Dress for success

Judge from the position you are interviewing for and find out the dress code of the organization. Groom yourself appropriately.

Organize your documents

Get yourself organized with the many documents that you take to the interview. Put them either by function or in chronological order and know exactly where to retrieve a particular document out of the many.

Equip yourself
Take with you the necessary documents, extra copies of resumes and reference letters, note pads and stationery.

Anticipate ahead of time

Wear the hat of the interviewer and think what kind of questions you will be asked. This includes personal topic that are not directly relevant to the job. Be prepared to handle them tactfully.

Rehearse at least once

Talking to yourself or speaking `silently` in your head is not enough. Practice the interview with someone. It makes a difference.

My Questions to the Interviewer

An interview is a two-way communication! Get yourself prepared not only to answer your interviewer`s questions, take the opportunity to find out more about the job and the company. Some interviewers test your sincerity by asking if you have any questions. Be prepared with a list of questions handy! Here are some suggestions:

Research! Research! Research!

As a preparation for the interview, you should research about the company, and, if possible, your interviewer and develop from there some relevant and intelligent questions. This shows that you do care enough that you spend time learning about the company. Rehearse the answers to these questions once and see if your questions generate other questions and prepare yourself accordingly.

Only ask questions that you cannot find answers yourself. For example, "I learn from the research that xxxxxxxxxx xxxxxx. How would that impact the department I am working for." This is the part personnel consultant can provide great help.

Replacing someone?

If you know you are replacing someone, you may want to ask what is the biggest challenge faced by the person you are replacing.

Salary - Leave it till later!

In general, it is not wise to touch on salary or benefits at this stage. This gives your interviewer an impression that your are more interested in what the company can do for you; versus how you can contribute to the company. However, it is fair to ask about opportunities for advancement, training programs.

"Sorry, I do not quite catch some part of your question..."

Throughout the interview, feel free to ask questions or rephrase for clarification if you do not understand your interviewer, for example, on jargon or acronyms. Do not assume or pretend. However, be sensitive and attentive in listening so that you do not ask the interviewer to repeat the questions too many times.

The Power of Body Language in An Interview

In any personal interaction, non verbal cues are equally, if not more important than verbal ones. Following are some tips to exploit body language to demonstrate professionalism and performance.

It is prudent to arrive early! How then would you spend the time when waiting for the interviewer? It is too late to review notes any way, instead, glance through any literature that you find in the waiting area. This portrays that you are confident even in occasions as such.

Greet your interviewer with a firm handshake to demonstrate that you are not nervous.

If you are not invited to sit, take the initiative to sit across from or alongside the interviewer. Do not ask if you should sit.

Allow a reasonable space of at least 1m (one meter) between yourself and the interviewer, providing a comfortable social zone to both.

Seat yourself in a relaxed, balanced posture. Hold your body upright without being stiff. Avoid distracting gestures or making too many hand gestures. If the interview is interrupted by a phone call, occupy yourself with reading your own material. This is a gesture of your being considerate in sense of privacy. Do not appear annoyed. There is no need to offer to leave the office.

Keep eye contact and lean forward when emphasizing important messages to project sincerity. Looking away or looking down, leaning back signal that you are not confident of what you are telling. However, do not overdo eye contact. A look in the eye for more than 10 seconds can cause anxiety and tension.

Beware not to excessively clear the throat, use mannerisms such as `hmmm`, `uh`, `eh` - they tend to be distracting.

Change your facial expressions to match the message - smile at the appropriate times signifies friendliness, good eye contact conveys frankness.

Pay attention and listen actively to your interviewer. Fiddle with things exposes that you are either impatient or feeling tense.

Be polite to everyone you meet. They all count. Do not act overly casual, no chewing gum, no smoking. Thank your interviewer with the same warmth you begin the interview, a firm handshake, a sincere smile.

Be sensitive to your interviewer`s expression too! Yet don`t be oversensitive and imagine hidden meanings in gestures.

Interviewers who do not maintain eye contact hint that they are disinterested, irritated or in time to end the interview.

Interviewers who frown may be expressing disbelief in what you are telling.

Clutched arms or running their fingers along their noses may mean disagreeing with you.

Finger drumming and other fidgeting mannerisms project an impression that the interviewer is not paying attention.

Resume Writing Tips

INTRODUCTION

What is a resume?

A resume is one of the most important documents of your professional career. Simply put, the resume can be described as a brief document that highlights any academic qualifications, professional experience/expertise and any other information regarding the profession and professional life of a person.

The challenge of writing a good resume

Writing a resume that effectively summarizes experience, skills and competencies is challenging for many people. A good resume will effectively promote you.

A good resume is piece of paper that takes 10-30 seconds to read and effectively helps you land a job interview.

These are some tips for Preparing a Resume

What Do Employers Want?

Before diving into the resume writing, let’s focus on the mindset of the hiring managers in order to understand the main features to include in your resume.

What Do Employers look for when reading your resume

Working in a company means following a system and being consistently productive. Though this cannot be proven within the first few minutes, your resume can work for you.

