Telephone Interview Tips To Land Your Dream Job

Telephone interview tips can help you land your dream job. How? The amount of telephone job interviews conducted by employers has dramatically risen over the past five years and the trend shows no signs of slowing. This is mainly due to the fact that employers are searching for ideal candidates who live out of town, not just those who live locally. Chances are that you may have to "attend" a telephone interview. When you do, these tips will help you out.

Keep in mind that an interview conducted over the phone is just as important as one conducted in an office. You need to prepare for your interview just as you would any other interview. Review questions and practice your answers in front of a mirror or with a friend. Make a list of questions you want to ask. You might also want to study up on the employer you are interviewing with.

Always keep your resume and the classified job ad in front of you during the interview. This will keep vital information within reach. Avoid preparing a pile of documents. If you have a stack of papers in front of you, you will be tempted to browse through papers which will create a noisy distraction during your interview. It will be very difficult extracting information from a huge pile anyway. The key is to keep it simple.

If at all possible, use a home phone line for the interview. Cell phones can be unreliable. A home phone is both more reliable and free of static. Set aside time for the interview. Make sure you are in a quiet place and that will allow you plenty of time to talk. Your interviewer may request to conduct the interview through a video conferencing system on the computer. This is fine, but there could be technical difficulties if you don't make sure you are up and running ahead of time.

Make sure you set aside plenty of time for your interview. You never want to abruptly halt an interview or disrupt it in any way. One of the best telephone interview tips that you can follow involves getting into an ideal frame of mind before the interview. Schedule time before the interview to relax. Take steps to limit disruptions. Take the call in a private room located away from kids, animals and other potential distractions.

Try to speak up and pronounce your words clearly. Remember; the quality of your voice is your first and only impression. Speak passionately, but avoid becoming too animated or excited. This could make it difficult for the interviewer to understand you.

Another great tip is to dress for a telephone interview just as you would in an in-office interview. While no one will actually see you, you will feel more professional and your voice will convey this.

Telephone interview tips will only help you if you have time to prepare beforehand. If an employer cold calls you and asks to do an interview on the spot, politely ask if you can call back at a better time. Always give a time when you will call back.

Job Interviewing: Ten Tips for Success!

Whether this job interview is your first or your 51st, it never hurts to brush up on your skills and do some advance prep work to ensure success. Learn how to play up your key strengths, minimize your weaknesses, and make a great impression overall. Here are ten tips from my arsenal of career advice.

1. Relax, you'll be more authentic and confident if you do.

The best suggestion I can give before an interview is to just relax. Easier said than done, right? It helps to remember that you have education, training, and experience working in your favor. Think of all the ways you provided value to your past employer. Did you land a huge account? Go above and beyond on a certain project? Take a deep breath, recall your accomplishments, and let go of the tension. Know that you're worthy... and who knows. Maybe you're even overqualified for the position!

2. Remember, you're interviewing them, too.

So many people view the job interview as a test - and they'd better pass with flying colors or they're in trouble! On some level, yes, you're being tested - but the "test" is simply to see if you're a good match for the company. It works the other way, too. This is your chance to see if theirs is the kind of corporate culture that fits your style. It's possible that you'll get there and find out you don't even want the job! Or, you might figure out that it's only worth it if they meet you at a certain salary amount. Ask lots of questions... know what you're getting into, and then weigh your options carefully.

3. Be prepared, know the company.

You'll notice that many companies not only have a specific "personality," but they're mighty proud of the little perks and quirks that make them unique. Do they have their own brand of soda, like Microsoft? Do they offer Flex Time for working parents? Find out if they're noteworthy in the news. Visit their company website and do your online research. Were they part of a recent merger? There is no better way to show your sincere interest than actually being interested. You might learn something really cool about this company that tells you, "Go for it!" Or, you could uncover some hidden dirt that makes you think twice before working there.

4. Take the pressure off... you have options!

Think of the job interview as an opportunity to cast seeds and check things out. This is a "get to know you" or feeling out phase, not a contest or do-or-die situation. Try to avoid becoming too attached to any one job. That old saying, "Don't put all your eggs in one basket" could not be more true than for the career search. Sometimes things take an unexpected twist or turn. You could be "90% sure" that you'll be on Company X's payroll next month... and suddenly the phone rings with an even better offer.

5. If they ask about your weaknesses, answer honestly.

Each person excels in some areas more than they do in others. If you are honest, you stand a better chance of being placed in the best possible career for you. So when the question about weaknesses comes up, tell the truth. Just be sure to spin it in a solution-oriented way that tells the interviewer you know how to overcome and manage such challenges. For example, if you're not detail-oriented, you could say so - but also add that you always give yourself extra time on projects that involve lots of detail. Or, you could say that you make a great "big picture partner and strategist" when paired with someone for whom little details are their strong suit.

