Interviewing Hints

The Crystal Coast Group has arranged thousands of interviews. Window shoppers never accurately present themselves and harm future prospects by wasting time.

• Be certain that what you desire is not available with your current employer. Before you commit to interview:

1. Define your goals and your next position.

2. Share your goals with your boss.

• Prepare yourself to accept or reject offers based on the merits of each situation independently. A decision based on how another company responds may be default decision and not in your best interest.

Proper planning will help you achieve the two main interviewing objectives of making a positive impression and gathering information.

• A positive impression places the ball in your court.

  1. Dress properly, work on body language, and research the company.

  2. Learn what problems need solving and portray your experiences as solutions to those problems.

•  Information leads to your decisions.

  1. What are the expected goals of the position?

  2. What challenges must be overcome to meet the goals?

  3. Is the team together on the expectations of this position?

Never initiate compensation discussions. Always ask how you did, and confirm the next step in the process.
