Sie bereiten sich auf Ihr nächstes Vorstellungsgespräch vor. Welche Werkzeuge sollten Sie haben?

- For preparation, You should be able to elaborate everything in your resume and the role description Following must have tools Polished resume emphasizing relevant experience. Well-crafted cover letter expressing enthusiasm List of thoughtful questions about the role Multiple hard copies of your resume(yes) Notepad and professional pen Familiarity with company background and recent news Appropriate dress, strong eye contact, confident body language Positive attitude highlighting skills and accomplishments Firm handshake for a strong first impression Sincere thank-you email post-interview for a lasting impact.

What you should have is a viable solution to the company's problems. Be realistic. The only reason the company is interviewing you is to check whether or not you can help it get to where it wants to be. As long as you can corroborate your claims with evidence and showcase your skills, the purpose will be served.

Your resume is indeed one of the most important documents to have updated. Besides the details, facts and information, you should make sure it reflects who you are; your career path, your strengths and weaknesses, and your professional profile. Working on your resume can be an extremely empowering experience- helping you articulate who you are and what you have done over the course of your career.

I always recommend that the job seeker does a bit of research about the hiring manager (not recruiter) and his / her career path. This will help understand what is needed be successful in the type of role.

Your resume will make you or break you. Spell check it, make sure there are no grammatical errors - have at least one other person look over it for you to make sure those t's are crossed and i's are dotted! Use bullets that not only tell what you've done but the impact of the action...for every bullet try to answer the question, 'So what?'. There is where your value will be showcased. To the baby boomers, no one cares what you did 10+ years ago so keep it to the last 10 years. If what you did 15 years is relevant to the job your applying to, list it, date it but don't go into all the details - again short bullets is all you need for those at most!

Ao buscar oportunidades em campos criativos ou técnicos, como design, redação ou desenvolvimento, considere exibir seu talento através de um portfólio. Este é um compilado dos seus projetos mais destacados, mostrando seu estilo, habilidades e conquistas. Construa um portfólio digital, usando sites ou plataformas, e compartilhe o link durante a entrevista. Para apresentações mais tangíveis, tenha uma versão física ou um pen drive contendo seus trabalhos à disposição. Não apenas conta sua história profissional, mas permite que suas realizações brilhem, destacando que você vai além das palavras ao demonstrar suas habilidades. Isso certamente impressionará seus entrevistadores!

Pour montrer vos "hard skills" il faut être pragmatique : - un site internet, - un portfolio, - des réalisations par photos... - des certificats, des diplômes, des trophées... - une vidéo peut aussi vous permettre de mettre en avant vos "soft skills" en plus.

Sometimes your work expresses your real talent better than words, so it’s important to always have your sample prepared if asked, or presented to assist your answers

Le portfolio est un bon outil dans le cadre d'une recherche d'un poste qui peut permettre l'utilisation de cet outil. Site web personnel, ArtStation, montrez vos talents artistiques en intégrant sur votre CV les liens pour visiter vos sites et vos créations.

In kreativen Tätigkeitsfeldern sind Arbeitsproben eine gute Möglichkeit das eigene Können zu zeigen. Das hilft oft mehr als1000 Worte. In technischen Bereichen ist ein Bezug zu erfolgreich durchgeführten Projekten oder Auftragsvolumen bzw Steigerung des Outcome hilfreich.

Use specific examples to emphasize your key skills by including the assessment of customers, superiors, colleague: "My former boss appreciated my attention to detail. Not once were there any errors in content or form in the marketing material I was responsible for." "A customer thanked me personally for my extra efforts when their production plant threatened to break down over the holidays. Thanks to my swift action, a standstill was averted and downtime and therefore costs were prevented." Prepare numerous examples at home so that you can confidently choose the most suitable ones. You will not only go into the interview well prepared, but also with increased self-confidence because you will realize what you have already achieved.

O caminho mais rápido para encontrar um emprego é sendo lembrado por tomadores de decisão ou membros importantes de um time. Trabalhar o networking precisa estar no plano e é tão importante quanto ter um currículo atualizado ou realizar treinamentos frequentes!

Uma sugestão é selecionar pessoas específicas para solicitar recomendações, como colegas de trabalho, supervisores ou clientes novos ou antigos, o que aumenta a relevância das recomendações recebidas. Além disso, as recomendações no LinkedIn são visíveis para qualquer pessoa que visite o seu perfil, o que acrescenta credibilidade ao seu histórico profissional. Vale ressaltar que, ao solicitar recomendações, é importante ser claro sobre o motivo e demonstrar gratidão pela colaboração dos contatos. Essa prática pode ser muito valiosa para fortalecer sua marca pessoal e aumentar suas chances de sucesso profissional.

Ao construir sua reputação profissional, considere agregar valor ao seu currículo com referências e depoimentos de antigos empregadores, clientes ou colegas. Referências são indivíduos que podem validar seu desempenho, caráter e conquistas, prontos para serem contatados pelos entrevistadores. Já os depoimentos são elogios positivos de empregadores, clientes ou colegas, destacando seu impacto positivo. Com cuidado, escolha referências confiáveis e depoimentos relevantes, solicitando permissão antes de compartilhar informações de contato. Esses testemunhos tangíveis não apenas validam suas habilidades, mas também constróem confiança, evidenciando sua credibilidade e impacto positivo ao longo da carreira.