6. Write a list of five key points you plan to express in your interview.

You're almost certain to feel more confident and at-ease if you prepare for your interview in advance. One way to do this is to make a list of your best qualities and accomplishments - what you bring to the table. On the day of the interview, two things can potentially happen. One, the interviewer will ask you specific questions where you can simply "slant" your responses around the points you planned to mention. Or, two, you'll end up talking about other things - but when the time comes that they ask for your questions or thoughts, use this opportunity to make your points.

7. Write a list of questions, things you need to know.

Sometimes when the pressure's on, it's hard to know what to ask. But do take some time to consider what's most important to you in your career and the company where you'll be spending the majority of your time. A good way to remember "what you want to know," is to flash back to the last job you had. Let's say you didn't care for the way you had four different managers to report to. On interview day, you can ask: "Who will I be reporting to and what's the general workflow for the department?" Asking good questions is a great way to find out if this new company offers similar perks as you had before - and if they'll fill the gaps where your old company fell short.

8. Find out who you are interviewing with.

If you know that you will be speaking to the head of Human Resources, keep in mind that you'll be asked more general questions. In this case, be prepared to talk about your career history and background as well as your personality, work style and unique qualities. If you have certain items that you'd like addressed, such as day-to-day responsibilities and what the positions demands of you, know that these questions are better left for your potential boss or the head of the department where you'll be working.

9. Do a quick mini-visualization beforehand.

Professional athletes do it - you can, too. Picture how you want the interview to go and the ideal outcome. Set your intentions. "I am going to show these people exactly why I'm more qualified than any of the other candidates who apply. I will do this by pointing out my accomplishments and core strengths, which are: X, Y, Z." Imagine that at the close of the interview, you're smiling, shaking hands with the hiring manager, and feeling on top of the world - like you really nailed it! Envision getting a callback from them that clearly indicates how impressed they were with your professionalism and capabilities.

10. Dress the part.

Look professional and wear something that shows your personality as well, depending on the type of job. Consider the environment. For example, many jobs where employees meet with clients and vendors require the gold standard suit and tie/skirt and blazer. Other places have changed with the times, and now offer "dress down fridays" or adopt "corporate casual" which means khakis for guys, and skirts or nice pants for the ladies. So If it's formal, be a little more formal. If it's not, tone it down and be casual yet crisp and neat. Look put together, cleaned up. Add a bit of personal style - maybe a favorite gold watch or silk scarf. Try to conceal things like unusual piercings or body art - unless of course, you work in an artistic field and that's the expected look.

Chances are after reading this, you're already feeling more confident about your professional abilities. Don't lose the momentum - go grab a pen and paper right now and begin to formulate your strategy for interview success. Go into this feeling proud of your many accomplishments. Know that even if it doesn't turn out to be the job of your dreams, that's okay. The career search is an ongoing process and learning experience. You're one step closer to landing the job you've always wished for!

Tittle’s Top Ten: How to Wow ‘Em at a Job Interview During an Economic Downturn

Layoffs and fewer job opportunities have made the Washington job scene a buyer’s market; there is a glut of good candidates. Relax, with all of the layoffs, if you are out there looking, you’re probably one of them. As always, though, landing a good job means going through the dreaded job interview. Some of them are friendly. Others are meat grinders. In any case, here are ten tips for wowing ‘em and making them want to call you for a return visit.

1. Research, research, research. Know the company cold. Find out what its pain points are and be ready to explain how you can help ease them.

2. Be on time. Arrive 10 minutes early so you won’t be huffing and puffing into the office at the appointed hour.

3. People are human. Most of them will decide within the first five minutes whether they want to hire you. Be yourself -- but not the same YOU that your wacky beach house friends find so adorable.

4. Demonstrate a sense of humor, but don’t do 20 minutes of standup about your off-the-wall family. Stay focused.

5. Prepare a great, 30-second speech on your accomplishments on the job and elsewhere.

6. Listen more than you talk. There is nothing an interviewer likes better than the sound of his own voice.

7. Be ready to explain why you are leaving – or left – your last job. Don’t disparage your old manager or the company. It sounds unprofessional, -- even if your old boss has a well-earned reputation for being a horse’s ass.

8. Be honest, but don’t pour your heart out. If the interviewer asks you "What is your biggest weakness?" pause thoughtfully, and say, "I guess I set my goals very high and tend to work too many hours." It sounds better than, "I can’t even face the day until noon."

