“If you a make a sale you make a living. If you make an investment of time and good service in a customer, you can make a fortune.” – Jim Rohn

What shouldn't you do when interviewing? Here are the most common job interview mistakes, blunders, and errors a candidate for employment can make.

Unfortunately, it's easy to make these mistakes without even realizing it - and many of them are more common than you might think! Take the time to prepare before your interview, so you don't have to stress out about blunders after it.

Read on for the most common job interview mistakes, and how to avoid making them.

Dressing Inappropriately

When you interview a job, it's imperative to look professional and polished. Although your attire may vary based on the position you're applying for - for example, you should wear business casual clothing to an interview for a non-professional job or startup casual garb to an interview at a small startup company - it's important look well-dressed and put together, no matter what the company.

Arriving Late

Next on the list, is something you would think would be a no-brainer - being on time for your interview. Everyone knows that first impressions are very important in landing a job, but did you know that you can make a bad first impression before you even arrive at your interview?

Running late not only suggests poor time management skills, but shows a lack of respect for the company, the position and even your interviewer. Go the extra length to make sure that you aren't late, and arrive on time, or even early. Budget your time so that you make it to the interview five to ten minutes early. That way, if something unforeseen comes up on your way over to your interview, you'll have some cushion time.

Bringing a Drink With You

Ditch the coffee or soda before you enter your interview. If you need to fuel up, do it before you get to the interview.

Not only is it unprofessional to enter with a drink in hand, but during your interview, you should be focused on the task at hand: making a good impression, answering questions, maintaining eye contact with your potential employer, and paying attention throughout the entire interviewing process.

Having a drink in front of you creates the opportunity for distraction - fiddling with the cup, or missing a question while taking a sip, for example. And although it may be a relatively unlikely possibility, bringing a drink into your interview also gives way to other unsightly accidents - like spilling the drink on the desk, on you, or even your interviewer!


Using Your Phone During the Interview

Don't forget to turn off your phone before you head into the interview.

Before you get to your interview, silence your phone. Texting during your interview is not only rude and disruptive, but it's a pretty clear message to your potential employer that getting the job is not your top priority. For the same reasons, don't answer calls (and certainly don't make calls!) during the interview. To resist the temptation to check your phone, stow your phone in your bag before the interview.

Don't let your potential employer stump you with the question, "What do you know about this company?"

Not Knowing Anything About the Company

It's one of the easiest questions to ace, if only you do some research before your interview.

Background information including company history, locations, divisions, and a mission statement are available in an "About Us" section on most company websites. Review it ahead of time, then print it out and read it over just before your interview to refresh your memory. Also check the company's LinkedIn page and Facebook page, if they have one.......Read complete article at: http://blog.cvwizards.com.ng/?p=353

“The true measure of a career is to be able to be content, even proud, that you succeeded through your own endeavors without leaving a trail of casualties in your wake.” – Alan Greenspan

Let’s assume that you’ve done your strategic networking, gotten some names and numbers, leveraged recruiters, and gotten referred to the right people in the right places. Now it’s time to learn some important details about the interviewing process.

What follows is an outline of the different types of interviews, how they work, and what you can expect during each of these interview situations. At some companies, you will actually be taken through all these interview steps before a hiring decision will be made. In other cases, you may bypass some of the intermediary stages.

Types of Interviews
Informational: No specific job under discussion. Purpose is learning about industry, company, people, skills required, cultural fit – and perhaps gathering additional research or generating more people to contact.

Screening: Used as the first step to narrow the field of candidates who are being considered for employment. Screening may be done by an outside recruiter or in-house Human Resource person. Usually done over the phone.

Hiring Manager: Usually conducted by the individual for whom you would be working, this type of interview provides an in-depth look at an applicant to confirm desired requirements and/or technical abilities, motivation, and overall personal and cultural “fit” with the organization......Read complete article at: http://blog.cvwizards.com.ng/?p=349

Did you find the story inspiring?

