Thanks a lot for this, I've been looking for this when I had to sollicitate for internship, but there was nothing in Dutch (I did manage to get the internship though). Never thought of looking into English things.
Now I was randomly stumbling (stumbleupon), and came across this. It's about the last bit of information, filling in the blanks of what I already knew. Only thing left is to practice somehow :)

Travelin' Mike said...

These are all great questions. Awesome post.

Anonymous said...

Very annoying questions. I interview people a lot, and I must ask 6 of these dumb questions to fill in the spaces, and I tell the candidate that HR wants me to fill them up, then move on to the real thing; the details of what the job is in the first place.

These are the standard questions from the average HR. Unfortunately they really don't relate to the jobs most professionals are looking for.

interview preparation said...

jog your memory for some details that you can cite during the interview. CareerBuilder.com recently asked about 3,000 hiring managers about interview blunders by job candidates, and 30% said "not offering specific answers to interview questions" was a common and detrimental gaffe.

This will surely help candidates studying Human Resource management. These are the standard questions from the average HR. Unfortunately they really don't relate to the jobs most professionals are looking for.

interview coaching said...

Often, when it is asked, the hiring manager is implying that it is necessary for the position or it could be in the long term. If it does not fit your lifestyle, state that.

Hi there,

I'm working on a site called promotioncoach.info, a free resource for people looking for guidance to advance their career. I stumbled upon your site and was curious if you might be interested in a link exchange -- we'd drop a link to your site in return for the same on yours.

Over time, it should mutually help improve our search result rankings and overall web traffic. I figured our sites were related enough that it could help expand our networks. Please let me know if you'd be interested! Thanks,
