gOOters November 16, 2004 Share gOOters Member November 16, 2004 Take a look at ALOT of interview questions online and recite your answers a few times. Have an answer to the age old "toughies", what are your weaknesses? describe a challenge in the workplace you have overcome? how do you deal with personal conflicts? goals? etc...

Magruter November 21, 2004 Author Share Magruter Member November 21, 2004 Interview went well, I think i really blew there minds away. The term the ask for lemons and you give them lemonade. Well i did that with every negative question they asked: i.e. what is your one of you "development" areas, have you ever missed a deadline. And everytime i answered the questions, they said "i like that response." Also i had a Great time with the interview. I don't think i've had that much fun in an interview. The people were really nice. So i should here something the first week in december. I hate waiting....... Thanks everyone for your care. I'll keep you updated with any results Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
General J November 21, 2004 Share General J Member November 21, 2004 Yeah, waiting is the worst. Make sure and send them a "Thank you for your time!" letter and let them know you appreciate the oppurtunity to get their money. Just keeps your name fresh in their minds, ya know. Just don't be obnoxious about it. I really dislike interviewing. Always feel very much in the hot seat. Hopefully, once I get outta school, I can find a job interview that is fun. Then I will know I found the right place to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gOOters November 21, 2004 Share gOOters Member November 21, 2004 Ditto J's post. Waiting is the worst. It sux! Also, be SURE to send a thank you note ASAP!! Even if it is just an email. GL, keep us posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