Your resume is the best weapon you have in your hunt for a job, and a well written one wins half the battle for you.
Here are some quick pointers:

o    Equivalents between the job requirements and your qualifications. Employers actually look for similarities between your previous jobs and the new position that they wish to fill.

o    They wish to see a steady upward curve in your career graph.

o    Employers want winners. Have you achieved goals? Write about actions you took to achieve goals and the positive results.

o    Employers would want to observe your competencies. Each job requires a unique set of skills – Behavioral/personal skills and technical skills.

First Quick Tips for a Winning Resume

·         Avoid the one-size-fits-all resume, if you want to take your job search seriously.

·         Do not use the same resume for every job opportunity out there – It is a strategy that will lead to nowhere.

·         First and foremost, refer to the section of the job opening where it lists Specification, Job Description, Requirements, or any other selection criteria listed therein.

For example:

Teamwork: If a job requires experience working in a team, ensure that each of the positions on your resume includes detailed descriptions of your experience working in a team.

Managerial positions: If you are aiming for three different positions, such as – project manager, product manager or program manager, these three positions are similar but have different requirements. Therefore, write three versions of resumes showcasing how you meet the job requirements and personality traits needed for each position.

·         Your key/strongest assets in terms of any employer could be your work history, education, skills and career achievement.

·         Try to evaluate the key aspect for each job you apply for. Then, make the best case for you background, strengths, education or experience.

Grab the attention of the hiring managers by presenting your best arguments in the opening lines of your resume.

Deciding On the Resume Format

The three most common resume types are the chronological resume, the functional resume and the combination resume.

Here are some guidelines to help you decide on the right format:

·         Chronological Resume

Ø A chronological resume is best for people who have advanced in their professional life by working in different companies.

Ø This type of resume can basically be considered as a time line of a person’s progress from one job position to a superior one.

Ø If you have many years of experience, filled different positions and roles within different companies and would want to show a career up-curve, the chronological resume may fit your needs.

·         Functional Resume

Ø A functional resume is basically used by a person who has too much experience or too little, or a singular responsibility.

Ø A functional resume is basically used by a person who has held a number of job-positions in a single or very few companies.

Ø If you have just started out, do not have much experience and are aiming for entry           level jobs, the functional resume would suit your needs.

·         Combination Resumes

Ø A combination resume is actually a good combination of the chronological resume and the functional resume.

Ø The combination resume makes a note of your work history, as well as giving special attention to your qualities and qualifications on a professional level.

Ø If you haven’t changed too many jobs but filled many roles within a certain company, the functional resume or combination resume would be perfect for you.

Depending on your current professional situation, you’d have to decide which type of resume format to select

Creating a Resume Draft

Realize that you will have to create multiple resumes. Since the point of targeting is to create a specific resume for a specific job, you may find that writing and revising multiple resumes is time consuming.

Here are suggested data to include in this draft:

Contact details
Name
Address: Street, City, State, Zip
Phone (Home and Cell, 2 numbers to list)
Email Address (it is recommended to use your name as an email address, for example your name @ gmail.com)

Career summary (optional)
Describe you major professional skills and expertise with No. of years of experience.

Objective (optional)
Focus your statement on the position you’re aiming for.
Hint about your advantages and the benefits you’d bring to the position.

Work History – Experience & Achievements
Review your experience background in reversed order from the recent to oldest. List job title, company name, location, & employment dates (years)
Use action verbs as an active, expressive way to describe your achievements.
List major achievements per job and also include professional knowledge developed or promotions/appraisals you’ve received.

Key Skills
Highlight technical skills that you have through experience. You can also consider including your key personal skills that can make you an attractive candidate. Use keywords to detail these skills. Related Competencies that you feel are important to the position you are seeking – General personal skills, computer skills and/or technological skills.

Education
List educational degrees and institutions you’ve graduated from. List related professional courses and certifications received that are relevant to the targeted position.

References
Consider including 3 names and contact details of references.

Job target
Make a list of the requirements per each job posting for which you are going to send your resume – Skills, education/qualifications and job description. You will need this information for targeting your resume to this particular job.

What is a good Career Objective to put on a Resume?

Everyone knows the standard resume needs a career objective. But why? Is it because everyone assumes you have to have one? Is it because hiring managers require it? What would happen if you had the most comprehensive and impressive career objective that others were measured against?

The Career Objective should not be:
1. A meaningless set of dribble to fake out the reader
2. A set of words that have no tie to the candidate`s wants, needs or desires for their future.
3. A creation of disconnected terms and ideas that have no business being put together without internal assessment

Companies need to fill positions within their organization with the best qualified individual(s). Hiring managers will review hundreds of resumes with the first 30 seconds being crucial to getting to the second stage.

Your career objective is a one sentence character representation of who you are and sets the stage for the message you want to deliver. - "This is who I am, who I want to be and how I will make your company successful"

Career Objective Examples

a.       “Sales manager position where my skills and experience can be effectively utilized for increased profitability and product sales volume by developing a dynamic team.”

b.       “Obtain a position as a team-player in a people-oriented organization where I can maximize my customer-service experience in a challenging environment to achieve the corporate goals.”

c.        “To obtain a position as a School Teacher that will utilize my strong dedication to children’s development and to their educational needs.”