During my undergraduate years, I had plans concerning the kind of job I would do after graduation. As I drew closer to my graduation date, the dream of becoming a graduate was all I thought of. I lived in a state of euphoria, because I felt that I would never have to read anymore once I was done with my degree exams. Little did I know that life outside the walls of the university is more demanding, tasking and challenging and it is only the tough (sometimes smart) ones that will survive it. But experience has thought me that self development is a continuous process.

After I graduated, it was time for the mandatory National Youth Service Corps (NYSC). I was posted to Lagos State which was what i wanted and also a dream come through considering the incessant pandemonium in the northern part of the country at that time. But the plans of being posted to multinationals (which was the main reason I came to Lagos State) was thwarted when i collected my posting letter and saw that my place of primary assignment (PPA) is a school.

For a couple of days, I was in a dilemma and also in shock. However, after much deliberation I mustered courage and strength just to make something good out of the seemingly bad situation. I carried out my.........Read complete story at: http://blog.cvwizards.com.ng/?p=343

madridfc:
True talk

Thanks for being sincere.

Post your comments here.

Provided below are the 10 most common reasons for recruiters to reject applicants during the interview. I have also added some thoughts on how to avoid these common pitfalls.

1. Unfamiliar with CV.

Amazingly, some applicants are surprised by a question that the interviewer asks regarding information on their CV. An applicant may have forgotten that a particular statement was on their CV. This is very embarrassing and not very impressive.

Corrective action: Know your CV thoroughly and be able to defend every statement made on it.

2. Poor academic record.

It’s too late to change your grades now. Be prepared for questions on your grades and have a well-thought out response. One-half of engineers, lawyers, teachers and accountants graduated in the bottom half of their classes. The GPA is not a true measure of what you learned nor is it an indicator of how intelligent you are.

Corrective action: Throughout the entire interview, demonstrate your knowledge so you appear “smarter” than your GPA might indicate. But don’t overdo it. Remember to be yourself.

3. Insufficient knowledge of industry.

Employers vary here on what to expect. In financial services, this is extremely important. In most other industries, the importance diminishes. It is always important to remember that you want to impress the interviewer more than the other applicants.

Corrective action: Research the company, the industry, competitors, and industry trends. Keep in mind, it is important to know the future of the industry regarding its growth, international competition and profitability, just to name a few factors. Information on the industry is very easy to find on the Internet. Invest 2-3 hours and you will appear much more impressive and confident in the interview.

4. Lack of leadership skills.

Employers do differ on the requirement for leadership depending on the job that is being filled. One thing is for certain— previous leadership always makes the applicant more valuable.

Corrective action: Explain in the interview how you demonstrated leadership in a job, club, organization, volunteer organization, class project or study team. Employers want to hire future leaders, so most will look for past leadership.

5. Lack of career focus.

This interview misstep results from the applicant’s inability to demonstrate how the open position is of interest, or more importantly, how this job fits into their career plan for the next 10 years. In other words, there is a lack of career planning.

Corrective action: The applicant needs to do more research on the position and the related career paths. Discussions with alumni or others who do this job will be helpful in making the decision to pursue this line of work and will make you more informed. The Internet again is a source of information on specific careers........ See remaining 5 at: http://blog.cvwizards.com.ng/?p=333

"Doing nothing gets you nothing." - Sean Reichle

Did you find the post helpful?

We are in trouble. May God deliver us.

Did you find the article helpful? Kindly comment below.

The saying that failure to plan is planning to fail applies to every human endeavor, including job interviews. Most people fail job interviews not because they are not intelligent enough, but because of inadequate preparation or lack of preparation.

Even if your interview is tomorrow, you have nothing to worry about. Implementing the tips on this article will take you less than four hours. So you still have plenty of time to prepare and pass even the most difficult interview.

We’ll be covering very important issues such as matching your experience and qualification to the job, researching the company, practicing interviewing, getting your interview clothes ready, putting together your interview items, practicing interview etiquette and finally, getting direction.

1. Match your experience and qualification to the job.

Go back to the job advert. Review the job description on it and make sure you understand the role properly. Then try to match your experience and qualification to the job. You need not to have handled the exact role for which you’re interviewing. A good way to start is to list out all the tasks you’ve performed in the past, paid or unpaid that relate to the job.

