Hi sifu's hope you can guide me. If on the 26th the company I went for interview call me to tell me I got the job and ask when can I start, is it ok I say Jan 20th???

QUOTE(Belphegor @ Jan 7 2015, 08:38 AM) If you were laid off and resting for 2 years, is better for you to come clean and tell them why you were laid off. Try not to hide anything from them because that could haunt you back if you got busted. Wasn't laid of. Just after graduating I took 2 years off??? |

QUOTE(midnightoil9191 @ Jul 6 2015, 04:48 PM) 5 Interview Tips You Can't Ignore Hi, today i missed a call from a company i applied for. I missed it this morning and till now they didn't call back. When i called back the telephone operator answered but i don't know the name of the person that called me and what position. What should i do now? Will they call me back or they already went on to new candidate???Having a great resume and cover letter got you an interview with a prospective employer. With dozens of candidates lining up for the same position, the kind of impression you leave the interviewer with determines whether you get the job... or not. Yet, many candidates neglect the basics of preparing for an interview – fail to plan, and you plan to fail. Whether you're a fresh graduate, experienced candidate or simply seeking an internship, here are 5 tips you should follow when interviewing for a new job. 1. ALWAYS Do Your Research You’d study for an exam – an interview should be no different. Do your research and do not rely on your prospective employer to tell you about their company during the interview. Familiarising with the company and its business demonstrates a genuine and sincere interested in working there. Look up their website and get to know their company profile, products, services, clients and competitors. Understand how the role and department you’ve applied for contributes to the company. Update yourself with the latest developments in the industry so you can converse intelligently and address any technical questions which might pop up. 2. Practice Makes Perfect You will not know exactly what your interviewer will ask, but there are some common questions you should expect: - Tell me about yourself - Why do you think you are the right candidate for the job? - What are your strengths and weaknesses? - Why did you leave your previous job? Practise in your own room or with a friend. It will help to put your thoughts together so you won’t be scrambling to find the right words during the interview. Also, take time to prepare questions you might have about the company and the position to demonstrate your interest. For example, find out about the company culture, goals of the company and for your role, and reporting structure for your position. 3. Be Punctual Sounds like a no brainer, but it actually matters that you get to your interview location on time. Aim to reach 10-15 minutes before your scheduled interview, at your interviewers’ office (not the building!) - Plan your travel time well in advance for: - traffic jams - being stuck in KL traffic is no excuse, you should already have expected it - the time it takes from parking your car to the office – you either will have to park in the office’s multi-storey car park, or outside the building. Plan how long it would take to find a parking spot and go up the lift. - going to the toilet - if you think you need to go before the interview, plan ahead. 4. Dress The Part Just like a picture, appearances speak a thousand words. Make a good first impression by being mindful of the appropriate attire for your interview and role. For corporate positions, wear professional attire - men should always wear a tie, and ladies, no short skirts, tight dresses and cleavage please. And both genders should avoid open-toed shoes. Check your hygiene, remove facial piercings and no chewing gum. 5. Follow Up Sending a ‘thank you’ email or handwritten note speaks highly of your character and initiative. Do this within 24 hours of the interview - address the interviewer by name, thank them for his/her time and remind the employer that you’re excited about the opportunity and how you are the right candidate for the job.

QUOTE(pkw @ Jul 9 2015, 03:17 PM) Yup, if you really want to grab the opportunity then go ahead lol. I want it, actually this morning i just miss the call by 1 second and ever since my phone is on me just waiting for them to call back. Thought they will call back after lunch but still no. I tried to call back but i scared it will be messy and trouble some bcs i don't know who made the call, after pass here pass there. Should i give it a day if no call by tmw afternoon then call back or just call them now??? Or email them again?Whether you got chosen for interview or your application was declined due to no vacancy, its better to check and make sure. . .. ... Unless you don't really want the job lol. |

QUOTE(pkw @ Jul 9 2015, 03:31 PM) Nah, it's fine. It's your courtesy to call-back and confirm with the person in-charge since you missed it. Ok thanks i'll give them till 4.30pm then i call again. But usually do they call back or they only call you once then move on?Normally there's only 1/2 person in-charge of employments so they should know who to transfer to. If you're worrying about other candidates, you can call now before they leave from work. |
