Have quite a few of take-back from the workshop:
1) Go to an Interview as if that that is the only interview one will be having. Because the mental state will react as according to TRY & MUST. If with the TRY mentality, most likely it will be only a TRY outcome. On the other hand if it is a MUST mentality, one will do anything to get the job.
2) Need to know ourselves:
- Whats our beliefs & self-worth
- Whats our Unique Selling Point
Many times we may feel that what we do in our current job everyday was just a routine, and it isnt anything great to say about and boast about. BUT this is not the correct mentality! If thats the case, how are we going to go through the interview? We need not to boast, we can just try to relate the tasks we did to the job u are applying, even if industries maybe different. But at least it can hightlight individual's attitude and soft skill capabilities. Another issue on this point, somehow we feel embrassed when we said "We Are Good." haha... I feel that we are humble people, partially this is also a sign of lack of confidence.
3) Before interview, try to set our mind. Think of smething good. Something that make one confident. Because once something bad falls in, one's brain will keep on relating that bad things & eventually affect ur mood and confidence for the interview.
4) Show Interest (I think I am lacking in this area... haha...)
- Search for the company's information. What are her core businesses/products, stock price?
- Ask quesion. "Whats the Training & Development opportunity?" "Future direction of the company?" "What the company expectation of me?"
- After the interview, sent a Thank You card or email.
A sentence Chin Hui used that I feel is important:
"Let the interviewer feels that it is a commitment, not a transation."
This shows the one is serious about the job.