2. Research the company.

It’s common for interviewers to ask questions like, “What do you know about this organization?” or “What’s our mission statement?” or “What are we into?” Therefore, it’s absolutely important to do some research on the organization and find out as much as you can before the interview.

As soon as you're invited for an interview, it is expected of you to find out as much information you can about the company. Find out where they have been and where they are going. What are the current issues facing the company and who are the major players (The Founders/ Owners), when was the company established, what services or goods do they produce, where is their head office, branches located, what is their mission statement, vision? You’ll find most of the answers on the company’s website. Failure to research the company could cost you the job.

3. Practice interviewing.

This section is very important. Don’t get me wrong. Other parts of this article are equally important too, but this is the main thing you’ll be doing at the interview so we can’t emphasize its importance enough.

Interviewers like examiners tend to repeat questions. So if you have friends or relatives who have interviewed with the company, ask them for likely questions to expect. If not, I believe you have access to the internet. You can use google or any of the popular search engines to search for interview questions. It will do you a lot of good to restrict your search to the position you’re interviewing for. For instance, if the position is a marketing one, You can search for “Interview questions for marketers”

Now that you’ve gotten the interview questions, try to answer them in your own words. It’s not advisable you memorize the answers you find on the internet. Since you are not the originator, it may be impossible for you to reproduce them exactly the way they appear. Even if you are able to reproduce them, it’ll sound like a ...........Read complete article at: http://blog.cvwizards.com.ng/?p=327

Answer: Firstly, this is an obvious weakness. Weakness mean risk to an employer and they are looking for re-assurance that you will adapt to the new environment.

Relate your previous experience to similar situations where you moved departments and had a new role or were faced with new technology which you had to learn quickly. Turn this into a positive about "how you are able to adapt to changing circumstances and have a flexible approach. How you pick up new skills quickly. How you enjoy the challenge of the ever changing technology."

Try to broaden the answer by saying "we are all faced with a fast moving and changing environment which constantly presents new challenges. I have always been able to rise to these and perform effectively despite tight deadlines and little support."

Importantly, then go on to list examples of similar experiences where you have demonstrated such skills. This should close the issue in the interviewers mind and paint a positive picture.

“Successful business people don't get ahead by wishing they had someone else's job title, corner office, company car or market share. They get ahead the mundane way, by doing more and doing it better. Envy is a monster with a gluttonous appetite. And it's never satisfied. Pursue your goals, not someone else's goals.” – James Dale

9. village missiles. only God can deliver the person thru prayer.

It's not as if they don't exist, but we don't have to attribute every evil that befalls us to spiritual manipulation. Take for instance. I know and you know too that majority of us did not pass UME and SSCE without help. Some of us had to cheat to make 2:1. If we are unable to secure a job due to our inability to defend our certificates, we blame it on witchcraft.

1. Your CV is not effective
If you're not getting invitations for interviews, then you need to have a second look at your CV. Since you do not get to meet the employer in person before the interview, your CV should be packaged in such a way that the employer will be convinced beyond every doubt that you can get the job done. It must therefore highlight your skills, qualification and experience. It should also be properly formatted and error-free. Your CV is your best marketing tool so put in your time and efforts to make it look the best it possibly can.

2. You interview poorly
You may be surprised to hear that some individuals chewing gums at interviws. That does not show good manners. Some other reasons that could make you fail an interview is arriving late to the venue, poor dressing, arguing with the interviewer and telling lies.

3. You have a bad attitude
Most people think employers are only interested in an applicant’s skills and qualification. That’s not true. Attitude is equally important. Will You recruit a person with excellent skills, qualification, knowledge and experience but lacks the right attitude? I guess your answer is NO.

If you're rude or have a repugnant attitude, you may not be able to hide it from the interviewer. Don't forget that some people being an interviewer or not, have the ability to see beyond your fancy suit to your real person.


4. You can't communicate effectively
Most applicants stay longer than necessary in the labor market simply because they lack the requisite verbal and written communication skills employers are looking for. Evaluate yourself. If that’s where your problem lies, it’s never too late for a turn around. The best way to become fluent in your communication is to practice. Read as much novels and watch as much English films as you can. Take note of unusual words and check up the correct pronunciation, usage and spellings in the dictionary, and use them often as appropriate. Avoid pidgin English.

