Take them in written down on an A4 pad (if you have an A4 presentation folder then even better) and when they come to the inevitable have you got any questions for us open the pad and say yes I have. If they have covered all your questions (probably won't but..) then just say as you can see I had questions but I am glad to say you have covered them. It shows interest in them as a company and someone keen as jonseys says to prepare for the IV. Never ask about salary, benefits or holidays. If they ask what you are looking for then say obviously money is important and I will consider your best offer. Never give them a range as guess where they'll go? Another question I always suggested candidates ask towards the end is to ask them what it was about the company that attracted them to join it? Good eye contact is an absolute must. And if here is a panel bring them all into the conversation by looking at them all as you answer questions. At the end of the interview thank them all for taking the time to meet with you and say you look forward to hearing from them. Don't waffle on and feel you have to continue chatting. As an aside people will tend to do more research and put more time and effort into organising a weekend away than an interview. Find out all you can about them and the people you are meeting if possible. From my experience of interviewing, there is a pre and post procedure to follow before the interview starts…. Pre is photocopying at least two forms of id including one with a photo, also read the new job specification to the potential employee…..then the interview starts. Post interview is reading out the company salary scale for the job, holidays, sickness and sickness pay, overtime, travelling and staying away overnight for training courses as well as what happens next, the interviewee takes a printed copy of the company general procedures mentioned above……………successful candidate gets a call personally from the person conduction the interview, the remainder get a letter from HR thanking them for their time. Thats my experience with a company I worked for, probably conducted around 15 interview sessions with up to 5 people being interviewed in each session. I’ve Never worked for anyone else though so cannot comment on other ways of doing this. Edited March 23, 2022 by highlandjambo3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ribble Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 17 hours ago, Sirudi said: Get on the internet and try and do some homework on the company/ job. Make sure you have some questions to ask at the end of the interview when they ask if you have any questions. Nothing worse than a “no”. Keep them centred on the job, such as “what are the promotion prospects”, and not along the lines of “how many holidays do I get”. I personally wouldn’t send a follow up email, but I would recommend at the end of the interview you thank them, look them in the eye and shake their hand. Always makes a good impression in my experience. Good luck ! Don't ask about promotion, focus on the role being applied for and ask questions such as 'if there was one thing I could magically fix in the first week, what would it be?' I agree not to ask about holidays in the interview, that's something to ask before the interview, if a company isn't willing to disclose how much they are willing to pay you either directly or in benefits then they really aren't likely to be an employer that really values you and there's no point wasting everyone's time by going through the interview process to then discover that the salary or holidays etc aren't acceptable to you.

Eldar Hadzimehmedovic Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 On the dreaded "what are your weaknesses" question, don't dress up a strength as a weakness, they can see right through that. Honesty is better. And frame it around something you are aware of and working on, rather than a weakness. One of the best answers I've heard was someone who said they were working on getting better at asking for input from others and fully utilising the skills of everyone around them. Also, a good question I heard once was around expectations - if someone asked you in a couple of months how the new employee was working out, what would you like to see from me to make the answer to that 'excellent'?

kila Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 You should take a folder with a few notes so you can remember questions you want to ask. You could have a 'cheat' sheet you can look over in the waiting room with the key points you want to get across, information about company etc but best to put that away during the interview. Take a couple of pens too, and be ready to scribble a few things during the interview such as questions that pop into your head that might fade before you get a chance to ask.

Statts1976uk Posted March 24, 2022 Share Posted March 24, 2022 I had two interviews about 18 months ago for internal roles and I asked for feedback when I didn't get the first one. I used that for the second one which was a more senior role. I was told not to try and fill in uncomfortable silences, say what I needed to say and get my point across but without the waffle. Take a brief moment to think about the question and not just jump straight in or even worse pre-empt the question. I knew the interviewers well and I suppose that showed in my approach. Second interview was I was much more measured in my approach. The weakness question is always a difficult one but what I did was say what it was then what I was doing about it. Last thing is to have a question or two for when they ask you if you have any questions. I like to have two, one about personal development within the company and one about where they see the post/company in 2 years or 5 years. It shows that you are looking into the future of the role etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could have a 'cheat' sheet you can look over in the waiting room with the key points you want to get across, information about company etc but best to put that away during the interview. Take a couple of pens too, and be ready to scribble a few things during the interview such as questions that pop into your head that might fade before you get a chance to ask. A wee read on what sort of notes are appropriate and why they could give a good impression: https://www.edenindoors.co/can-you-take-notes-into-an-interview/ Good suggestion. Re taking a pen: paper in with you with any notes . Nothing at all wrong with that . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