It’s like I am proud of what I did and achieved, I have nothing to hide, please go through my references Testimony could give you a little push ahead of other to job offer

Research the company. Show that you are interested in both this position and this company. Be able to talk about everything on your resume and the job posting , with specific stories and examples that are relevant to THIS EXACT position. Use the STAR method. PRACTICE! Ask meaningful questions. A great question to ask is, “what would you like me to accomplish in the first 90 days.” And at the end... ASK for the job. Here's your dialogue: "I am very interested in this position. Can you please tell me what the next steps are."

1) Have an understanding of the company’s history, as well as strategic level goals moving forward. 2) Read, digest, and understand the company’s mission statement and core values. 3) Understand the requisition and be prepared to discuss how your professional experience aligns with the position.

When preparing for the interview, think about the competencies that might be needed for the job. For instance, does the job require leadership skills, problem solving or conflict resolution skills? Depending on the job and the possible competencies, think about your "STAR" stories that support those competencies. If possible, have at least 2-3 stories per competency that you can address. Using the same story more than once on an interview doesn't demonstrate the depth that might be needed for the job.

Research the company and the job that you are interviewing for. Have a list of questions about the future of the company and the role. Ask questions regarding goals, reviews that are conducted etc. Even if you have applied for a multitude of jobs, make sure you have a copy of the job description from the posting or the companies website. Asking for a copy of the job description during the interview should be avoided.

Il est important de faire des recherches sur l'entreprise et le secteur d'activité quand bien même vous n'y travaillez pas. Cela démontre votre intérêt pour le poste. Aussi les questions sur l'organisation de l'entité que vous vous apprêtez à rejoindre permettent de vous y projeter ou non.

You are the walking resume - You will never have a 2nd chance to project the best 1st impression - Personal grooming is an integral part of interview preparation. It goes hand in hand with your qualifications and experience to create a lasting first impression. - By paying attention to your attire, grooming, and overall presentation, you can convey professionalism, confidence, and respect for the opportunity at hand. - Wear quality and minimal accessories that are non distracting and doesn’t make noise when you move or make gestures in interviews So, before your next job interview, take the time to groom, dress appropriately, and exude confidence - it may be the key to your interview success.

I am assuming that you have noted how people present for work here, and this sits with who you are. So, be yourself. As an interviewer, I appreciate seeing your work style plus a recognition that this is an interview. I want you to feel comfortable (no brand new clothes that you don't yet trust) and also respectful of the interview by your attention to grooming. Do you have a signature item? eg. a piece of jewellery, a pen, a tech item that helps me to appreciate who you are.

Bei online Interviews ist es gut vorher die technische Ausstattung zu prüfen und auch einen geeigneten Hintergrund zu wählen. Die Lichtverhältnisse sollten gut sein und nicht blenden. Bedenken Sie, dass Sie nur 0,2 ms Zeit für einen ersten Eindruck haben. Da ist es gut, wenn Sie sich vorher eine "subline" für das Gespräch überlegen, die Sie dann im Gespräch on- oder offline ausstrahlen.

Wear something that you feel good in and that leaves you feeling your most confident professional self. If you feel good you’ll do better!

You are better off being too formal than too casual for a job interview. If you’re unsure, wear a suit or at least a blazer.

Confidence is the tool you need most. And it’s something you need to build well before the interview stage. How to build your confidence? Start a “love me” file on your phone or desktop. In it, you’ll curate kudos, thank you notes and emails supporting a job well done. It might include performance reviews, hallway conversations of appreciation and “Wow, I wish I could do X like you, Name!” As you build your “love me” file you are acknowledging and bringing awareness to your work and what others see and value in you. Return to this file often; especially as you’re preparing for an interview. Let it remind you of all the ways others have appreciated the meaningful work you do. Let it remind you, you’re a great hire!

Durig the interview one must focus on as what value one can bring into the organization and the team. What makes one different from the other candidates and never be shy of sharing the achievements (even small ones and other than work) with the interviewers. Be confident but not overconfident. Be prepared and relax.

Smile You should always know that you are being interviewed by real people. Like real human beings. So remember to smile while you are at it. Well, I am not suggesting that you smile throughout the interview lest they see you as a joker. A little smile while talking will go a long way. In my experience, I have realized that a smile is always a good way to lighten up the environment in the room and it also helps you express yourself with confidence. A smile also gives the impression that you are relatable and approachable. Which is a win if ask me. I mean, who doesn't want to employ someone who is approachable? Just find the right time within the interview to smile.

Don’t forget to know where/how you’re having the interview. If in person, look at a map and time your arrival to be there in advance (driving? Where will you park? Transit? What’s the nearest stop?). If virtual, ensure your platform is properly set up with a professional background (no messy beds in the background - blur the screen). Let any housemates know you’ll be in an interview so they are quiet or stay away. And if in person, pack a TideToGo…just in case…

Be yourself and be present. Nothing more is needed. No facade no gimmicks will help. If you are genuine you will get it else it’s not meant for you.
