Share Your Job Interview Experience

Job interviews are different for each of us. The success of a job interview isn't always dependent upon your skills or how well you dress. Sometimes it just depends upon how well you get along with the person interviewing you.

Have you ever been to an interview when everything seemed to go wrong? Did you ever watch someone crash and burn in an interview (or even before the interview started)?

We'd like to hear your stories.

Share your job interview experiences - good and bad.

An Interview Tidbit

When interviewing, it is important to reflect your responsibilities in ways that allow the employer to create a mental picture about what you are capable of doing.

This is done by telling stories, or anecdotes. Stories show the employer what you are capable of doing rather than just telling them.

Look at this situation:
The interviewer asks the same question of candidates #1, #2 and #3: "Have you ever been in a situation when you have had to soothe an employee who felt as though he’d been treated unjustly by a co-worker?"


Candidate #1 responds: "Well, I remember doing that once, but it was a nightmare."

Candidate #2 responds: "Yes, I listened considerately until he finished venting."

Candidate #3 responds: "Yes, I have been in that situation before. In fact, not long ago, a co-worker in an office next to mine was angry that her boss was asking her to stay late 3 days in a row. I asked her to come to my office for some coffee and we worked out a way for the two of us to share the work load so that we both could get home at a decent hour."
