Recession Proof Your Job Interview

By Sandra Mosley

Recession: Don’t you agree it has become the most familiar word of late? It has hit every strata of the society harder than anyone would have expected. Job losses and salary cuts are just a few of its effects. How does it impact your interview? Moreover, how would you recession proof your job interview? Here are some tips to recession proof your interview.

Show Commitment to the Company In The Job Interview

Employers would never want to hire someone who might seem to be joining the company only for a short period of time. This only makes them think the applicant is not committed enough to the position and does not regard the job with seriousness as he does intend to stay on it for long. Employers always prefer staffs who work with them for a long term. They are committed and serious about their job and the company. This point should never be forgotten. You can recession proof your job interview.

Practice your job interview with someone before going to the actual interview. Learn to demonstrate interest and enthusiasm. Show your commitment during the interview. Ask them for their opinion as to your performance. This will better equip you for the actual job interview.

Even if you believe you are the best suited for the position you have applied for and you can help the employer with every single of his needs, don’t make him think you are trying to show off. Express a calculated response, or else it may adversely affect the person taking the interview.

Job Interview Follow Ups Are Important

After you have applied for a job and posted or emailed your resume, don’t sit back and wait. Try and follow up your application. This should not be too aggressive either. Try to build a rapport even before you appear for the job interview. A few call backs don’t harm your application. On the other hand, they make your employer notice your application more than he would generally.

Also it shows that you are interested and are quite serious about the job you are applying for, and increases the chance of your selection. It becomes easier to communicate once the ice has been broken. Hence, it may help to follow up even after the job interview.

Personality and Attitude

A proper attitude and a pleasant personality help immensely to secure you a job. During this tough time of recession, such qualities make you better noticed and considered before the other applicants. This increases your chances of fairing the job interview better than your competitors. Try and get to know anyone and everyone you deal with throughout the selection process. This builds up a relationship with the concerned authorities, and betters your chances of getting the job.

All these factors kept in mind can produce very favourable results to your job search and job interview outcomes even in this period of recession.

It’s time to put yourself in a position to win in all the stages of finding that perfect position with a powerful job interview.

Baby Boomer Job Fair Tips

Hey Baby Boomer. Attending job fairs can be a stressful experience, for anyone of any age, even a Baby Boomer. Hmmm, especially a baby boomer. First, you only have a few minutes to give you “hire me” commercial. Then you have to look like success. Whatever that means. Then in the back of your mind, you might be thinking of all the reasons you won’t get hired, you can’t see your competition, what is the recruiter really mean — stop!

So what you’re a seasoned professional, who happens to be back in the job market, you can make some deadly mistakes while attending job fairs.

Maybe it’s been a long time since you’ve had to look for a position. You’ve had the pleasure of longevity and success with an employer or industry. Or maybe life has changed and you are a late comer to the whole job search thing. If that’s the case, selling yourself, when competing for a position may be a quality you have to enhance.

When you think about it selling yourself, competing against the invisible competitors, networking, being socially approachable, you have to do something different. My children used to call it, “making friends”. Let me explain and preface this by saying

So what you are not a friendly person or you are shy or even scared you can still be successful at the job fair. However, it will take a little work, and a small price to be paid.

Pay what price! Now stay with me. Remember you have to do something different. Paying a price is simply the following:

You have to talk to other people. Go someplace out of your comfort zone and talk to other people. The grocery store, the bank, your neighbor, the movies, etc. Even if all you can say is, “hi”, just do it. Practice, practice, practice. This is so important because you will need to talk to people and employers at the job fair. If you are uncomfortable, it shows. It will show in the way you approach an employer’s booth, your handshake, eye contact, what you say, etc.

If you follow this Baby Boomer Job Fair Tip, you will be steps closer to getting the job you want. You will be able to navigate through a job fair better than other baby boomers with confidence.