9. If you want the job, ask for it. A less-qualified, but enthusiastic candidate, will beat a more qualified, but seriously attitude-challenged candidate every time.

10. Treat the receptionist and other support people at the employer’s office with respect. If you dis them they will tell the interviewer and wreck your chances. Besides, it’s not nice.

Five Tips to Nailing Your Job Interview

If you are like most people, you probably don't particularly enjoy job interviews. Unless you are ready a job interview will certainly be among the most stressful things you'll have to do in your life. Are there any tips that'll help? Of course there are!

The five tips below, if taken to heart and acted upon, will give you an advantage over about 80% of all job applicants who do little or no preparation for the same job interview. Actually that might be the biggest tip in itself - and a theme that runs through all five tips below - PREPARATION.

The more you prepare beforehand, the more confident you'll be going in to the interview, and the more confident you'll appear during the interview.

So, without further delay, here are the five tips that'll put you ahead of the competition at your next job interview:

1. Have all of the basic facts about yourself properly rehearsed in your mind. These include education, hobbies, interests and previous work experience. Try to slant what you say about your education, your interests and the roles you've had in your jobs to date to show why you would be the ideal candidate for this job.

Reinforce your job application with real evidence of what you've done in previous jobs. Don't just give a basic one or two word description of your role - elaborate on it. Give specific descriptions of individual aspects of the work you did. Again, try to emphasize examples of tasks you performed that would make you perfect for the job you've applied for.

3. Make sure you demonstrate enthusiasm for the job you're being interviewed for. Remember, the interviewer is looking for someone they feel will be ideally suited to the role advertised. If you come across as having very little interest in the position, do you think you'll be offered it? Make sure you do your research on the company offering the job and the job role itself so that you give a good impression of your knowledge at the interview.

4. Before you get to the interview work out the kinds of skills and qualities you feel you would need to carry out the job you're applying for and think of as many good examples as you can of how you've demonstrated these in your work and private life to date.

5. Make an effort with your appearance. Remember, first impressions are the only impressions the interviewer is going to have of you, so go all out to make those first impressions count. Think about the kind of character qualities and personality qualities you think someone good at the job you've applied for would demonstrate, and try to come across at the interview as having those qualities.

Okay, there you have it... five tips that will put you ahead of most of your competition at any job interview. Be prepared, be enthused, look good, have the knowledge you need, and be confident... you will land the job of your dreams in no time!

5 Top Tips for Preparing for a Job Interview

Whether it's your first or your hundredth and whether your rate of getting the job offer after the interview is 10% or 90%, preparing for an interview is always among the most nerve-wracking of tasks. Your stress level, however, will drop when you know you are ready for the interview. The following tips will give you that confidence you need.

1. Be prepared for a few basic questions, especially the negative ones like what are your weaknesses and why do you want to leave your current job. Once you've gone to a number of interviews, you will notice that certain questions, or at least certain types of questions, get asked on a regular basis. Be prepared to sound CONFIDENT, not perfect. The impression you want to leave is that you are competent and smart, recognize your weak points, and most importantly are actively working to address problem areas.

When you’re preparing for an interview, the most important question to think about is the one about your greatest weakness. Think about this one for a while. Make sure your answer to this question will be similar to the answers your references will give. It is okay to ask them what you think your biggest weakness is, in fact!

2. Know your interviewer. This doesn't mean call him up and ask him out to coffee. It means you should call the place you're hoping to be working at soon and ask the receptionist who she thinks your boss will be in that position. If she doesn't know, you can ask for human resources and see if they will tell you. You do not have to give your name in this call, just say that you're interested in the position and would like to send a copy of your letter and resume to this person in addition to the blank box address or human resources address given in the posting. Then follow up by sending that resume to that interviewer.

Find out, if possible, what your interviewer's job is, and do a quick Google on their name to see if there has been any recent news. It's nice to be able to congratulate them if they've won an award for instance. Don't get creepy; going into Facebook to find out the name of their wife, daughter, and goldfish is too much. Keep it professional.

3. If you're not a hundred percent certain what the job entails, find out. All you have to do is pick up the phone and call, seriously. You don't even have to talk to your interviewer or prospective boss, though that's not necessarily bad. Giving them a call before you go in does a few things. First, you can be informed about the job. Second, it gives you a chance to ask about other things that seem trivial until they come up: Where do you park? Is there a guard to check in with? Anything special you should expect? I once showed up for a 7:30 interview at a building that wasn't unlocked until 8 am. The interviewer simply didn't think about this, and sat fuming when I wasn't there until she realized that I was locked out.