5. You are not networking enough
If you keep waiting for companies to place job adverts before you apply, you may be limiting your chances. Almost all jobs these days are found through networking, both offline and online. The contact need not be your relatives. Relatives and friends of your friends can be very helpful too.

6. You don't follow instructions
Every job advert comes with its own set of instructions, which may lead to outright disqualification if not adhered to. Some people naturally do not have eyes for details which make them recurring culprits. You should never be in a hurry to submit your CV. Take some time to read the job advert at least 3 times for you to understand the requirements. Follow the instructions strictly, to avoid being disqualified.

7. You're a chain smoker
A lot of employers won't hire smokers. The smell on their clothes and breath is a turn-off. They fall seek too often and take excessive breaks which affect productivity. And to be frank, it's a very dirty habit. Quit smoking now before it ruins you.

8. You can't defend your certificate
It's a common trend these days to see graduates who cannot prove themselves to be the real owners of their certificates. You may be surprised to hear this. A friend of mine who is an accounting graduate lost a job opportunity because he couldn’t define accounting in an interview. You must know your discipline and the definition of every basic concept regarding it to avoid making the same mistake.

Try and rectify all these issues and then ask for God’s direction and favor in your job search. There’s nothing impossible with him. A lot of people have secured good jobs miraculously. It can happen to you too. Only if you believe.

Il post mine when there is another incentive.

That's okay.

#1 – EGO

• Loss of self-esteem, identity, self-worth, and self-concept
• Embarrassment, shame, and “tarnished” image
• Loss of control; feeling “out of control”
• Used to making BIG decisions and having MAJOR impact

SOLUTIONS:

• Keep your “usual life” going (family activities, volunteer, sports, hobbies, etc.)
• Develop/recognize your worth OUTSIDE of the job
• Be open to learning new things and taking small risks
• Recognize the value and power of “baby steps” (doing the right things over and over)
• Ask for support!

#2 – NO RESOURCES/SUPPORT/INFRASTRUCTURE

• Not accustomed to doing all the day-to-day administrative tasks yourself
• Lack some basic habits for details and logistics; organization of tasks, etc.
• Technology impaired
• Must think of everything/burdened with time-consuming planning and activities that used to be handled by support personnel

SOLUTIONS:

• Get over it and get busy
• Learn new behaviors and technical skills
• Leverage technology and basic organizational tools
• Respect and value the small tasks that support the whole process
• Possibly hire someone to assist part-time, or get a volunteer to help with some tasks (friend, family member, etc.)

#3 – HIGH-END JOBS HARD TO FIND OR TO DUPLICATE

• Search takes longer, and frustration can be greater
• Simply less opportunities at this level; sometimes only one or two appropriate positions open in the entire country

SOLUTIONS:

• Expand your scope, consider being more flexible, and possibly relocate
• Consider taking a short-term step back in order to eventually move ahead
• Explore consulting or starting/buying a business
• Be more creative in developing your Target Company List and personal marketing plan

#4 – MAINTAINING HIGH COMPENSATION

• Difficult at all times, but especially tough in a bad economy
• May be a threat to other senior employees

SOLUTIONS:

• Be prepared (job-seekers’ toolkit!)
• Be sure you talk to the right people, i.e., the ultimate decision makers
• Research the target company and talk to contacts for compensation information
• Collect data on actual salary ranges for the type of position you are seeking (salary web sites, industry journals, directories, etc.)
• Do financial planning, including diversifying and developing other income streams
• Seek flexible financial arrangements, such as an equity position, bonus income, or employment contract with bigger upside
• Assume a “partnering” attitude rather than a “take control” attitude
• Be realistic about what you NEED vs. what you WANT
• Downshift your lifestyle to take the pressure off

#5 – REACHING THE APPROPRIATE CONTACTS

• Higher barrier of entry; difficult to get through senior executives’ gatekeepers
• Human Resources is of little or no help

