I disagree with this point, if already working, then it Is the only way to go. There is no reason to quit the current job and only after that find another.
Finding another job could take a few months, suppose it takes 6 months, there will be a gap in the resume and this is normally not a good thing to have. To me it also shows lack of planning ahead.

I don't consider the action requires any justification, it is well with the rights of the employee, and most have a provision for it in the contract.

Added on February 25, 2008, 12:09 pmwhat are you asking about? how to put in the 1month work in a good way? if you had learned something useful from it, maybe you can elaborate on that.

but this one of those times where honesty doesnt help.

depends on what position you are applying to. if you have some experience in the field just mention it. if you are a fresh grad try to bring some internship/uni project/course which u feel will help in that role.

when this question is asked you should already know what the job requires and what skills are necessary. If not just ask in more detail during the interview.

my 2sen.

there are a few different opinions on this. For me with this question is to break the ice. You dont have to repeat everything thats from your cv. Just the highlights. name, qualification and also some interests/internships/previous work experience that is related to the post you are applying for. The interviewer will usually then zoom in to the examples you mentioned, and from there on it gets pretty simple.

just to add that the next possible question is do you have an example of this, so do prepare abit for that, it could be from a previous job or if a fresh grade from university team assignments etc.

also confront is a rather strong word, just say you would ask/approach him/her or something similar.