When you understand what the position will be, think about the company and the position. Can you project what they might want to be doing with this position? For instance, I once applied for a job teaching office skills to people moving off welfare into the workplace. Some research on this job told me that not only were they planning to continue this project, they were going to expand into the private sector and teach computer classes to local businesses. By knowing this, I was able to address their plans directly in the interview – before they asked. This let them know I was on the same page, career-wise, they were on, and I landed the job.

4. Wear comfortable shoes. No, this does not mean tennis shoes. Instead, you need to recognize that your attitude is going to be largely determined by how comfortable you feel at the interview. Too-tight pantyhose, a bra strap that slides down, shoes that pinch, pants that ride up – all these things are going to make your interview more difficult. Look good, but opt for interview clothes that don't make you aware that you're wearing clothes. This may mean that your second-best suit, or your mom's great pumps, are what you need to wear.

As you prepare for your interview remember that your personal appearance is more than just clothes-deep, and looking comfortable gives you a completely different dimension. Make sure you feel good before walking in, so you can focus on the interviewer instead of wondering if you have a blister.

5. Use positive body language at every step. Your interview starts when you drive into the parking lot. You need to be completely aware of your surroundings and the attitude you are giving off at every step from that moment forward. (Yes, this also means wash the car.) Walk inside with confidence, and be kind to the receptionist. You would be surprised how many interviewers ask her opinion of the interviewee!

The firm handshake is not optional, regardless of your sex. Instead, it is a skill to be mastered. When you're working on it, put yourself into the role of the interviewer; would you hire someone with limp hands? Over and over, interviewers state that this one aspect of a person sets the tone for the entire interview. As part of preparing for an interview, practice it with your friends, along with the friendly, confident smile, until you know you have it right.

Tips for Finding a New Job

Getting out of that dead end job may be your goal. The real question is where do you go from there. 43% of workers surveyed say they plan to pursue new employment opportunities from their current job. Here is a list of things to do and not to do when trying to find that new employment future.

Searching for Jobs
In most instances January is a peak month for job search. Get a jump on the competition. Many companies still actively hire over the holidays to gear up for the next year. Send in your resume as soon as possible.

Your Resume
Be careful not to tell your life story in your resume. That is not the place for it. Instead highlight key skills and, most important, accomplishments in bulleted points. Don't forget references.

The Cover Letter
Make yourself sound unforgettable. Begin your cover letter with a bold question or bold statement that speaks about your abilities.

Any Interviews?
Do not go into an interview bad-mouthing your previous company, supervisor or co-workers. You will most likely be pegged a whiner.

Instead be positive and imaginative. Show enthusiasm for your former job and any new job that may present yourself. Any fresh ideas may be just what get's you in the door.

Check back
Do not bother them. Enthusiasm is one thing. Desperation is another, employers can tell the difference. Check back 1 or 2 weeks later. If no decision has been made ask when would be an appropriate time to check back.

4 Preliminary Tips to Career Path Success

Maybe you've seen some layoffs at your company and "the fear factor" has you searching for alternate options and wanting more satisfaction out of your work. Perhaps you crave a more flexible work situation, one that allows you to balance home and career more effectively. Whatever your circumstance, one thing's for sure: you're unhappy or unsettled in your current job and you want to do something about it.

When you start to get the itch, it's time to make an assessment and begin to set early goals. You may wonder, am I really ready for a career transition? How can I best prepare myself for a change? But even before you delve into the components of a satisfying career, it helps immensely to cultivate a healthy and positive mental outlook. People who are successful at making a change are the ones who are willing to overcome their fears, doubts and insecurities in order to make it happen. You, too, can be one of these people…

Keep these preliminary tips in mind before forging ahead on your path to a more fulfilling and rewarding career!

1. Commit yourself to making a change.

Something that is incredibly important to any change you make in your life is your level of commitment. You have to be committed. How committed are you to finding a career that fits, on a scale from 1-10? If it’s not at a 10, what do you need to do to move it up the scale? The time to ask yourself key questions is now. Do your research, so you know what questions to keep in mind. Contact a career expert who can help you become reacquainted with your goals and dreams. Explore career websites. Take personality tests. You will find that the more time you invest in career opportunities and self-discovery, the more committed to the cause you'll become.

