harmless, for example, sing or dance, then why not? If you know how, really sing - you show yourself a creative person uncomplexed. If you do not know - try to get out. Say that used to do well, we would like to learn a decent song and perform at the next interview.

A Glass Of Water In His Face:


Such methods of checking candidates, of course, are extreme, but we must be ready for him. Reply necessary, otherwise impress Akaky - willed person who is unable to fight back. So consider yourself recruiters.

Office employees, which of Rabota.ru interviewed, are inclined to different embodiments of "revenge." For some, a natural reaction - a brazen strike recruiter, especially if they did not know what job interview stress and provocative actions are planned. Others prefer to keep the first impulse and "beat with a sling," not with his fist, and the word - refer to the company or the police. Still others try to evade and avoid conflict, limiting the phrase "I think this conversation is over." Fourth, please provide your answer to such a disgrace - in the comments below.

However, the stress test as a way to interview candidates there. But first, it can not be used without exception for all. And, secondly, this hard test method should be used only by specially trained people - professionals of handling equipment to communicate. They do not go too far and follow the rules of the game. And in the end hold special events for the withdrawal of a person from a state of stress, end the conversation on a positive note and explain to the applicant why it had to be subjected to a severe test.
