[b]why Should You Be Hired?[/b] by Escobar1(m): 3:19pm On Aug 06, 2010
When was the last time you sat for a Job test, or an interview, And what did you think your chances were
You probably had over 500 people hustling for that same position, why would they pick you??

These are few, amongst many, questions that sweats the minds of many job seekers; and how well, and confidently, can "thyself" provide answers.

If you were the HRM would you hire you for that position

Lets agree you graduated from school with a good grade(experiences has shown grades only hold prior to the first invitation), and you speak good english(so many others do), the question is: Who r u, what are your competencies, and what are the value additions you are promising

Your first answers to the HRM are in your CVs, cover letters and other application docs; after which he decides whether to give you an invite for that Job or not.

How appropriate are your docs for this particular job, or you just forwarded an earlier sent item

Is this job in line with your career path/goal(note: your career path must not necessary be a derivative of your first degree), or is it simply for self-preservation

Agreed, you need a job, but what are your justification for employment


Job Opportunities are few these days, but how sad it is when you find one and meet it with unpreparedness.

What i recommend: Prepare and Pray!!!

PS: i also recommend new job seekers should watch "The Apprentice,", it is quite educating!!!