2. Learn to overcome obstacles.

To be successful in changing career paths, you need to learn to overcome obstacles you will encounter along the way. The obstacles I see time and time again for people wanting to make a career change are: not knowing what to look for in a job (so they take one that is "good enough" that they don’t truly enjoy) and negative beliefs--not believing they can successfully make the change. With practice, you can retrain your mind to see past perceived limitations, which are only a figment of your imagination anyway! With sufficient self-exploration, you will be able to pinpoint the exact qualities of the ideal career for you... and even the characteristics that you don't want in a career.

3. Get support.

I was able to very successfully make my career transition into coaching in large part because of my own coach. She helped me create my plan, remain positive, move forward, identify what I wanted to do and learn to overcome obstacles. I’m being honest when I say: It really helps to have support from a group or a coach to remind you to stay positive and focused. My contact information is below if you’d like more information from me.

4. Claim your life.

My last thought for you... is to claim your life. There never is a perfect time to make a drastic career change, and you can always come up with excuses/reasons not to. You do need to take some kind of risk and perhaps step out of your comfort zone. The key is to minimize the risk and be smart about it. Get support from a career coach like me or someone else who can provide solid guidance and the resources you need to move ahead with your plans.

If you have any questions about making a career change, discovering what type of career best suits your skills, or determining the key components of a career that fits, explore my website details below and then get in touch! I'd love to hear from you.

All the best for a rewarding and fulfilling career doing what you love!

Money Management Tips

"Tanya had been taught to save the money she received as birthday gifts, so every year she would watch the transparent piggy bank on her desk fill up and dream about what she would buy with it. It was on her 10th birthday her parents announced that she could open the piggy bank and buy whatever she wanted with it. Tanya counted the money, put it into the nice pink purse that her parents had bought her, got into the car with them and headed out to buy herself the cycle she had been eyeing for a few months."

How to Boost Your Personal Power and Command of Life

Source : Tipsforsuccess.org

You are about to read about one of the most effective self-improvement tools ever discovered. This one technique can do more for your mental strength, job performance and overall competence than dozens of self-help books or motivational seminars.

This simple formula eliminates self-criticism, fear and stress. It is applicable to any situation and works every time. You can use it repeatedly without limitation.

L. Ron Hubbard discovered the KRC Triangle in 1960.

"THE K-R-C TRIANGLE"

"The points are K for KNOWLEDGE, R for RESPONSIBILITY and C for CONTROL."

"It is difficult to be responsible for something or control something unless you have KNOWLEDGE of it."

"It is folly to try to control something or even know something without RESPONSIBILITY."

"It is hard to fully know something or be responsible for something over which you have no CONTROL, otherwise the result can be an overwhelm."

"Little by little one can make anything go right by

"INCREASING KNOWLEDGE . . . ,"

"INCREASING RESPONSIBILITY . . . ,"

"INCREASING CONTROL . . . ."

"If one sorts out any situation one finds oneself in on this basis, he will generally succeed."

"By inching up each corner of the KRC triangle bit by bit, ignoring the losses and making the wins firm, a being at length discovers his power and command of life." — L. Ron Hubbard

KRC Triangle Application Recommendations

Select a problem and write it down or type it into your computer. Then write or type the answers for each of these five steps.

1. Raise the Knowledge corner.

How can you increase your knowledge about the problem? What do you need to learn about it? What should you study to better understand the problem?

2. Raise the Responsibility corner.

How can you take more ownership for the problem? What parts of the problem are you responsible for? Can you accept responsibility for the parts you did not cause?

3. Raise the Control corner.

What part of the problem can you control? How could you take a little more control for the other parts?

4. Ignore the losses.

If you focus on losses or failures, they get bigger and more overwhelming. You then pull in even more losses. So find ways to ignore these losses.

If ignoring losses is difficult, try writing them down on a sheet of paper and then destroy the paper. Shift your attention. Stop talking or thinking about them. Avoid people who bring them up. Move on.

If you catch yourself dwelling on losses, knock it off. Put your attention elsewhere. Stop talking about losses. And learn to ignore the failures of others as well.

5. Make the wins firm.

What can you do to make your successes firm? How can you solidify them?

Maybe you can write them down or put them on a wall. Keep a record of your wins. Talk about them to everyone you can. Celebrate them.

Also, make a habit of finding and focusing on the wins of others. The more attention you put on success, the more success you get.

Some of your answers to these questions are easy, enjoyable steps. Do those right now! You will see a sudden improvement in the problem.

Then do the tougher steps you wrote. Once you start on them you will find they are not so tough after all.

If following these five steps does not completely solve the problem, repeat the steps until the problem is gone forever.

As well as solving problems for you, these steps will start to bring out the best in you. You will discover a new sense of command over life that you have always had, but never used.
