"Interview Tip"
Question! If you are offered the position, how soon can you start?
You may think responding that you can start as soon as possible! Is the correct answer. It may be if you are currently unemployed. However, if you are currently working I think that is a bad response.
Most would agree the correct answer should be two weeks. Why? It shows that you’re loyal to your current team and not someone who just leaves them hanging. That is what most employers would expect. #AWU #disability #jobs #interviewtips

"Interview Tip"
It is commonly observed that only a small percentage of job applicants make it to the interview stage of the hiring process. If you have a job interview scheduled, you are competing with an unknown number of candidates who have already been deemed promising based on their resumes.
Preparing for your job interview is essential and will be more time-consuming than the interview itself. With every job interview, be aware of the four primary qualities hiring managers look for in candidates.
Ability to communicate effectively Being capable of doing the job Being a good fit for the company Being an agreeable person #AWU #disability #jobs #interviewtips

Question!
If you won $10 million, what would you do?
This question is looking to check a couple of things.
Do you have long term thinking in response to situations or do you respond with a knee perk reaction
Are you committed to your profession and therefore an employer or are you the type of person who will job hop.
Are you fiscally responsible.
Are you a caring person.
An example of a response would be:
"The first thing I would do is to take a breath and evaluate what it really means to me. I would pay off all of my debt. I would also pay back my parents for all they did for me. I would donate some to charity. Also, I love what I do so I would keep working." #AWU #disability #jobs #interviewtips

"Interview Tip"
The question "Tell me about yourself" is a common one in interviews, but be careful how you answer it.
A long-winded, boring answer, can bring a quick end to the interview. Please don't launch into a long summary of your life story and resume. It can cause an abrupt end to the interview.
Instead, deliver the concise elevator pitch that highlights your strengths, relevant experience and enthusiasm for the role that you worked on while preparing for the interview.
Remember you need to tailor your response to the job you're interviewing for, emphasizing the skills and experience most relevant to the position.
Tell the interviewer something they won't know from your application, and provide specific examples of projects or accomplishments that positively impacted your previous job. Focus on your personal contributions to showcase your individual strengths. #AWU #disability #jobs #interviewtips
