what kind of person are you looking for this job?

subconcious communication

Subconscious communication – non verbal clues –

Eye contact – show interest to ppl who are you talking to

If not – miss info

Problem: not ask right question

What are you looking for the kind of person for the position? What are the criteria when you looking for the kind of person for this kind of job function?

When you get the information, you can Present specifically for the background, when during the interview, they say, tell me about yourself, to start

Tell me to explain them specifically about myself and for the position, what kind of person you are looking for this job, and they start to tell you that we need someone that works alone or work with ppl or someone that has this kind of specific skills, now that you gonna tailor your background to okay, well, I work great with ppl, that what I’ve been doing or volunteering that event that I work with ppl, start to present the specific information about your background that fit specifically with the need of that position, and it not that only one person, for that many job interviewers , so be serious of ppl , manager, or human recourse manager all have different criteria for what is important for that position.

Mistake – clothing

Presenting yourself, branding yourself, if causal –will give miss message that are you professional for the position, so you want to dress either for the position or above, mean yo already for the position of management or position that you are looking for a promotion. What you are wearing – image – image of are you professional, are you the kind of person for the company. You want to pay attention to everything – the suit, the clothing, or even the shoes , you wanna make sure your shoes are polished.

Motion – make your move around in your job interview, your presentation, whatever you are talking, who are you talking to. Ppl have misconception of moving quickly and moving your task that they’re going to impress the person and expert say that if ppl move too quickly – they give the mis massage that ppl who are moving quickly, they are at the edge of losing control! So you manna slow down your motion to be more graceful?

When you think about ppl empower, - present a sense of confident and sense of control, then will quite confidence to the person they are talking to

Is that appropriate to send a thank you note to the person who was conduct the interview?

yes, you could – one is that you could follow up

- the other is appropriate that you also could – in your email – g pick? With picture, because the more they see you , they more then with you! And also if the interview is 10 to 20 ppl, you will be stand up more by flowing up, by reminding them you are, what you are good at., specifically why you are the right person of that position and also with your picture in there to remind them who you are