Work Experience – Work History in a Resume

Your background could be one of your best assets.

The work experience is one of the first things that employers look for. They would want to assess your work history (i.e. background) as the first aspect about you as a potential employee.

Employers do not like reading those long lists of job duties/responsibilities. They are actually interested in the main/major accomplishments and responsibilities per job title – no more.

How to list the resume work experience

    List your previous jobs in reverse order – the most recent first.
    You don’t have to specify months per employer timeline – years are ok.

Resume gaps: Employment gaps, dates and other issues in work history

    Gaps: As a rule of thumb, if you have more than one year of an employment gap for any reason, do not leave these years blank – It will be noticed and considered as a negative point about you.
    Dates: Employers are interested in reading about the years of work history that are relevant and related to the position you are applying for. It is okay to specify any relevant background as long as it provides significant information regarding your skills and ability to do the job.

List Your Achievements in the Resume

                What person would you choose if you were an employer? A person with past record, achievements, who accomplished something in career or someone who fulfilled duties, tasks and “was responsible for” – You will undoubtedly prefer a result oriented person.

If you write in term of achievements you prove in the most effective way that you have the required competencies, you are motivated, self-aware and that you’re a performer. What else do you need to communicate to the reader?

Types of achievements
The section which lists achievement in a resume (professional experience mostly), has to show progress or enhancement, such as:

    An organizational problem that you solved.
    Any initiative that led to constant benefits, high revenues or improved quality.
    Any positive difference that you have made in sales numbers, costs and profits?
    Any successful project that increased the company’s reputation.

Sample Resume Achievements

    Saved $15 million annually by reducing fixed spending by 10% and variable overhead spending by 19% through a variety of cost-improvement initiatives through better utilization of resources.

·         Developed and implemented client service program, which expanded small-to-medium client base by 35%.

The Skills Section in the Resume

Employers would like to evaluate 3 types of skills when hiring employees: Content Skills, Functional Skills, and Self Management Skills:

    * Content skill is the amount of knowledge (qualifications and experience) the candidate possesses in a certain field.

    * Functional Skills are people-oriented skills such as communicating, organizing and managing.

    * Self Management Skills are your personal characteristics such as helper, self-learner, multi-tasker etc.

Based on the job description, you can include a skills section in your resume to specify your personal and/or technical skills.

Here are examples: Personal Skills

Skills for Project Manager

    * An experienced team leader with the ability to initiate/manage cross-functional teams and multi-disciplinary projects
    * Critical thinking, decision making and problem solving skills
    * Planning and organizing
    * Excellent Personal Communication skills

General management skills

    * Persuasion, leadership, negotiation and delegation skills
    * Conflict resolution
    * Adaptability
    * Tolerance for stressful situations

Technical skills

This particular candidate is a software engineer (see how many industrial keywords are written here).

    * Languages: C#, C++, ASP.NET, SQL, PHP, HTML, Java Script, XML
    * Softwares: InstallShield, Visio, CruiseControl.NET, Flash, Dreamweaver
    * Platforms: Windows Vista, XP, 2003 and UNIX
    * Databases: SQL Server 2000 & 2005, MS Access
    * Version Controls: Visual SourceSafe

The Education Section in a Resume

Your education is definitely one of your biggest assets. Use your education in your resume with care. It can be an essential element that can lead you to be called for the job interview.

In general, educational information follows the job experience section or the key skills section in a resume – towards the end of your resume.

However, the place where you insert the information about your education depends on your work experience. If you have just graduated and/or don’t have many years of experience, your greatest asset is obviously your education – not your experience.

Therefore, in this case, put the education section before your work history section.

Here are some pointers to consider:

   1. If you have a solid work experience, list it first in your resume.
   2. If your education is a stronger asset than your job experience, list it first.
   3. If your education is highly relevant to your new position, you may consider listing it first.
   4. If you have no employment experience, but have a degree or training in that field, list your education first.

Other Qualification to include

You may consider including any coursework, related training, or certifications you have received. If you received licenses, include the name/type of the license. You can also include a separate section called “Training & Certification”, “Special Training”, or “Professional Licenses”, etc. If you have achieved honors, make sure to include it.

How to write the education section

EDUCATION

[University Name], [Location]

Bachelor of Science in [Area field], May 1995

Significant Coursework (optional, only if you find it important): [a], [b], [c] etc.

Resume Headers/Headlines

The resume consists of various sections/paragraphs in which you can highlight your background and skills.

Headers for the Resume Sections

You must select or invent headings that show you in the best possible light and are relevant to the job for which you are applying – one usually puts the most recent or impressive information first.

HEADINGS ABOUT YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION

Name, Address, Phone No., Mobile, Fax, E-mail

Personal, Personal Data/Details, Summary, History, Profile

HEADINGS SUMMARIZING WHAT YOU HAVE DONE

Career Overview/Summary, Career Highlights/Achievements
