Topic: GETTING THAT FIRST JOB (INTERVIEW TIPS)

Hello HOUSE,

Getting that first job aint easy…………

Here's a reality check - There are some basic reasons why people don't get hired for the entry-level opportunities that do exist. First and foremost, employers pick whom they think is the best candidate. Being that best candidate isn't anybody else's responsibility. It's yours. Look at this list and honestly ask yourself if any of them fits you:

•Candidate can't express him/herself clearly
•Candidate has obviously exaggerated on the resume'
•Candidate isn't appropriately dressed for an interview
•Candidate is lying about something (a good screener can tell)
•Candidate is waiting to be handed the job opportunity on a platter of gold (Godfatherism, nepotism etc.)
•Candidate has poor interviewing skills
•Candidate has not done his/her homework to learn about the company

The bottom line is - Be realistic about what you can or should expect during an interview, and present your best self. Job search is always hard, no matter how good the market is or what you're looking for. Just be your best!

See U all @ d top!

Awareness.

Na Wah!
