Are you getting interviews, but no offers? You could have the best resume, but it won’t matter if you don’t know how to interview. A person who does not interview well will not receive a job offer.
This week you have the opportunity to improve your interview skills by listening to an expert. I will be visiting with Lisa Johnson who is currently a Senior Recruiter and has worked as a Corporate Recruiter and Branch Manager for a number of prominent employers in Tulsa during the past fifteen years. Lisa’s expertise is in recruiting which involves identifying top talent, interviewing, resume critique, and coaching on interviewing skills and a professional presentation. She also volunteers as a speaker and facilitator for two job search ministries and at Dress for Success.
What are some of the unprofessional actions candidates make that eliminate them from consideration? How do you remove these actions in order to be considered? What are five things you can do that will set you apart from other candidates? Why is an interview a two way street? And, what are the best questions for you to ask?