SOLUTIONS:

• Join and participate in executive networking programs, boards of directors, and venture capital groups
• Leverage relationships with search firms and other career contacts
• Use your senior-level references and referrals
• Focus on solutions and the added value you offer
• Call-in favors and get help from senior-level friends and colleagues
• Talk to hiring managers about ways you can help them reach THEIR business goals; positions are often created at this level
• Develop a “Proposal for Service” and quantify the real value of your contributions.......Read complete article at: http://blog.cvwizards.com.ng/?p=309

Good morning friends,

Two days ago, We promised to give away N10,000 MTN recharge card (N1,000 to ten fans). We received only five entries. Out of these five, only one was selected for publication and the writer has been rewarded accordingly. The other four write-ups were poorly presented and contain a lot of grammatical errors. Being very busy people, we wouldn’t have the time to start correcting errors and restructuring the articles. We are left with no other choice but to reject them.

It’s a shame that our so-called University and Polytechnic graduates cannot write an error-free English sentence. It’s indeed a big shame.

“Many of life's failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.” – Thomas A. Edison

“I never dreamed about success. I worked for it.” – Estee Lauder

“Achievement is largely the product of steadily raising one’s levels of aspirations and expectation.” – Jack Nicklaus

On July 2, 2010, CNNMoney.com ran an interesting article about older job candidates. It stated that “Companies are starting to hire again, but many are turning their backs on older job seekers.” The piece went on to say, “The nationwide unemployment rate for older workers – while lower than that of younger workers – has barely moved since hitting a record high of 7.2% in December of 2009. This rate is currently 7.1%.”

Here at CV Wizards, we work with many senior executives who would be considered “mature workers.” When it comes to age discrimination, these older job seekers have more control and recourse than they may think.

You can’t change your chronological age, so don’t waste mental energy thinking about it. But here are four practical strategies that can dramatically increase your chances of landing a great job at any age:

1. Energy level. Even if you’re a mature worker, it’s important to maintain a high level of energy and project real vitality. This allows you to take-on challenging projects, keep-up with the fast pace of business, and get things done quickly. So show-up early, move fast throughout the day, and work hard. It’s essential to get enough sleep, eat a healthy diet and exercise regularly.

2. Technology skills. As an older candidate, you didn’t grow-up in the computer age. But it’s critical that you learn and practice technical skills. Get over your technophobia! Employers are much more likely to hire mature workers who can demonstrate strong computer skills and a comfort level with technology in general. This is a great way to compete effectively with younger candidates.....Read complete atricle at: http://blog.cvwizards.com.ng/?p=297

If you feel like you've looked at every job posting in Nigeria and you still can't find one that match your skills, then it's time to get some new skills.The good news for those who are unemployed is that it's the perfect opportunity to go back to school. You won't have to divide your time with your job obligations, and there's also the possibility that the economy will have recovered a bit by the time you graduate from school (again)-giving you a double leg up. There are even government funding, scholarships and programs available for you. Just search well.

Skills refer to the things you do well. The key to finding the most appropriate jobs in the industry is recognizing your own skills and communicating the significance written and verbally to a probable employer.

The majority of skills are those that are used in a variety of work settings.What are these skills? Would matching your skills to find the right job be successful?

To-Do-List

What skills can I offer an employer? If you're unsure of the answer, make one list of the job skills you excel at and one of the skills you like to use most. Print out these lists and have them in front of you during your daily job search. Use these skills as search terms in yourjob search.

Make a list of things you are interested in. Then you can make a note of all the job openings in that field. Assess each job you find and see what works for you.

Make a list of your previous jobs and experience acquired in each job. There will be a lot of things to list and you should be careful not to forget even the smallest things or activities that you were part of.

Include any volunteer, part-time, freelance, summer and full time jobs in your lists. Once you have listed all your past employment, examine the skills you were required to perform for each work duty.

Make a list of your hobbies. These include all of your hobbies, activities you have been involved in the past, and all the things that interest you. By listing all of these down, you could examine the skills it takes to achieve each item..... Read complete article at: http://blog.cvwizards.com.ng/?p=285
